20 Days Later mood: feelin' fine listening to: a blissfully quiet office free of pesky co-workers I cannot believe I haven't posted in twenty days. I fear you all have forgotten about me out in here in BlogLand. :P First, thanks to all of my loved ones for a wonderful birthday. I feel very loved and very fortunate to have such good friends. Second, meet the newest member of our family, a new, COLOR, digital TV for my kitchen! Thanks to D for hooking a sister up!  Next, please read my review on Foodbuzz about James' new restaurant, Silver & Stone. We went Monday night for my birthday, which also happened to be their first night open for business. Work: After a bit of personnel drama with NG3 (that's New Girl #3 for those who haven't had to listen to my complaints), things are better and are very busy. We are supposed to move to another building here on campus in the next few weeks, but no news as to when that might happen. The good news is I will have real, actual sunlight! There are windows across from where my new cubicle will be. We currently reside in an office stuck in the middle of one of the buildings - i.e. no sunlight. Other news: D and I are hosting our first Thanksgiving this year. We've done all of the other major holidays, but not Turkey Day. The menu's already set and guests invited. Thanks so much to Juls for the awesome CD from Fine Cooking on everything D could possibly need to know about cooking the bird. :) I hope you guys are all doing well, too. I am going to try very hard to catch up on everyone else's blogs this week and be "in the know". Labels: birthdays, television, thanksgiving, updates, work 7.22.2008
Quick Update I realized last night that it's been a while since a real update, so here goes: Dustin and I are headed to San Diego next Wednesday-Saturday. He's going for a business trip, and I am tagging along. I still need to sit down and figure out what I want to do while he's in meetings. I've been to San Diego once before, so I have a vague idea of what I want to do. I'm mainly looking forward to the 72º weather. :) Thanks to Mr. Foley for yet another good time at your house on Sunday. It was fun meeting some of your other friends and the food was great. We need to get together again soon for the Star Wars marathon! Work's about the same. I've given up on the job hunt for now...there's just too much other stuff to deal with right now. I was really confident about a job here at the agency, but I didn't pass HR screening for it. I don't want to go into it, but the lady who was helping me apply for it kind of threw me under the bus and didn't tell me all of the qualifications I needed on my application. She also didn't try very hard to push my app. through, either. I'm hoping that something even better than that is out there for me, but I just can't handle the stress of looking right now. D's getting ready for another fun-filled school year as a fundraising rep., but this year will be a transition since his company merged with another one earlier this summer. He's had to work more than normal this summer, so I'm hoping he's had enough down-time to be ready to go again. He's been out hunting a few times and spent some time at our neighborhood pool. Starting this week the conventions and meetings start, though, so his summer's pretty much over. We talked about trying to go to Vegas next month, but I'm not sure that we'll be able to. I guess that's about it. The furr babies are both doing well - they had their annual vet visit and everything went smoothly. Minnie's getting a bit older and bit grumpier with each year, and Padmé just clings to me more. They're both still super sweet kitteh babies, though, and they keep us entertained. Hope you guys are all doing well... 7.14.2008
This is ridiculous... It's 66° in our office right now. It's the middle of July and I am wearing a sweater and have a blanket wrapped around me. I forecast snow flurries by lunch. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Labels: general grumbling, work 6.13.2008
Since... Four Foods Friday will take a bit more focus, I will post to say the following: You know it's been a long work week when you drink straight out of the remainder of the wine bottle while your dinner cooks. :P Labels: general silliness, updates, work 3.22.2007
Tell me if I'm wrong... but if you are in a parking lot with narrow spaces, and you see someone pull in and it's obvious that they are going to have to back out and straighten up, do you really need to honk at them as if they are unexpectedly backing out as you are trying to pull through? I mean, seriously, folks. I drive a big truck. If my brake lights are still on, odds are that I'm coming back out of the place to straighten up. Get your head out of your butt and be polite!
