One Up, One Down
I turned in my last final today. I'm done with school. Forever.
I also just returned from a dinner in St. Paul with Rudy Giuliani. I got to shake his hand. There's something about people who have or had positions of power. They are intense. I think the guy's eyes shot a laser beam right through my head. Crazy.
I also received my first rejection letter (or e-mail):
Megan,
Thank you very much for you letter. We do not have any openings at this point. We may have an opening late this calendar year. I will keep your resume on file and please keep in touch.
Clarke Scanlon
District Director
Congressman Tom Latham
So I probably won't be living in Ames. At least not until late this calendar year.
We'll see if Minnesota wants me for a while longer.

(Famous people are overrated.)
CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING DONE! Can you at least come to Ames so we can throw you a party?

AMES, AMES, AMES.... Megan, I'm from MN and I say IA wants you more!!!! It'd be so cool to have you living here again:)

I also want you to come to Ames!
I can't believe that you would think living in Minnesota could be any better than living in Iowa! I mean, humph. *grumpy face*
Truly, we all would love for you to come! I'd be your diet coke/diet mountain dew buddy, and we can spend a lot of time in the sun...just think of all the fun it will be!

Well, I think it's unanimous. Ames it is. I'll have people to start making space for your room.
