I'm having a rough night. Last night my parents told me that my childhood dog, Midge, wasn't doing well. She couldn't stand up without toppling over, and she couldn't walk straight. The vet said it she may have had a stroke or has a tumor. Or, it could have been something as simple as an ear infection. Her blood work was fine, and they ( Read more... )

It's that time of year again kids! Time for Lesley to get a date for the office holiday party. YAY! I was actually fine by going by myself until a superior at work mentioned setting me up with her son. So not going down that path. I should be fine by going alone. It will be great.

Today was actually pretty calm, despite the history that took place yesterday. No one really talked about it. Actually, more people commented on wondering the results for NC specifically, as opposed to what the entire country decided. My mom, who is a teacher, even said that no one talked to her about it.

Going back to work after a nice vacation isn't that easy. Trust me, I didn't get much done today. It didn't help that all of the other product managers were in an AMA class downstairs.

So at midnight my phone is vibrating on my bedside table. Someone is texting me. It's my friend, Christine. The message, "At bar in Writesville Beach standing next to Sofia Bush - I will be her bff by the end of the night. She just kissed the bball player on the show that has the kid." I didn't know that Sofia Bush and James Lafferty were ( Read more... )

I'm home. YAY! It feels good despite the fact that I am already doing laundry and ironing. If I do it now, more time for fun this weekend, right ( Read more... )

So I've been totally on edge lately. With the gas situation (I hope there will be some when I get back on Thursday) and ahem, THE ECONOMY, I really have been scared for our country. And I have lots of friends that work in the financial sector that will probably be out of their jobs ( Read more... )
