    Time Event
    11:35a
    Etc.
    So yesterday D and I went to my parents' house for my bday celebration. We had a great time! Of course there was too much food and too much drink *sigh*, but on birthdays, these things are to be expected, and hopefully dutifully enjoyed. My present was a beautiful wool suit. It's seriously adorable. It's grey, and it has 3/4 sleeves, and the coat is kind of cropped with a belted waist. The skirt is very hour glass, with an incredibly nipped, defined, high waist. It is a size 2. I can button the skirt, and it fits me beautifully everywhere but my waist. The jacket hides how poorly the skirt fits my waist. My goal is to have that skirt fit me perfectly by January.

    Bad, I know.

    I should probably just exchange it for a larger size, but...I don't want to! It will be entirely too large everywhere else, I'm sure of it. Gahhhhh.

    I'm sure if I stopped drinking so damn much and really got back into pilates I could fit it without tooo much trouble.

    What do you think?

    I can't believe I have ANOTHER presentation due this week. I just want the semester to be over.

    The annual report SUCKS.It is FORTY SIX pages and growing. As usual, Cheryl isn't doing anything. I don't see how she expects me to do the write ups for hearings I never attended. I don't want to go to class tonight, and I don't want to meet before class for that goddamn presentation. One of these chicks won't even be back in town until Wednesday.

    Shoot. Me.

    Friday was cool. We hung out with some of D's friends, another married couple, and we saw Borat (funny, but not as funny as hoped), and then we drank martinis at their house until 4am. Good times! Damn though, it's not like I needed the calories. Why is it that to have friends you have to eat and drink with them all the time??? So annoying. Saturday was an incredibly relaxing lazy day. We did nothing. I started reading Atlas Shrugged. I got 200 pages in. I don't know where I'm going to find the time to read the next 800 pages...

    Allergic to work!
    I'm convinced that I'm allergic to being here. ALL I do is sneeze. All the time. No matter what. I think I'm going to start counting how many times a day I sneeze here. I think I have already sneezed close to 20 times!

    Food and job stuff
    Food today:

    On a non-food related note, I just got a call from one of the muckity mucks I interviewed with, and I got something like an offer. Sort of. Basically, someone moved internally, and it looks like they took the social services position that I wanted.

    The good news? I had smartly named a position I knew no one else would want as my second choice, and they wanted to make sure I still wanted it. I said that I absolutely would, and he said he'd start making moves in that direction, and that if I got it, I would get the next analyst position that opened up. Actually, this is probably for the best. It would be the easiest position in that it wouldn't require quite as many hours, and I'd probably be able to take a class. Although at this point, the last thing I want to do is take another class. I HATE CLASS. The reason others wouldn't want it as much is because it's considered to be more boring and a bit less prestigous, but the salary is the same, so I really don't care. Keep your fingers crossed!!

    Oh, and I got two numbers on my lottery ticket, so I didn't win. Hmph! Sort of close though? I'm just hoping for the job at this point.
