Another weekend down, another week begins ( Read more... )

Umm, yeah.  So this week seems to be flying by.  And at this point I'm not sure if it's good or bad.  I want the next 6.5 weeks of work to be done more than anything, don't get me wrong.  But I was working late tonight and my group leader, who I usually refer to as my boss, started talking to me.  I had asked if I could get a day off for a long ( Read more... )

Time for an update, but Heater already beat me to the punch!  Damn you!  I have a few things to add about the holiday weekend, though, highlights if you will:

* Dave played my FAVORITE song for the 2nd time in 4 years.  Heather had to use the potty a few songs in, so I went with and as we were heading out of the restrooms I heard the familiar, yet ( Read more... )

So I feel like I've been going non-stop for the last month, with barely any time to catch my breath let alone be a good friend to anyone.  I don't know what my deal is.  There was one weekend in there that just wiped me out.  I think it was graduation weekend because I got hella drunk with some fabulous people and had such a blast, and then went to ( Read more... )

Wait, let me check....nope, still hate my job. But now, I hate it even more. There are currently 6 people in my group and we all cover each others' asses when it comes to our projects and someone wants to take a day off. I nicely requested July 5th off yesterday, hoping to use that day to extend a weekend where I might get to see my lover. Two ( Read more... )

So I had a fabulous extended weekend in Ohio. How, you ask, could I possibly have a good time in OHIO? 'Cause I got to see my Lover and her silly, silly friend Tiffany. Stop your silly-ness, you two. Stop it right now! Anywho, I won't bore you with all the little details but I had a blast and wish I didn't have to come back to reality. I've ( Read more... )

Sooo...haven't updated this thing in awhile, eh?  Eh, Pacha?  I guess I don't have much to update on.  I'm still breathing, still working, still ghetto fabulous.  I've re-upped my efforts to find a job in Chicago.  Tiff wants to move June 1st.  Not sure if that'll happen for me or not.  Right now it seems unlikely, but ya never know.  I'll give it ( Read more... )

So guess who's obituary was below Tiffany's in tonight's paper?  That of an old neighbor......he lived 5 doors down from my old house across town.  Early 40's, a little heavier...he had a heart attack at home and died later at the hospital.  Left behind his wife and two really young kids.  Really great family...we used to walk their Husky in the ( Read more... )

The world lost one of the sweetest people on Monday.....and I didn't even know about it until just now ( Read more... )

Things haven't been going so badly this past week and a half...For the most part, work has kept me preoccupied with new (read: different and not boring) projects and lots of people have stopped by to congratulate me and tell me they're glad I'm there.  Which is nice, always nice to feel like you matter.  But someone brought in about 10 boxes of ( Read more... )
