Vibrant.(Still) Unrepentant. Badass. Old. Queer

Good Evening, Kittens! It's been a heckuvaweek (so far). Monday, I went to the Trader Joe's.  And, then, I ironed 10 shirts.  Later, K-Factor came down and we watched "True Grit" (the remake, not the original).  It was pretty damn awesome.  I also made a potato leek soup (plus carrots).  It was delicious. Later that evening, K-Factor and I went to pottery class.  I made three bowls, worked on my mini-soup tureen project, and glazed two mugs and a bowl.  Good times. Tuesday, after work, I went for a 3.5 mile run.  And, then, I attended my monthly co-op board meeting.  Joy. Wednesday, I did laundry and talked to my BFF from college.  AND, today, THURSDAY, I had the job interview.  I think it went well.  I hope it went well.  I need the significant increase in salary that it would bring.  And, this evening, another Board member and I had an orientation/interview with a prospective buyer of one of the vacant u...

Good (way too early) Morning, Kittens. I didn't make it to the Men's Wearhouse yesterday. It was too cold and rainy and by the end of the workday all I wanted to do was go home and veg on the sofa. Perhaps, I will go today ... or maybe tomorrow. Things at work are the same. We are slowly making progress on my ability to access the internet. My interim security clearance is almost done. AND, I finally have a working phone (I am not able to access the voicemail though). My weekend is chock full o' fun and excitement. I have so much to do and get caught up on. I was thinking of visiting a friend for her 40th birthday in NC, but I don't think I can handle a weekend trip (7+ hour drive) and do everything I need to get done. Saturday is Co-op Yardwork Day. Leaf raking! Bulb planting! Sunday, after brunch with my friend, CJ, I need to go to the pottery studio to finish up projects, b/c Monday is the final class. I will still need to go in at some point to do some f...

Good Evening, Kittens. Work. It is KEEEEEEEEEEEEELLIng me. BUT, it is also PAAAAAAAAAYing the bills. So, I guess I will keep doing it. I just have no time. I hope to get caught up this weekend with the cleaning and the grocery shopping and the dating the cute guy who I went out with before I got the job. Plus, I think the Jakester gave me his cold. I am taking lots of Vitamin C and drinking juice. Combine feeling icky with feeling tired from adjusting to this new schedule and you've got me being tired and icky. Fun times. And, here's the shirt/tie combo from today: Yes. I went with Tie B. Have a great night. I need to finish laundry (fold and put away), wash the dishes, prep clothes for tomorrow, set up the coffee maker, take more Vitamin C, have a cocktail, spend some quality kitty time, and then bed (by 11 *fingers crossed*). The madness begins again tomorrow at 530AM. *smooches*

Good evening, Kittens. Sorry for the lack of posting. Work is not busy, but time-consuming. I have to be up at 5:30 to leave at 6:45 to be at work at 7:30. I won't have internet there until my security clearance is approved (which won't happen until I can complete the application ... which is done online ... do you see the problem?). Until then, not much time to blog, either in the morning or when I get home. I will make it up to you somehow, I'm sure. So, here's a picture of the chili peppers I just "harvested". There's a chance of frost so I picked most of what was left on the plant: Tasty. Now, I must iron. *smooches*

Good (Nearly) Martini Time, Kittens. I just got home from NYC about an hour ago. I am beat. But must get organized for WORK tomorrow and Pottery Class tonight. Am uploading pix to flickr now. At some point a Full Expose on my Halloween Weekend in NYC will be posted. Stay tuned. *smooches*
