(This is one of the reasons why I don’t write here as often anymore…almost my only topic of conversation is work. Good days at work, bad days at work, promotions, hating my job, loving my job, the devil known as year-end, etc. Boooooring). Anyway, today was a crappy day. Really, the last week has been…

Let’s All Go to the Movies
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a month since Gene and I attended AMC’s Best Picture Showcase. I think this is the fourth year that we’ve attended. Midway through the second Saturday of the showcase, I realized that nine movies is a ridiculous number of Best Picture nominees and that the Academy should really stop…
Okay, so lately
So, here’s what’s new 1) In Indiana 3/15-3/20. YAY. No special plans, just spending time with my family. (And yes, I’m also going to spend some time alone. I need some time alone.) 2) Mom and Dad visit 4/1-4/3. Waaaait. Is this an elaborate April Fools prank? Uh oh! No one’s coming to town are…
Blahhh!
This week has sucked. 1) Mehh! My coworker had a week plus a day off, forcing me to go rogue looking for help. 2) Grrrr. Client with a time clock problem and I’m useless to help (mostly due to issue #1 above). Have been avoiding his call for 2 days now, plus the prior 2…
More random thoughts…
1) Why do they even bother to make single stuf Oreo cookies? Who says “Gosh, I couldn’t eat all the frosting in the middle of a Double Stuf Oreo!” 2) I really worry that someday they’ll rename psoriasis “Kardashian disease.” Is it not bad enough that I have itchy flaky spots on my elbows, knees,…
Q: How many year-ends…
Does it take for me to finally start sprouting gray hair? A: 13. Thanks a lot, 2012! Yes, I’m vain (as vain as a woman who owns neither makeup nor curling iron) but I have always been proud that I didn’t have any gray hairs yet. Imagine my shock when I found one peeking out…
Progress!
1) Upgrade wardrobe – kind of done. I ordered a bunch of stuff from Lands End but I’m returning half of it. (new item on to-do list: Put together Lands End return) –done! 2) Upgrade cell phone new phone on the way – done! 3) Go to dentist – trying to get this scheduled. Dentist’s office is closed…
Phone-y
As an aside, there’s a Stevie Nicks song whose lyrics include the word “phony”, spelled “phoney”. Hyper-critical me, even as a 14 year old, totally saw that in the CD liner notes, brushed the black tulle out of my face (don’t ask), and thought, “Stevie, please! There is no E in phony!” (Actually, let’s go…
To-Do List Progress
For my own self interest, here is my progress on the to-do list… 1) Upgrade wardrobe – kind of done. I ordered a bunch of stuff from Lands End but I’m returning half of it. (new item on to-do list: Put together Lands End return) 2) Upgrade cell phone new phone on the way 3) Go…
Negative Girl…
So, yesterday we finally got the dogs to the vet’s office to get them caught up on the various and sundry medical things that needed to be done. (Speaking of which… I, LaineyD, solemnly swear to get my dogs to the vet’s office when they are actually due for things and not 1-3 months later)….
