Before this becomes like every other Tuesday

Tuesday, November 14th, 2006

Last night I got home around 8:00. We ate dinner and went to bed at 9:30. We talked for about an hour in bed. This morning I am beat. My sleep has been full of dreams that are eerie and forgotten by the time I wake up. What I have left is the residual creepy feeling.

Coffee sometimes gives me the worst breath ever. I started bringing a toothbrush to work with me.

This morning Winemonkey called me to tell me that his boss called him. His boss called him because the person Winemonkey escorted around the winery yesterday has his secretary call Winemonkey’s boss to tell Winemonkey’s boss what a great job Winemonkey did on the tour. How could I possibly make him move from this? He really is living his dream.

I walked into work with a physicist today. He told me about cosmology. And you know what? He knows so much about his field that me makes me feel like an idiot. But I guess when you do something that you love, it is easy to seem like an expert in your field.

Lately I have been trying to keep my mouth shut. I have noticed that people tell me something and aren’t really interested in my response. And thusly, I have decided to keep more to myself.

And even though it may not sound like it, so far, this morning has faired pretty well. I am going to get back to my preparation. But I hope this feeling lasts.

Six hours of CSI.

Monday, November 13th, 2006

Sometimes I think I post about dumb stuff. And I can’t believe people read. This is one of those posts.

This weekend was really relaxing. We had two gourmet dinners (one in Glenn Ellen, one at a friend’s house). We slept overnight in the beautiful house in Kenwood (no pictures because I have no camera). We kareoked with a two year old (I have video trapped on my cell phone). Oh and I had a massage at the house on Saturday. And Winemonkey’s brother started moving out.

But mostly. We “cleaned off” the TiVo. This translates to 6 episodes of Good Eats and 6 episodes of CSI : Las Vegas. Because I love Grissom.

However, six hours of CSI can take a toll on your and I ended up dreaming that one of my co-workers here killed someone and I was the only one not trying to cover it up. It was an interesting dream.

It’s Official

I had a ridiculously fun amount of time in Vegas for work. I really enjoy spending time with my co-workers. There was alot of craziness and alot of “what goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas” sort of behavior. But all in all it was highly entertaining.

On another note, upon my return home I spent some time with the new guy. I am really liking him. We spent Saturday and Sunday night hanging out together. Saturday we stayed up until one in the morning talking. And then last night he came over and we made dinner together. He is sweet. I really enjoy his company.

Tomorrow Off.

All I have to say is that I am so glad that I don’t have to come back here tomorrow. Having three days to clear the air and be away will make me feel a million times better.

Of course, I will be working all weekend, but at least in this office.

I am looking forward to applying for other jobs.

I really want to move to Oregon. And it will be sad to leave Winemonkey here for a while, but I am getting antsy I guess. I don’t know.

U-G-L-Y

Things here are getting ugly. It is job-related and I feel like crap. I don’t want to reveal details here for fear something will come from it. But rumors are flying and I have to keep my windows open to other opportunities.

I have never been so fluctuatingly dissapointed in my life. If you would really like to know the nitty gritty details, just leave me a comment requesting them. I will pass them along in a somewhat timely fashion. But you can’t be a gossip queen (or king as the case may be).

A refund.

Ummmm…. yeah… I just got a refund from my hosting service. Does this mean my website isn’t going to be hosted by them anymore? I emailed the person who sent me the refund, but yeah. Maybe I am moving. I don’t know.
