Tomorrow's my last day of work! Crazy. I've gone back and forth between feeling sad, excited, nervous, anxious, thrilled, and so many more emotions all week. It's just hard to believe I'm really leaving. I'm really going to miss working there.
Monday is my official start date with the court, but I'll be spending Monday-Friday in Austin at a Professional Development conference learning about court administration things. I'm sure I'm going to learn a lot of great things, but I'm really looking forward to staying in a nice hotel all week and being away from a computer for an entire week. I've decided not to take my laptop with me (I'll have my iPhone though) so I'll be a little disconnected from the world. A little disconnection sounds VERY good right now.
I finished reading Lauren Weisberger's Last Night at Chateau Marmont and was kind of disappointed. I've always loved her books (The Devil Wears Prada, Everyone Worth Knowing, Chasing Harry Winston), but this one was weak. The main character Brooke was a complete pushover and just when you think she's finally going to do the right thing for herself, she goes right back to being a weak, silly girl. Usually Lauren's characters are refreshing and women you can identify with or want to be friends with but not this main character. All I wanted to do was slap her!
Next I'm reading Brunonia Barry's The Lace Reader, a book about a woman who is able to read the future by looking at patterns of lace. So far, so good, and very unique.
