Tails of a 17th Street Geisha

Technically it’s tuesday. It’s ten past midnight. I’m at work. I’m not alone though. I’m here with Diane and three other techies. At one point it was a big party with one of the techie dads in the house. He brought pizza. How sweet.

So I’ve spent the night at offices before, namely when working like a crazy woman the night before major conferences at the Feminist Majority Foundation. I’ve done it twice at the FMF, once on each coast! I remember staying until 3am and getting up at 6am for an event, the Ms. Comes to Washington breakfast… I was helping with the staff there who couldn’t mail merge name tags to save their lives. I love stepping in at the last minute to save the day!

I don’t intend to spend the night here, but I did want to stop the presses and share this moment, my pioneering longest day at work! I woke up at 6am, ran 3 miles, came into work by 8:30 and I’m working until whenever these techies leave. I don’t HAVE to be here, but I don’t want to leave Diane alone with these weird men! She also shouldn’t be alone at the office. I’m going down with the ship with her! That sounds dirty, ew.

I’m getting a lot done and I’m actually pretty excited about being at work this late. If you’re going to work hard–go nuts! My workaholic mode is on full steam and I’m so excited that it’s Monday!

You know my ass is sleeping in though!

Back to work
