Joshua was sick Friday night/Saturday and then was up just about every three hours last night. Was really, really tired to stayed home today and slept. It was awesome- Todd took Joshua to daycare this morning and I got to sleep in to almost 9:30. It was great ( Read more... )

Totally unimpressed by Bush's speech last night. What it comes down to is he took responsibility, but he didn't own his shit. Nowhere did I hear an apology. Accepting accountability and expressing regret are two different things ( Read more... )

An old manager gave me advice a few years ago and while I didn't necessarily see that what I was doing was such a big deal, I took her advice and modulated something about my personality while at work. Never really agreed w/ her per sea. I used to think, this is stupid, why do I have to follow this inane rule or not tell someone off for being a ( Read more... )

I have a phone interview w/ a place in Raleigh tomorrow. Not sure if I'm rooting for it being a cool job or not at this point.

We just got his anniversary present. Guess what Todd wanted for our anniversary? A mixer- that's right a mixer. We are now the proud owners of a 6 qt stainless steel professional grade kitchen aid stand mixer. Only my husband would have a mixergasm over a mixer that I'll end up using more than him ( Read more... )

We're headed back down to Raleigh this weekend. This time we'll have Joshua and are staying until Sunday so hopefully we'll be able to see folks. I think we're seeing between 8-10 houses over Friday and Saturday- we have to pace ourselves more with Joshua ( Read more... )
