NJM 21 - An Option

Yeah, it sloooowly sinks in. I do have all the information. I’m definitely an option and certainly not a priority. I should remain optimistic, but Parliament is right - if Steve McQueen bails ...


Guess what? After all of that nonsense I wrote yesterday and over the past few days, I thought, what do I have to lose? Nothing. So I bit the bullet and invited Steve McQueen to the Holiday Par...

NJM 19 - Sunday Funday

You guys. So tired. I’m sorry to write entries like this, but it is what it is. I got up not-so-early after sleeping a LOT last night (was really delicious) and walked the dog for over 2 hours,...

NJM 18 - Scorpy Birthday!*

Just back from an afternoon and evening with Cindy. We went to the ballet (The Nutcracker) and then to dinner. * This was our Scorpio Birthdays celebration to ourselves! Was a lovely, lovely ev...

NJM 17 - On Lockdown

So, you know it’s pretty serious when you go into a company-wide meeting and there is an announcement that there’s a disgruntled employee who was fired this morning and now the building is on loc...

NJM 16 - Not Much, You?

I’m just tired. Been a long week so far and I have to give my first presentation to my team tomorrow. Nervous and not ready, I’m going to have to get up earlier than normal, skip my workout and ...

NJM 15 - Google Docs Down!

Whelp. I’ve been using Google Docs to compose my entries for months now. I started an entry earlier today and now the motherfucker is down, so… You will get a mini-entry today for a few reason...

NJM 14 - Out and About

Today I have been spending the day doing competitive research, so that means I’m out of the office and running all over town. I have stopped to get a cup of coffee and do some emails before I ha...

NJM 13 - Nothing Else Going On

Well. I never saw Steve McQueen last night and I guess that’s…okay? I mean, his mom is 83 and was having heart issues happening yesterday. She has a pacemaker and other stuff. Her husband wa...

NJM 12 - Sunday Spa Day

Last night I went to bed at around 6pm. This, after sleeping much of my Saturday away due to a severe hangover from the night before and getting in at nearly 4am from the Insanely Rich Dude’s pl...


First off, I love you guys. Thank you so much for the notes of encouragement, and most of all, the words of wisdom! I love reading each and every thought. It’s helpful. Truly. That being said...

NJM 10 - Big Girl Pants

I’ve gotten some interesting and important messages via PB recently that I’ve used as fuel to do a lot of thinking overnight and today. Perhaps, at 50, I can finally understand a little better. ...

NJM 9 - To Clarify...

I should clarify what I wrote about yesterday. I don’t actually mean that Steve McQueen set out to get me drunk so he could get me in bed. I don’t think that at all, and I shouldn’t have writte...

NJM 8 - Hey Humpers!

Hello Hump Day! I’ve been trying to tap this out all day but I’ve had many, many meetings since first thing in the morning. I should be doing a couple of things to finish off my workday, but I w...

NJM 7 - Up In the Air

Just barely starting to feel human again. I now realize that Steve McQueen and I drank waaaaaayyyyy too much on Sunday afternoon/night. Like, WAY TOO MUCH. I was a waste at work yesterday and I...


Not sure how much there is to say, really. It was fun. Steve McQueen had asked me if I wanted to do something in the afternoon yesterday. Turns out he wanted to have a couple of people over to ...

NJM 5 - Well, Whoops.

I accidentally had sex with Steve McQueen. Oops.

NJM - Entry 4: Making Dinner

I’m making some dinner as I type this out. Waiting for the water to boil so I can plop some delicious goat cheese ravioli in. Pretty much off the PLAN as I have been for the last several days. ...

NJM - Entry 3: On Flakes

I have a lot to write, but I’m just squeaking this one out before I fall asleep. That’s gonna be soon, so I won’t get a lot out. Just know I’m feeling a lot of things. I took the day off work t...


I got a lot of advice/ribbing from my girlfriends at brunch regarding my non-disclosure of the fact that last Thursday was my actual birthday and I didn’t tell/remind Steve McQueen while we were ...

NoJoMo! Entry 1

OMG. I didn’t get an entry in yesterday (Nov. 1) and I LOVE doing NoJoMo. Can I consider this one November 1? I’m going to backdate this. I have lots to say! Stay tuned.

The Birthday Continues!

My 50th Birthday was Thursday. And while I didn’t really do much that was birthday-like (cake, candles, etc.) on this particular day, I have to say that I’ve milked the birthday issue pretty muc...


First of all, Happy Birthday to meeeee!! Today I turn 50, and it has been a pretty fun day even though I’ve been in the office allllll damn day. Lots of fun messages on social media, via text a...


Tuesday Night: Still in shock from the dream job opening up, I went home (sans the dog because she was going to hang out with work buds until I got back from road trip and returned back to work ...


I’m still at the office. I went in for my annual review, expecting to get pummeled and ripped to shreds. I was expecting to start practicing my resignation speech. I was expecting to have to d...
