April 10, 2011

Although this morning was a rather rude awakening after last night, it has been a surprisingly productive day.  With the aid of a strong pot of caffeine, the Executive Board sifted through the summer staff applications over the course of three hours to create the best incoming staff possible.  After a short lunch break, the outgoing Editorial Board met with the incoming Board to discuss goals, advice, and the transition process.  Then, from the comfort of my couch, I developed our staff training materials and resources for next weekend.  The best part of such a productive day?  An empty inbox.  We'll see how long it lasts.

Little black dress.  Sky-high heels.  Champagne.  Hot pink wig.  All of this, multiplied by twelve, made up Alice's bachelorette party tonight.  After donning our wigs, dealing out dare cards, and buddying up, the twelve of us made our arrival on Sixth Street for an incredible evening of classy debauchery.  Now, I'm sure it is not often one sees a gang of pink-haired ladies downtown, but I cannot understand why so very many people clamored to have their pictures taken with us tonight.  It was almost impossible to move from one place to the next without a dozen or more people running up to us to take photos.  Regardless of this awkward aspect of the evening, we had an absolutely fantastic time and are all looking forward to celebrating Alice and Dustin's wedding next month.
