One of our project managers at work had her last day, as she decided to move on to a different job after six years. We had a little after-school gathering to send her off. Really diverse group of people from around the company. Diana met me there too, so she could finally put faces to names (and people could see I didn't make her up).

I realized that I do work with a lot of very cool people. The last few months in particular I've tried to deepen the connection with people I can relate to, or generally find interesting. It's kind of hard to interact socially because of the distance to home, and it's a bitch a lot of the time to get people to go to lunch. Far too many over-achievers that sacrifice lunch for another meeting!

Anyway, good times. Would've stayed longer but Diana and I were pretty anxious to get some real food (which ended up sucking, which is unusual for Mustard Seed Market).
