Finally, URS-NYC comes through.

I got the transfer approved. First day at my new office will be Tuesday October 10th.

What a relief! I'd like to celebrate this with a drink, but I can't drink right now so you all will have to drink for me.

Yays! I'd be happy to drink for you. :)

Your choice:

OR

1) I have tickets to see the Indigo Girls at RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL on Friday Oct. 13th with la chica, [personal profile] chaosvizier, & [profile] katieledge. I am unbelievably excited about this - what a first weekend date, huh?

2) I re-wrote the words to that song once. (http://angledge.livejournal.com/86741.html)

That is so exciting. SO Exciting. I've seen them twice - but the second time I realized that I really just wanted them to play the "Closer to Fine" CD over and over - and anything that's come out in the past ten years or so I have no clue about.

and you are a dork. If only I could be that cool.

So question for you: I want to get Charlie/Des a gift to thank him for being such a wonderful supervisor & friend for the past two years. Should I go with the obvious, & get him a bottle of Macallan 12-year-old Scotch? Or can I think of something better?

Re: Two things:

[identity profile] sskipstress.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
And a bag of Mrs. Paul's greatest to remind him of you :)

HA HA HA

I should totally do that.

Re: Two things:

[identity profile] love2loveher.livejournal.com 2006-09-28 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I think an occasion like this calls for something personal and intense. Like... Macaroni art!
Something he can hang on the wall and remember you for always.

gift for charlie

pee ess - I totally bought him a Tobaccovile T-shirt 2 turnarounds ago, and I keep forgetting to send it.
Actually... its sitting in my bedroom in Tobaccoville.

macallan macallan macallan.

Decisions, decisions.

[identity profile] angledge.livejournal.com 2006-09-29 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
But Des ALWAYS buys himself Macallan. Shouldn't I buy him something he wouldn't necessarily pick out for himself? We both like Oban 14 & have shared many a dram of it. Or, I could get him a Dalwhinnie 15, one of my personal favorites....

....or I could get him a bottle of that awesome gin that [personal profile] chaosvizier was going on about recently. Just for a change-up. I know he likes gin.

Re: Decisions, decisions.

[identity profile] hermiston.livejournal.com 2006-09-29 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Hendricks Gin is very, very good. Blair Atholl if you like Dalwhinnie, Macallan etc.

CONGRATULATIONS! *throws back a celebratory shot*

I know I haven't commented much, but I have been reading, and I think you'll be happy in New York. I know I would be!

I'll think of you on the tenth! :)

[identity profile] angledge.livejournal.com 2006-10-02 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm.... I don't think you're old enough to have a legal drink yet. So... have a refreshing soft drink instead!

Congratulations!!!!!!!!! a glass of wine, please.
