I managed to only get lost at work three times (this new building is HUGE, ya’ll) I met some cool new peeps My new cubicle came with a stuffed gorilla. My first day was filled with orientation and meeting tons of new people. I am tired.  But it was a very good day. What were you all up to?

I feel like critics panned it a little bit and I know some people feel that it made light of the Civil Rights movement, etc. I loved the book, cried while I read it, and then recommended it to others.  Let me say, I loved the movie. I cried (but I always cry). It was funny. I feel the actors did a...
