I think I just got paid.
Ok.
Today, I can't be bothered with what I'm doing, which is nothing.
I'm going to leave work early with my camera and have fun, because sitting at work just so that I'm not using up time sucks. I mean seriously, I'm just sitting here for no reason at all.
It's way lame.
I have a bunch of stuff to post about, but I don't even feel like it.
This weekend, we went to see the Bourne Ultimatum, and it was pretty good, which is saying something because I don't generally like action movies. It was even cooler because we had free ticket vouchers from some competition thing D won last year in law school.
My eyelid is twitching.
I just tried to talk to my coworker, but she had her headphones on, and I was just talking to myself.
I had a hard time sleeping again last night. I don't know what it is. I just hit the sheets, and even if I was dead tired before doing so, my mind switchs on, and I'm awake.
I thought about taking an Ambien, but then I was afraid I wouldn't be able to wake up in a timely manner in the AM. Blaah.
Anyhow, this weekend, D and I went to my parents' house on Saturday for a BBQ type thing, and when we told my parents we got a Wii, my mom got really excited and thought we were having a kid. Yeah. Awkward. *sigh*
Last night class totally sucked. There's this woman who I hate. She talks constantly, and when she talks, she's really loud, and she repeats herself, and she's really egotistic, and she's just I this I that I do this I am the best I I I I I ....She's horribly annoying. Whenever she opens her mouth, I swear I feel a collective groan/eye roll in the room, but I suppose that could just be me. Anyways, I keep ending up in a group with this woman when we have to discuss our cases. Next time I have to make sure to sit the right number of seats away so I don't end up in her group again. She's so domineering, and she's such a bitch. Like...we had a case study about this international pharma company that was having a lot of problems. They were making the same mistakes in different markets, and they were suffering from a serious case of silo mentality. There was no knowledge sharing, no accountability, no communication, and the different managers of the different countries' markets ran each business like an entrepreneur, too independent...no sense of team. They didn't use email or voicemail either. Anyhow this one guy and I suggested using IT to help break down barriers and foster learning between the different markets by requiring regular reporting of successes and failures and then requiring distribution of this information to key strategic players like marketing and sales execs and government relations liasons. She....said that IT would be too expensive and that they shouldn't implement IT and that it would fail and that they should consolidate and do it all on the phone. I'm not even going to get into all the reasons that's idiotic, but gah! Who could argue against implementing IT for an international pharma company in 2007? What is she? Amish?
Anyhow. Ugh.
Class. I was so spoiled by not having any classes this summer.
My eyelid is still twitching. Make it stop?
I need to look fabulous in a matter of weeks. Party in NYC.
What...will...I...wear??? GAH?!
Mugs is awesome. He's so springy and bouncy and cuddly.
Rumor is we're supposed to be getting bonuses soon. I'm praying for 5% because that would be life changing.
The film I did didn't make the cut for the big film fest. Boo. Hiss.
On the upside, my skin looks awesome today, and I almost almost almost look thin.

The drinking thing is going well. I think we had drinks on Saturday and nothing since. God, I have to lose weight just by drinking less if nothing else, don't I? I mean it's math. It has to happen.
Tonight we're going to the gym.
I'm finally not sore any more, so I'm back on the workout wagon.
Whhheeeeeeee....
Hopefully I can pick up some produce. I'm having fruit withdrawls.
I miss creative people. I miss having them in my life. They inspire me. Unfortunately, creative people don't work for the government, and they generally don't seem to study business. (what the hell am I doing?) Where are they? Even if I did find them, somehow I feel sure that they would shun me for my apparent lack of creative street cred.
