Updates on Various in These Foolish Things
Preggers? Well, the pee stick says I’m not, but the instructions say that if it says negative to try again in three days. I’ll do it, but I’m not freaking out. I think that there are a combinat...
Ten Additional Things: End of July Edition in These Foolish Things
Vegas was weird, as you might imagine. First, it was my company “award” during the first part of the trip. See, we surpassed our goals so we got to go early over the weekend (even got to take...
10 More Things. in These Foolish Things
My gawd, the Napa trip last weekend with my college girls was IN-SANELY spectacular! I can’t even begin to tell you how much fun I/we had. From the vineyards to the Napa County Fair, from sip...
10 Wine-y Things in These Foolish Things
I’m on a plane bound for San Francisco. I’m off on a 4-day weekend after last week’s 3-day weekend and next week’s 3-day weekend (a work function, but we all get Friday off to travel to and han...
10 Quick Things! in These Foolish Things
I have been saving an entry on China thinking it would be the first thing I write when I get back. I’ve been back three weeks now. I keep stalling on the entry (there’s LOTS) and there’s so man...
The Other Side.. in These Foolish Things
…of the world. Hi from Shanghai, China. I am stressed beyond belief, so I thought I’d tap out an entry instead of shooting off more pissed off emails to my colleagues and my boss. Lord. My cust...
The Bulldog and the RAD in These Foolish Things
First thing’s first: I sent the email to the Bulldog (go back and read the entry titled “Dear Bulldog”). No reply, of course, but at least I feel like I said something…anything. I actually he...
Go High-End if You're Feeling Low in These Foolish Things
I love the title - just saw someone on Instagram post a bunch of expensive cosmetics and that was the photo caption. I haven’t sent that email (previous entry) to the Bulldog yet. Should I? I’m...
Dear Bulldog, in These Foolish Things
I’m sorry that I’m sending this via email, but it’s only because we tend to go off on tangents when we talk and I have a hard time getting my point across sometimes. I’ll put it to you in the sim...
So Much. And Yet... in These Foolish Things
Still marching in place. I’m happy it’s Friday, but my China trip is fast approaching and I’m getting really stressed. So is my staff. I’m afraid they’re all going to quit on me. One of my as...
Beginning of a Week - In Spurts. in These Foolish Things
May 4 – Monday, Again. Another weekend come and gone. I am absolutely not ready for this week, and I’m sad that the weekend is over. I also spent quite a bit of it with the Bulldog – him telling...
April 30 - Presentation Day in These Foolish Things
I’m back on yet another plane. Presentation done and over with. Gotta say, I don’t feel as strongly about this one as I did last week’s. But I was rushed for time AND the CEO ended up attendin...
April 29 - Another Plane in These Foolish Things
Headed to San Diego, mimosa in hand. I gotta get into this presentation mindset. Mimosa is helping. So is the upgrade I got for this flight. And the location. I could be going somewhere wors...
April 27 - Under the Gun/Guy in These Foolish Things
I am busy, busy, busy at work. So busy that I can’t wait to leave work every day - my weekends are like dreams come true, and I spend them NOT thinking about work as much as I possibly can. Las...
April 22 in These Foolish Things
Back on another plane, exhausted. Business trips really wear me out. These all-day meetings are a drain. Monday, we arrived at a beautiful resort, and it was a beautiful day in Phoenix. We we...
April 20 in These Foolish Things
Weird weekend starting with a weird end to the week. I wish, wish, wish I could either get it together with the Bulldog or get out. But here I keep going on vacillating between bliss and disapp...
April 16 in These Foolish Things
I miss writing every day like I did in March. I think I’m going to try a little bit harder - even if it’s just to get a few thoughts in. Today was a pretty rough day at work. Actually, this who...
Life Not Quite Imitating Art in These Foolish Things
Started to write many entries in my head. Not really sure what’s going on in there. I’m annoyed with myself lately. Just for various reasons. I let the Bulldog get under my skin and it’s itchi...
Of Rocks, Talks, and Lip Locks in These Foolish Things
I avoided talking with SexyPants the other night after I asked him if he wanted to discuss The Ring. When he called I was actually on the phone discussing my options with the Bulldog. I asked ...
Of Work and Dreams and Cars and Rings in These Foolish Things
Monday. Back at work today after a lovely, lovely weekend. I didn’t sleep well and had a really hard time waking up this morning. Didn’t do my workout, and I’m pissed at myself for that becaus...
Springtime Party in These Foolish Things
What fun! I’m so happy I had that party last night. It seemed to be just what the doctor ordered. The great thing was that I got to see several friends I hadn’t seen in a long, long time…all in...
April 2 in These Foolish Things
I wrote this on my Facebook wall: *Prohibition has ended! What did I learn from a month of no alcohol? - I didn’t go out much - I didn’t win friends - I didn’t lose we...
March 31 in These Foolish Things
I missed squeaking in my LAST entry of my All-Write and No-Drink Month! Damn. Yesterday was a 7. But the sex made it a 9. I am free to drink now, but not sure that I want to. Must cancel my date...
March 30 in These Foolish Things
Today was a 5. Neutral. Work sucked, but everything else was okay, I guess. Tomorrow is my last day of self-imposed sobriety. I still haven’t pulled the trigger on canceling with SB on Wednesd...
March 29 in These Foolish Things
Home stretch with the drinking moratorium. Got up today and went on a long, long walk. Such a long walk that the puppy had to be carried home! Poor thing…that walk just wore her out. I was...
