Things are finally back to normal at work. I should probably be concerned that things have gotten a little slow but instead I am going to enjoy it and next week take a 5 day weekend. I honestly don't remember the last time I took any time off. It's going to be nice. smile

My bookkeeper suddenly quit without notice last week. So now, in addition to all of my other work, I am doing all of her work until I can hire someone new. I've started dreaming about numbers. ARRR!!!

Strange. She didn't say if she found a better job? Quitting without something else lined up is quite bold. Then again, it's not completely unheard of. Maybe she just wants a total switch and couldn't stand another day of bookkeeping. Now you get to!

It's still big and purple but I am still able to get around with some semblance of style. I borrowed a walking stick.

I don't normally like to toot my own horn, but I totally rocked today. I can't really say much as there are confidentiality issues but lets just say that my client is very, very happy. Even better, since this is a big picture issue for both the client and myself, my opponents were, at best, relieved to be able to limp away, lick their wounds...

Seriously. Although I think tuition at the U would be significantly cheaper if they didn't dump so much money into sports-related expenses. Oh well.

I'm good. Work has been up and down but mostly good. Although I am really tired of working overnight. Been at it now for 1.5yrs. I want to go back to normal hours and no idea when that will happen at this point. How bout you?

I don't think I'll ever be a cigar smoker but I sure like the smell of a good cigar. I don't know what kind he smokes but one of my neighbors always spends his Sundays drinking bourbon and smoking cigars in his backyard. I love when the smell wafts in to my window. Quite a handsome man for his age too. If he were thirty...

I would drink with you. smile

Sadly they really have no good way to give feedback to the management. They are very defensive and take anything people say very personally. I'm thinking that it is just time to move on.

I wish I liked the smell of cigars. My dad smokes them and I hate them. puke

I had to fire someone today. Even though it had been coming for a while and was completely justified, I still feel like shit about it. I just don't understand why some people throw away the opportunities they are given in life. I hate seeing talent go to waste. I thought that I would get better at this over time but I've come to realize...

I know this will pass. I'm just wining. My girlfriend and I recently broke up (this past week) and school is in its last three weeks. Sometimes I wish I had the luxury of being an Ostrich.

I carry a very high GPA currently. I actually want to attend Law School when I finish at Augsburg. I want to accomplish that more than any other goal I have ever set for myself. I have no ambition to be rich or powerful. I just want to learn the language governs our country and protects us and others from exploitation.
otoki:
Yeah. I mean, I'm only going to be there for another month or two until my SIL comes back from leave, but I feel like it needs to be addressed no matter what, at least between my FIL and I.

I just had a little kid jump out from behind some bushes and scare the hell out of me. Resulting in me going down hard on the ice. Which elicited delighted giggles from the little monster. mad

Do you ever miss someone so much that it seems to cause you physical pain? I'm starting to hate the person I am turning in to. I really need to make some changes.

Just call me Boris.

Feeling better?
toothpickmoe:
Interesting interesting. The jury is out on good.

I am sorry to hear that and hope things turn around for you. I tend to miss experiences and places more than individual humans, oddly enough.

Hey, its good to see you back. smile

I don't think love all you need, but it sure helps.
velvet_petal:
That is a great "before I die" wish and one that I hope happens well before that time. Here's to love in equal and ever growing measures.

You would think that after all this time I would have something interesting to say. I fear I am in danger of becoming one of those people who only updates once a year. But since that's about how often something changes around me that would be appropriate. Not that it's a bad thing. In general I find that it is easier to come up with...

Here is a different version of that tune she recorded.

Hi, it's been a while; nice to see you have returned! Are you a fan of RPG's also? I'm not much of a blogger myself, but not to worry... smile

I like that song. I saw her open up for Depeche Mode at the Xcel quite a few years ago. She was really good.smile
