Back to Life. Back to Reality

So, mid-Olympics, I left for vacation (super quick recap coming), and since returning, life has moved as a blur. Quite a bit has happened since my flight touched down in DC a day later than anticipated, due to a cancelled flight from supposed storms in DC that never happened...anyway.

Since I've been back in town, I've been rather busy. In the past 5.5 days, I have:

Trained a replacement for my job (I got a new one, did I tell you?)
Had my last day of work in my old office - bittersweet!
Got a silly cold (still working that one out)
went to dinner with friends
Went to a friend's house for dinner with a small group of pals
Set the bar for everyone else at Just Dance 3 (Apache by Sugarhill Gang is my song - I own that dance!)
Went to a club to shake my groove thing a little more (turns out I dance a lot with my legs. I think because I have long ones, so I like to use them). It's kind of a random club. There were about 7 of us dancing. It was awesome.
Enjoyed a rainy day lounging in my bed, catching up on tv shows online. Love my USA Network shows!
Went to my first Polo match. Hoping it's not my last..
Ate a random hole in the wall mexican restaurant on the way to the Polo match - delicious
Danced after the Polo match - it was part of the program: Twilight Polo. 2 matches, followed by dancing - with a DJ! That was an important note on the program. It was a pretty sweet dance party (despite my earlier assertion that I'm a leggy dancer, I'm still a very good dancer. Just wanted to make that clear. I'm definitely worth going to a club or dance party with...)
Went to a wonderful piano concert at the LDS DC Temple Visitors Center

And tomorrow, I start my new job (no rest for the weary). So now, at 9:30pm, I'm going to bed. After a week and a half of rather relaxed vacationing, all this to-do has completely worn me out. I forgot how exhausting living life can be sometimes.
