For an entertaining story, call Lisa @ 317...

I'd be lying if I didn't say I was tempted to put Lisa's number online. That might make up for simTara, which can now be located when Googling my name. Thank you, Lisa. You dirty, dirty whore.

I'm currently in Indianapolis visiting Lisa and (occasionally) Shannon. These hookers haven't changed and it's great. :) I thought it was going to be fun getting away from the office for two days, but it got better... I got a tentative offer for a job in Germany!! I just need to prove to them that I didn't lie about my rank so they can calculate how much I would get for housing. I love it. Now I have to decide if it's worth giving up an automatic promotion in the job from hell for a job in a country were I know no one. Good thing I have the day off on Monday to think about it. :)

On a side note, the HP blog promised last month is progressing nicely. Lisa and I are not at all sarcastic in our analysis of the fine film, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. We silently passed up on any opportunity to comment on anything when we went to see it this afternoon.

P.S. Today is Opposite Day.

Check out that Honolulu blue...

Wearing the blue was a complete coincidence, I assure you. Thank you to Lord Thomas for letting me temporarily steal this shirt for a classy "screw Detroit" moment.

NFL!

It's times like these that I'm sad Christine moved from Detroit. What does a girl have to do to get a quality Fire Millen shirt around here? Isn't that why the internet is supposed to be so great?? I'm two minutes from designing my own.

For the record: I love Joey Harrington (shut up Brian). He prefers champagne over beer, plays the piano, and he's hot. That's a no brainer. If they get rid of him, can the Lions get Drew Brees? I need to stop this before drool ruins my laptop. I will cease tolerating the Lions if they do not have a hot quarterback. That's just how my dedication to the NFL works.

Go Skins? I feel dirty.

Best line ever (from Dr. Z's Sports Illustrated NFL Power Rankings): "When I die and go to hell, hell will be a Brett Favre game, announced by the ESPN Sunday night crew, for all eternity."

Good news and bad news...

Bad news: I got screwed by the man today! We had our division Christmas luncheon. We were supposed to be able to leave after lunch as all the other resource management divisions did. Yeah right. We get up to leave when the boss says we all have to go back. Wha?! Had I known that, I wouldn't have gone. I thought the $10 cost for the lunch was the equivalent of a bribe to get off work. Geez that was a waste.

Good news: I got offered an official job where I currently work (now that I'm no longer an intern). Stop with the intern jokes already! I'm legit! This means I get another promotion next year unless I mess up. It's sad what a person will put up with for some extra cash.

Good news/bad news: I had a job interview this morning for a job in Germany (good news). I would give up my promotion next year (bad news), but the Army would pay for my housing and I'd still be making around the same amount of money. Plus my lease happens to be up in a two months... We'll see what happens. :)

Happiness is...

Getting a two hour delay to work for SLUSH... then realizing you too have become one of those people that freaks out when driving in the snow. I hate what Virginia has done to me!!

Yes, this post is four days late as it snowed Thursday night/Friday morning and was already melted by Friday afternoon--but it was still enough to get me out of work!!
