Finished my last day...it wasn't too bad.

It'a amazing how nice it can be when you go in KNOWING you NEVER have to go back!

They gave me flowers and a little picture. One of the lab techs gave me flowers too (she was one of the only people out of the departent I told I was leaving)

My friend gave me a cheer leader ribbon so I've tied it on my running hat for tomorrow (H9927 will be sporting a hot pink hat with a white ribbon on the back of it)

Got my race packet and a whole lot of other stuff. Picked up a massage stick at the expo along with info for masters swim and a few other races...Question about the masters swim--a 1 mile ocean swim June 15--my OWS skills are umm for lack of a better word...weak. I'm thinking that swim needs to wait till next year, what do Nibbs think?

barqhead - 2008-04-04 4:53 PM The general consensus is 6 months. The good news is I ran 6 miles today and had no problems. In fact, it was one of my best training runs of the year!

Congratulations on your last day!!!!! 
So are you going to burn all of your scrubs now????  (you are going to office now, correct?)

Have fun tomorrow!!!!

Congratulations on your last day!!!! 

Ocean swim or river swim?  there's a 1 mile swim in the James in June.  I've done it before with very little OWS experience.  It actually wasn't too bad.  I was one of the last to finish, but that's ok.

 

zipp1 - 2008-04-05 12:19 PM Part of me says burn them...part says give them to my friends (one is losing weight and should fit them soon, the other is pregnant and will need to get bigger ones--the joys of wearing a medium so my legs don't look huge...

Helpful as ever, Dee If I weren't afraid of getting struck by lightning or repeated blows to the head and face with large hail, this really wouldn't be much of a problem. Stupid thunderstorms...

So now you're considering removing all of your toenails?????

D001 - 2008-04-04 8:24 PM Congratulations on your last day! As for the OWS.... How "weak" is weak, exactly? 'Cause you've have some good pool workouts. (I've seen them listed in your log.) And how much experience have you had in open water previously? Have you ever tried swimming where the OWS will be held? I'm full of questions tonight.

Artemis - 2008-04-04 8:47 PM Hi Nibbs!  Just a drive by posting.  I'm getting ready for the race and heading to bed now.

D001 - 2008-04-05 1:19 PM Are you suggesting that we celebrate all weekend? I think that's a good idea. CAKE and ICE CREAM for everyone!

D001 - 2008-04-05 1:29 PM I've decided that.... It's not all about Hector. It's not all about Cat.... But it COULD be all about chocolate. And I'd be OK with that.

enders_shadow - 2008-04-05 5:26 AM MORNING NIBBS! I'm up at this ungodly hour on a Saturday, eating my beloved Mojo Bar & Diet Pepsi pre-race meal because then I'm off to the races!!!
