I cleaned off my desk tonight. The Daily Herald had become a very comfortable place to work. The office was my family in Utah and saved me many times from retreating to the life of a complete hermit. Part of tradition for all departing employees is a card that is passed around the office for an obligatory signing. Keep in mind that a very devout LDS Church member selected this card.
I have a retrospective of the last two years planned, but I'm not sure I'll have time to complete it before I leave for California. For now I'm cleaning the apartment to get my security deposit back and have enough money for the security deposit at the new apartment in Laguna Hills.
There are some things I'm going to miss about Utah.
