New Territory

So, there've been some changes going on at work. I try not to talk too much about work stuff here. Anyway - - as a result of these changes, I will have 5 people in 5 different states reporting to me, which will mean traveling more. Also, it means that I got acknowledged for Boss's day. I huge plant/floral arrangement arrived on Friday and I think that it when I finally hit me that I am one particular person's B-o-s-s. I think this is going to work out well. :)

Genius

One of my better moments yesterday morning occurred when I added water to Bisquick rather than milk. Ooopsie. Thankfully, we had all the ingredients to actually make pancakes from scratch. And, you know what? I do think they actually tasted just a little bit better.

Vacation

I just listened to an outgoing voice mail message in which the person reminded callers that he would be out of the office on Friday, May 13th. Hello - that was almost 5 months ago. Should I have mentioned something about it in the message I left him?

Too Much TV (& other random thoughts)

I've spent some of the weekend catching up on Tivo. Two espisodes of Reunion and last week's Desperate Housewives. We've yet to watch the Alias premiere... maybe later tonight. Right now we're watching Family Guy and they're singing karaoke Journey songs. And I'm singing along. oh. dear. We now have 13 season passes - thank goodness we opted for the the one with the dual tuner.

My favorite quote from the Reunion episode (1988) that I watched today:
"Something tells me that you never really escape highshcool. It just haunts you for the rest of your life."

Just got off the phone with a friend that I've known forever. We weren't the best of friends for all 28 years we've known each other, but were close at times in highschool. Last week, a girl we graduated with found her on myspace. It was so strange. This other girl and my friend never got along, but now live within 25 miles of eachother in SoCal. Haunting indeed.

Also today, we went to see a Transporter 2 with one of the HUSband's best friends from highschool. His b-day is tomorrow - turning 34. The HUSband will be 34 at the end of November. It's funny that the tables have turned now and the HUSband will tease his friend about being older. I'm sure he wasn't complaining when he turned 16 or 21 earlier. Man, we're getting old.
