Wow, that was a heck of a trip.
I finally made it back from Miami, lol. Already moved out of the apartment in DC and back in California looking for a job! It's great to be home.

argh
The people in the apartment above me have been sweeping, or otherwise scraping the floor loudly, for a good 20 minutes. How is there that much to sweep!? Thank goodness I'm not studying for the GRE, because that would be really distracting.

Time Poverty
It's been...let's see, almost 6 months since I started my fellowship, and I am again suffering from time poverty. I knew it was only a matter of time (haha) before it happened. I have only one thing to blame: the GRE. And perhaps the Red Cross, but that's old news.
This is an all-GRE weekend...one three hour class today, and another tomorrow. Add in church, dinner at Taylar's, and my first disaster call (!) and already I'm sleep deprived. Sleep deprived, but happy. Life is meant to be busy, but not so busy that it is exhausting.
My first DAT call was pretty cool. Luckily there was only one person displaced so it was a good training experience for me. And it makes my Red Cross low of last week (felt like no one was getting anything done) disappear.
Alright...off to catch the S something up to Columbia Heights for a tasty Indian meal.

It doesn't belong to you!
So I remembered what I wanted to blog about. For several years I have noticed that when referring to the work or possessions of their organization they use "I" or "my." For example, "I have a great program that involves thousands of volunteers" or "My board meets four times a year." These people do not represent the work of all their staff and they claim that organizational entities actually belong to them. Ridiculous.
