She&#8217;s leaving the Meetings Department, going off to be some sort of event planner for a bookstore farther north in Maryland, closer to her boyfriend. Said happy hour is down at Rumor&#8217;s, which I guess is technically <em>in<\/em> our building, although they have some sort of extra structure built on to the side of the building as well.<\/p>\n<p>Right away we spot Dwight and Sameer, who are discussing the upgrade to 6.3. We join them, as others from ASH keep trickling downstairs. I share my time between the upgrade discussion and the celebration for Julie. The best beer I can find with the happy hour special price is Rolling Rock.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly we get booted out about an hour later, for a private party. As we&#8217;re heading out, I stop at the back bar, the one up a couple steps, to say hi to Anna, whom I had seen walking by earlier. Anna dances at Camelot, but I know her from way back when she used to dance at Archibalds. I&#8217;m sure that she doesn&#8217;t remember me, but I ask after her and her son, who must be heading off to college soon. Next year, she says, to study <a href=\"http:\/\/www.erau.edu\/\">engineering<\/a>. Good for him.<\/p>\n<p>I head with Kate, Elisa, and Stephanie, in the direction of Mai Tai. But we detour and end up at Porters, which used to be Acme, years ago, before the war. I spent many an evening at Acme, usually with Paul Abugattas. Elisa shows us some clothes that she&#8217;s bought today. A couple of folks walking by stop to talk to Stephanie. I try to be just one of the girls, or like a kindly grandmother or something.<\/p>\n<p>I get home late, much later than I wanted to or should have. Dawn&#8217;s a little peeved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I head out of work right at five with Kate, as we&#8217;re all having a happy hour for Julie who is leaving us.
