Kevin's Watch

Today is Take Yer Kid to Work Day. Our law firm does a program for the kids every year, so they don't spend the day tearing around the firm, disrupting the folks who are actually working. I volunteered to supervise the kids for an hour, and got assigned to sit in on their "computer training" class. One girl just couldn't sit still and couldn't shut up -- and then she proclaimed, "I had a Coke for lunch!" Really? I never would have guessed!

The kids are currently wrapping up their day at an ice cream social, to which we volunteers were also invited. I thought about going...and then I thought about a roomful of tired kids, hopped up on sugar...and then I bought a bag of pretzels from the junk machine instead.

I've had a productive day of work and playing aunty to a 10 month old (which is hard work!).

Now I am getting really frustrated with an application form I am trying to fill in. So tedious!

Who said the goose was drunk? It wasn't. I wasn't. Maybe it was giddy coz it'd been twirling in circles!

Excited

After two previously cancelled shows, Hyperception and I are finally off to see Sir Elton John.

Something incredible has happened to me . . .

I don't believe it.

I don't know what it is, but you seem happy, and that's makes me happy for you.

After much ado, I finally have a job interview! My old company has an opening, and my old director called me about it. We talked about the hypotheticals, even salary (and she told me she'd "love to have you back"). However, I have to have a formal interview. It's at 2:00pm, and hopefully it won't be too painful. I hate job interviews, but at least I know that I can ace this one.

So after that remains the process of moving my things and finding a new place.

I'm going to be one busy girl, so I may not be around much over the next few days.

I feel so very tired and unmotivated. It's a good thing today is Friday...I need some rest.

I feel great. My last official day at college. All I need is German this summer and I'm off to grad school (well, off looking for one).

Well...

At least they have the right colors, if a bit mistaken on the shades...

...as long as it's an SEC school, LF...

It's FRIDAY! WHOO HOO! Me likey Fridays. Now I just gotta get through work and then my friend Seth is coming over to help me solve some computer issues and then I got nothing major planned except to keep my standing laundry date with Lucimay on Sunday morning.

To the sickies - get better!
To the happies - whoo hoo!
To the unhappies - sorry guys, here's a hug.
To CovJr - Do you need a big warm fuzzy snuggy huggy? (I bet that made you want to maim me even more.... )

Menolly, you will love Elton John. I saw him years ago and he was great.

I feel pretty great today too. Just found out that the baby is very low risk for chromosomal abnormalities and birth defects, despite my 'advanced maternal age.'
