- I had lunch with my sis today! Woo! I've seen her more in the past 6 weeks than I have the entire year. That's pretty sad, considering she's my best friend. BJ and I just don't have enough of us to go around.
- We're having our (non family) favorite couple over this weekend to watch a college rivalry game- Huskys vs Sooners. Be prepared for pictures of me all decked out with OU gear. I even got face tattoos and dog tags. Oh yeah, it's going to be a klassy (with a k!) event.
- It occurred to me out of the blue today that it's been quite a while since I've felt stupid. I honestly believe with all my heart that the stupid era is behind me. I couldn't be more thrilled. I can deal with the physical stuff from the head bonking incident, as long as I have my precious brain. I'm now walking around work like I own the place. Maybe that's not such a good thing.
- It's in the news that there will be another round of layoffs toward the end of this month at my company (please let it be the last- I'm tired of losing all my pals). I'm going to take it as a good sign that Top Dog approved a $1500.00 software package for me. OK, I knew I was safe- but still it's nice to have a bit of reassurance.
- I worked in the garden last weekend and it was fab. It's been a while since I've been able to play in the dirt due to either weather, hospitals or visitors. I was going like a mad woman and got quite a bit accomplished. I stopped once I filled the 32 gallon bin. I also stopped short of the point where I couldn't raise my arms without crying. I get a little crazy when I'm working in the garden and sometimes pay for it. I took an extra klonopin that evening and the jerks weren't too bad. I think that's going to be my tactic when doing heavy physical labor.
- Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job? No? Well I do. Looks like I'm getting a new co-worker. The cool thing is that I met him on the train a couple of months ago. He heard me talking about Information Security and came over and introduced himself. I *REALLY* liked the guy and told him that he should apply for a job in my department. He sent me his resume; I pimped him out; and now he's my co-worker (or will be in a couple of weeks). I think I make a really great match-maker. His background is super interesting, as are most in my department. We have ex-secret service guys, ex-military (intel), and me- beauty school dropout. heh.
- FCW (favorite co-worker) told me that he's never met anyone with such a crazy life story as me. He doesn't even know the half of it. He knows I once made a living singing on the weekends, was in the Little Miss America pageant, was a beauty school dropout, taught courses in a community college (even though I never went to college myself.) I think I'll let him ruminate on all of that before he gets to hear the rest of the story that is my life.
He's right though. When I think about all of the experiences I've lived, it is a little much. If I didn't live it myself, I'm not sure *I'd* believe it. Beyond all of that, I have so many stories to tell about stuff I did that could have gotten me in BIG trouble like the time when I was 17, me and my roommate donned my white beauty school uniforms and trolled the local hospital. We thought we might be able to pick up on some doctors. .... I'm NOT kidding. There are MANY more hair raising (for my parents) stories where that came from. Maybe I should start adding them to my blog. Y'all will then truly know how brainless adventurous I am.
