Tomorrow's Interview
So…tomorrow’s interview. It’s a Zoom interview, but now the headhunter tells me it’s just going to be by phone? I don’t really understand. I guess time will tell. I will be dressed and somewh...
Today Felt Slightly Better
This morning I got up early and did my workout, took the dog for a nice early walk, came back in and finished sending my tax info to my accountant and told him that I got laid off, filled out a c...
In Brief.
I’m trying my best to keep a stiff upper lip about being laid off. I mean, we’ve all seen the writing on the wall and I’ve talked about it soooooo many times here in PB, but honestly, in the mid...
Welp.
Just got laid off.
Dishing
…or, some things I’ve learned while in self-isolation: I like to do my dishes by hand rather than do a load in the dishwasher. If I do them by hand as soon as I have finished making my meal, t...
My Roommate Hates Me Right Now
Well, I’ve done it. I’ve made the dog so mad at me she won’t even look at me. I took her on her evening walk and she was NOT into it, so I had to “yank her chain” a bit to get her to move and uu...
My Hunch**
UPDATE: Sorry, all, I’m obviously having trouble communicating tonight! Clarifications noted in entry… Well, looks like my hunch about six feet apart not being far enough may have been right afte...
What I'm Thinking About All of This
Okay. I do want to write after all. I have a lot of thoughts on this whole Corona situation. Now keep in mind that this list is going to be fluid and I’m definitely not saying that I’m correct...
Why Am I Not Writing?
I don’t know! I need to, but I don’t have the words right now. I used to always, always turn to writing my feelings when times got tough or interesting or boring or whatnot. But right at this ...
Video Chat is Where it's At
I can’t believe it’s been 5 days since I’ve written. So much and so little has happened. First of all, by the end of the workday on Wednesday, our CEO let us know that those of us who work in ...
I Forgot to Tell You!*
Oh my gosh - the best part of last weekend and I forgot to tell you about it! So. Saturday morning. I was done with my nail appointment, right? And I had about an hour to blow before I needed t...
How's It Carona-ing?
How to even document this? I guess I’ll just start right here. At the end of last work week, my company announced that it would be going to a 50/50 work from home schedule. What that means is t...
More Mixed Feelings (and mini-deets)
Bluh. The thrill of mini-vacay is over and it’s back to the grind, following up on the trade show stuff and generally feeling behind on everything. And even though a very well-known publicatio...
Loved It/Hated It
Just back late last night from my trip to Florida. Started with a trade show in Orlando (surprised that they didn’t cancel as last night I talked with some folks at the airport who flew in for a...
In Da Club*
Greetings from Miami. I have so much to write about from this past week, but before I do, I just need to come on here real quick like to say I’m way, wayyyy too old for this. How I ended up in a...
Friday (yay) Ramblings
Oh my god it’s Friday and I couldn’t be happier! Though I have not a lot planned other than a haircut, brunch club, laundry and packing for Florida (biz trip with pleasure at the end!), I’m alwa...
RAD: Prayer Boy
Lunch meet & greet! Trust me, it’s a fluke that I had two dates in a row… Name: Prayer Boy Introduction Platform: Bumble Age: 56 Relationship Status: Divorced 10 years and sounds like he’...
RAD: The Still-Married Pilot
Quickie early morning coffee date just for grins… Name: D.P. (aka Delta Piloit) Introduction Platform: Hinge Age: 56 Relationship Status: Going thru divorce. 3 teenage boys!!! Job: Airline Pi...
Seeing Light...
Two things keeping me sane right now: the promise from the weatherman for sunshine later this afternoon, and making little plans for Miami. The rest is baloney. I can’t tell you the last time I...
Bleary, Foggy Weekend
Well, that weekend just clunked by. I still feel completely out of it from the flu bug that I had last week. I’m still fuzzy and blurry in my brain as well as physically. I’m finding it really...
A Shitty, Weak Moment*
Edit for cat clarification: Shitty Kitty is NOT the cat that knocked me down and tried to kill me…that was Karl’s cat, an entirely different entity (and a devil spawn). Shitty Kitty is my next ...
Fromunda the Weatha
Holy hell, I’ve been SICK AS A DOG the last few days! I have had the unofficial Killer Flu since Friday night! I say “unofficial” because I was too sick to even get myself to the doctor to get ...
10 Things Because it's Been a While
Feels like forever since I last wrote! Just for making you wait so long, here are 10 things: Had a date with T&D last Friday night. I thought it went smashingly well until we ended up at ...
Mini-Manic Episode?
Good morning!!! Y’all. It’s another one of those days that I can’t explain at all. Maybe I am low-grade manic? I don’t know, but every so often I get this feeling of pure euphoria and I’m havi...
In Between Times
Hi. I’m at the office again. Feels like I live here lately. I know I’m making progress - sales meeting next week and prepping to give several presentations (already did a dry run this morning ...
