A bunch of "interior decorator fairies" (aka Mom, my sister and her mother in law) visited my house ( Read more... )

Wow...has it really been 24 weeks since I last checked my LJ? Guess time flies ( Read more... )

Last week, we had one of those "very speshul meetings" at work in which we talk about growth, opportunity and development. Last week's meeting was about "personal development," which loosely translates into "personal development as it relates to your career and what you can do for us," because for all my company's talk about work-life balance, ( Read more... )

OMG! I actually got to see a movie this weekend!!!! So thrilled--I hardly ever get to see movies (I'm lacking in movie buddies who share my taste). I went to see a matinee of The Watchmen with a former co-worker of mine ( Read more... )

It seems like it's been forever since I logged into, checked, read, or even updated my LJ account. I could say it is partially because I was bored about talking about myself, partially because I was tired of reading the same thing over and over again in other peoples' journals and partially because I was lured away by the shiny, shiny baubles of ( Read more... )
