Happy Boxing Day!
So, Merry belated Christmas to all, and Happy Boxing Day to those in Canada and the UK! Sadly, my 5 day stretch of not working is coming to an end, as I have to go back to the office tomorrow. But, at least it's only 2 days. Hubby is off until January 2nd. Lucky. Anyway, I've done absolutely nothing productive during this time off. Basically ( Read more... ) -
Wow, this year is flying by...
Can't believe that it's nearly Christmas. Its hard to be in the Christmas spirit when it's been nearly 80 degrees for the last few days. We have weird weather in SC. My mom keeps saying she wants a white Christmas, and I keep telling her that she needs to move to another state if she wants that. I've managed to get absolutely nothing done. At least ( Read more... ) -
Of birthdays and babies...
Well, here it is, the big 3-0. It's been pretty cool, because my birthday celebration started on Wednesday at work and has continued through til today (my mom and mom-in-law had a party for me last night, and hubby & I are getting together with friends later today- plus, Thanksgiving was smack in the middle so I got to eat lots of good food!). I ( Read more... ) -
Remember, remember, the fifth of November...
So, today is Guy Fawkes Day, and apparently I'm one of only a handful of Americans who knows that...BUT it's also Ron Paul day- the man who, I hope, will be the next President of the US, is trying for the largest online fundraising for a single day in any campaign history EVER. According to www.ronpaul2008.com he has made it! Over 3 million ( Read more... ) -
whew...what a week
Well, here I sit on Halloween, playing Peggle (the MSN game that is strangely addicting) and waiting on tonight's episode of "Pushing Daisies" (my favorite new fall show), while waiting on my poor little gums to heal. Oral surgery is for the birds. I had to get a gum graft at the dentist's yesterday,
which involves them cutting a piece of my gum ( Read more... ) -
off to New Orleans
Well, vacation time is here...leaving to go to New Orleans tomorrow with hubby, to see Rage Against the Machine and the Smashing Pumpkins at the Voodoo Music Fest. I'm actually not as excited about it as I was at first. It'll be fun and all, but then, as soon as I get back, I have to have oral surgery done at the dentist's (woohoo) so they can do ( Read more... ) -
finally getting to change jobs...
So, my current boss has finally agreed to let someone else have my current job, and I should be moving to my new position in litigation within a week. What warrants the facepalm icon is that he's picking the person we all told him to pick over a month ago...she would've been trained by now!! I've already been splitting the work this past week ( Read more... ) -
Fall TV season & Sci-fi Friday ramblings...and I'm being dragged to a triathlon
YAY! The fall season has now started, and with my addiction to love of television I have been quite busy this past week, especially with the abundance of sci-fi. On Monday, there was the long-awaited season 2 premiere of Heroes, followed by Quantum Leap Journeyman, which was actually quite good. I swear I'll quit watching it if he says "oh boy" ( Read more... ) -
SQUEEEEE! I'm going to see The Police!!
OK, so it's not David Tennant, but I have had a crush on Sting since I was 10 years old. The Police are playing in Charlotte in November, and I got tickets last night. Spent way too much money, but what the heck, you only live once, right? It's my birthday present to myself- the show is 9 days before my 30th birthday. I can't wait!!!!
