So this weekend we attended a birthday/father's day lunch with Galen's Father and his wife and also G's aunt and uncle. It was a very nice time. I've decided I like getting together with family for quick meals like breakfast or lunch rather than trying to plan for dinners. It just seems like you have to spend less actual time with the people. Now, they are very good people and it was a nice time...but I just really don't like to socialize for three, four hours straight sitting in the same chairs all evening.
We didn't really do much else over the weekend other than typical prepare for the week type stuff like laundry, grocery shopping and light cleaning. I really needed to get my flower beds weeded but I didn't. I was feeling overall unmotivated.
I did play the Sims 3. I'm completely sim'dicted right now. I just love micromanaging my little sim lives and seeing what fun little surprises are in this new game. I was a faithful fan of Sims 2 and had nearly all the expansions and stuff packs. I wasn't impressed with Sims 3 originally, but it's grown on me and the open neighborhood and ever changing population is very interesting.
Finally, I found out that the third position (the possibly very tedious FMLA HR position) will be a lateral paygrade move. The person who would be my supervisor did tell me though she will attempt to negotiate an increase if I should be offered the position. I think she really wants me - I hope however that this doesn't bode ill for the other job(s).
