Oh, those fun, hip youngsters I'm working with now. :) A video was made to showcase our temporary space here in Portland, so I thought I'd share. You can see me toward the back of our on-the-floor circle around 1:17-1:19, and then around 2:37 there's a speeded-up moment of me jumping on the beanbag in a blur of a leopard-print tank top and khaki skirt. It's all good!

Link is here.

And even if I didn't work here, I do encourage you to look around the Airbnb website because it is a lot of fun. Make an account! (And no, you absolutely do not have to attach any Facebook accounts to create one, though the creation page does push it) Look at amazing — and odd — places to stay! If you have a spare bedroom, list a space!

Okay, enough exclamation points. My new schedule is 10-7 but I've been up since 5 o'clock as I was up with [livejournal.com profile] evannichols and am caffeinated387 or so. :P

After the Universe brought a maple iced doughnut into my world when I'd been thinking about them for weeks, yesterday the Universe deemed that I should become even more a Portlander by bringing several bright pink boxes of Voodoo Donuts into my world and the new Airbnb Portland offices yesterday. I admit that I'd stayed away from that particular Portland legend due to its notorious lines and that I'm not often all that into doughnuts. But yesterday I savored one that appeared to be a fairly conventional doughnut with vanilla icing and topped with a generous serving of Fruit Loops. When my trainer Rob came by, he looked at it and said, "That's quite a doughnut! It looks like a unicorn vomited on it."

Yes, I adore my trainers, the company, my new colleagues, and the folks from HQ from different areas who are all clamoring to be here with us. I really am besotted with my new job and thrilled to pieces.

The other totally not-healthy thing I've been meaning to post about is the utter joy of Tillamook Sticky Bun ice cream. For those outside of the northwest where Tillamook products are not sold: I am so sorry. Because the amazing goodness of cinnamon ice cream, streusel, sticky bun dough?? It almost defies written description. I'll settle for icecreamgasm.

Life is good. :D
