Things that make you go hmmm?.

Posted on January 13, 2010
So I had my review today. Big Boss was there with Direct Boss. It was weird… No negative comments on written form – all sunshine and “excellent”. Duh. Cause I am. But were there goals for this year? No. Feedback on areas that need improvement? Not [...

Boo-hoo

Posted on January 08, 2010
I cried at work today. In front of one of the directors of our three departmental groups. Lost it. Hard! Frustration, stress, exhaustion, irritation = bad, bad, bad. I am taking tomorrow off. Obviously I am losing it… Tweet This Post

Reframing

Posted on January 05, 2010
Okay, I said that. And then I read this. Thank you, as always, T, for making me see things more clearly and reminding me that my life is within my own control. (((HUGS))) And even though I did indeed send you the card, I am now ordering the book!! Apparently [...

Ugh, women?

Posted on January 05, 2010
I left work today remembering why I’d sworn off ever working for a woman again. And then kicking myself for being such a horrible sexist jerk. And then wishing I’d kicked the nasty bitch across the table who cut me down in the middle of a meeting I was running with a few [...

New Year, Fresh Start?

Posted on January 01, 2010
Have I mentioned I adore Mr. V? He’s the best. Took me out to dinner last night for my birthday with his sister and brother-in-law (and Pumpkinhead) and got me my favorite Mexican soup because he knew I was feeling crappy. Then we came home and he put me to bed with [...

That Time of Year

Posted on December 30, 2009
Around this time last year I was in incredible pain. Apparently this has been a common thing for the past three years or so in December/January. I am again in pain and ready to inject my elbow with monkey saliva to get relief. Everything hurts/burns...

Suckage

Posted on December 23, 2009
Today sucked on so many levels. Started off day with a call from Chapin saying he was going to return Pumpkinhead two days early, without the bag I sent or his Nintendo, at 3 p.m. when I had a critical conference call scheduled. Nice… Got into work and dealt with some seriously arrogant “we’re [...

Noise Sensitivity

Posted on December 22, 2009
Noise drives me nuts. Fingernails tapping on a desk. The sound of people chewing. A dog slurping its water. The sniffle of someone with a cold. It is so irritating it is almost physically painful to me. Tonight Mr. V got really pissed at me because a Cindy Crawford [...

Work, work, work

Posted on December 12, 2009
To answer Shels, no, no promotion or bonus. Not sure if/when/if ever that will happen. However, I did put my resume on Monster this week just to see what is out there. I love the work I do and really enjoy my job. But I am extraordinarily over-extended and rather than [...

More Family Drama

Posted on November 23, 2009
So my mother is at it again. Sigh… She and my father have moved to the Middle East. Of course, despite a generous housing allowance, my mother chose an apartment way beyond their means. They have already had me pull $10k out of an annuity to cover the costs of furniture [...
