Gab-and-biscuit-fest 2007

After pressure from my mother ("So... how come ya haven't updated the Blog????"), here I am. Another week passed, another Saturday almost finished. And what do I have to show for it?

Well, for starters, KELLY'S COMING TO VISIT TOMORROW! She's coming with her boyfriend Gavin, who I am very excited to finally meet. I wonder how long he'll survive the gab-and-cookies-fest (in Kelly's world I do believe it's the gab-and-biscuit-fest, of course....) that Kelly and I generally partake in -- see Exhibit A above of us at my wedding. Used to be nights of tarot cards and wine. Now we're old and I have to go to work early Monday morning, so it'll be cookies and decaf tea. But, hey, the gab's still just as good!

Right now, Andrea's sitting here next to me, we're both on our computers (we're sooooooo SATC) and exhausted for a change, after a long week. Exhausted, (and I smile as I write this....) but Content.

p.s. A Happy Birthday to the lovely and enchanting Baroness Meredith =)

From where I'm sitting NOW...

Not much news to pass on, just wanted to reassure all the worried masses that care that, YES, this week has been *much* better, thanks for askin'.

Have a great weekend everyone!

The Week from Hell

See those? Those are the flames that I spent this last week burning in. NOT fun. Warm and uncomfortable.

This week has taught me nothing, but reminded me of an unfortunate truth: People Suck. Plain and simple, they just do. When I was 12, my brother wrote a song for me: "Jodi Hates Everybody" and, I have to admit it, not much has changed since I was 12.

My little vent here thankfully is in reference to my work life and not my personal life -- two things which I am desperately trying to keep separate (suggestions welcomed). Let's just say the last time I witnessed such back-stabbing, two-faced, manipulative choosing camps was, well.... There's a reason the song went "Jodi Hates Everybody."

I am going to ask that whoever reads this posts me a comment about something positive to think about. Like, "Ice cream and pug puppies." I need my spirits lifted.

Hope you all managed to keep cooler under the collar than I did this week.
