I had my yearly review today. The interviewer was impressed with my performance over the last year and is pushing for a grade promotion for me. I'm not really banking on this because I was supposed to get that promotion two years ago.

Last night was my friend's wedding. Everything went off perfectly. I ran into some people that I've not seen in a decade, kind of a small world thing. The woman who did the bride's hair is the ex of someone who I used to run with and is now married to one of the grooms coworker. Nice surprise.

I helped out one of the project managers at work, he decided to get me a gift card as a thank you. He got me a gift card to a bar near the office. When he gave it to me the guy who sits next to me started laughing hysterically. The PM asked what was so funny and my cubemate said "you gave a recovering...

I got called into my project managers office today. My first thought was what did I fuck up this time, It wasn't that. I filled in for a coworker who was on vacation and the client liked my performance much more than the guy who I filled in for. We are doing another project for this client and he wants me on site when that...
