Happy Columbus Day long weekend to everyone who works for the government! I work tomorrow, and had to laugh after seeing this week's The Office (on DVR of course, I'm never home to watch live TV)--Robert California gave Andy a hard time for wanting a three day weekend for the office for Columbus Day:
"You want a three and a half day weekend for Columbus Day? And you are aware Columbus and his legions committed genocide against an entire civilization of Native Americans?"
Anyway, it's been a great week. Unfortunately, last night, the restaurant group at the Verizon Center accidentally lost my boyfriend's credit card, so that put a small damper on our great night with his brother and friends, but we ended up having a fun time anyway--plus the Caps won their season opener! Before I went to the game, I had volunteered at the Virginia Arboretum's Blandy Farm at their annual Arbor Fest with a few members of the Tenfold Forty and we helped make scarecrows for kids. It was so tiring, but we had a good time! Today I went to my friend's pumpkin carving party which was a blast--she had provided paints, carving tools, some snacks and drink, and it was just really nice relaxing and carving a pumpkin. This is what I ended up doing for my pumpkin!
This week, I'm traveling to Manhattan for work to host a delgation of Chinese officals with my boss, am attending both of my classes, and then have a fun and relaxing weekend planned: dinner with a friend from college on Saturday night, and an Oktoberfest girls brunch at another friend's house on Sunday!
