Odd Jobs

Oh, here’s more stuff I’ve forgotten to write down in the last week or so. My dream job was posted at my former company a couple of weeks ago - did I tell you this? THIS is the job I have been w...

That's Why We Love You!

ODD/CRAZY things that have happened in the last day or so: Just finished a meeting with Boss. I be-bopped into his office full of happiness just because that’s how I roll. He noticed my attit...

Sparkless

Was in bed earlyish on Friday after taking myself to dinner at this new Mexican joint with the dog. I had ceviche and a whole bunch of chips and ONE big glass of bubbles. The weather was gorgeous...

Show's Over

Hello! I’m home from my trade show! It was a fast and furious week as this week tends to be every year, and I’m relieved and sad at the same time - and there’s always so much follow up afterwar...

Epic St. Pat's Weekend

Wow. What a weekend. It nearly wiped me out! Started Saturday with a St. Patrick’s Day 5K. As I wrote earlier, it was the first 5K race I’ve run in 30 years! I went into this with the idea that ...


Work’s gotten super busy - next week is the big trade show and luckily I feel 100% ready for that. The big deal is that I found out YESTERDAY that a very important customer will be here at our o...


So funny. I wrote yesterday’s RAD after three mimosas and a power nap! Today, after having a semi-night’s sleep (Daylight Savings + 4:30am workout) and some reflection, I realize I left a few s...

RAD: Chef K.

Name: Chef K. Introduction Platform: A mutual friend set us up - which is kind of funny in and of itself because it was actually kind of a joke that I even asked about Chef K. at the Oscars pa...

While the Cat's Away...

All execs are out of the office at an offsite strategy session today and so I didn’t arrive to any emergencies or anything - which was nice for a change. Boss’s side hustle appears to be moving ...

YEAAAAHHHH!

Something made me genuinely smile so hard yesterday. Let’s back up to the Oscar party a week from last Sunday. There were some people there I hadn’t seen in a long, long time. One person in par...

Early Sunday Evening

Sunday evening. Well, this weekend was my first weekend since mid-September without The Scot. How weird it was. I mean, we’ve seen each other via FaceTime at least every weekend for the last 6...


I’m starting this entry on a downer of a note because some things that really SUCK have happened recently, but I plan on ending this entry on a positive note…if I can think of some things. Things...

The Week Goes On...

I have a million things running through my brain today. It’s been super busy at work. All of a sudden, everybody wants me to report on the progress of The Line I Created (TLIC) as well as the s...

RAD: Joe Whoa!*

Name: Joe Whoa! Introduction Platform: Bumble. He looked cute and close. A tad on the young-ish side for me, but handsome and interesting looking. Said he lived downtown, so bonus. Age: 43 R...


OMG - the gym was packed full of hot guys on Saturday morning for the big 90 minute class! I’m not sure where these guys are coming from. Is it that I’m just finally athletic enough to put so...

Gurgle...bloat.

Happy Friday. I am so fucking over this office that I’m going to spend the last of my workday writing an entry. How about that? I told you we had our big sales meeting here over the week, right?...

Got There...But It's Tricky

This week is our International Sales Meeting at work. It’s in preparation for our big trade show next month and it is a lot of work and preparation and blood, sweat and tears on our (counterpart...


Got the blues so bad I’m paralyzed! Seriously need to take the dog for a walk, but I need to get this out quickly, I think. Picked dog up from daycare on Friday evening. There’s construction goi...

Impromptu

Happy Friday! It’s finally here! Not any big deal, really since I have another HUGE PPT presentation to work on for next week’s big sales meeting, but I’m just glad it’s here anyway. Yesterday’...


Well. Last night’s date with Dr. D was verrrry interesting! Remember how I’d suggested that we meet at this sexy little cocktail lounge? Dr. D said he was game to try it, but it turns out the...

HUMP-day

And now it’s Wednesday. First thing this morning I arrived at the office to an email from Brown Nosey about one of the financial presentations I have to give tomorrow. We have to do these pres...

The Plots Thicken!

Dr. D from previous entry called me last night to chat. I thought that he might have been calling to ask me out, but we ended up just doing a lot of gabbing and during that time I figured out a ...

RAD: Doctor D.

Name: Doctor D….as in drawl, as in Southern Drawl, which he has. Introduction Platform: Bumble. Still on there sporadically and checking in from time to time. He’d ‘extended’ my time, which i...

Staff Lunch

....and it’s Friday. I am looking forward to knocking a bunch of shit out at work today (mostly presentations) and then heading home for a weekend of nesting. I literally have nothing planned a...

SexyEx

Just out of first meeting of the day. Man, Brown Nosey is like a dog on a bone - not just with me, but with everyone! She was REALLY pushing my engineer on some new product development and I ju...
