Work today. I was really exhausted when I woke up. There was no way I was going to make it all day so when I got to work I asked Felicity if I could skip the lecture tonight. I made really good progress at work, then I got to take it easy in the afternoon while the meeting was going on in the office. I had a very relaxing evening when I got back home. I had some pizza, watched a movie and did more packing - basically packed everything I could at the moment. T...

Work today was more of the same. Although I did make some pretty serious progress on the maps. After work we had our EPA farewell dinner. this was really fun. It was at a greek restaurant, we had a separate room, and they just kept bringing us little dishes of lots of greek food which I don't know/remember the names of but they were delicious nonetheless.

The first two, about the London Fair in 1951, were interesting. The third one was a move about Metro-Land, the development of suburbs all around London. This was really boring and long. the narrator, a really famous British Architecture historian, was incredibly boring and awkward. He wo...

Pretty successful day today. I got up at 11 and worked on my paper until 4 (of course with procrastination breaks every now and then). I'm pretty certain that I did better on this paper than the last one. Let's home my professor feels the same way. After finishing the paper I watched Christmas movies (White Christmas and Elf) and started packing. I got all of my gifts, essentially all that I bought, to comfortably fit into my carryon luggage with some room to s...
