Congratulations, Consuela!
It's been a year of changes and transitions for you.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Juliana introduced me to 3 Olive Cherry Vodka, for lo she is evil.
which, to take the credit, I introduced her to.
Actually, not to rain on your parade, darling, but I was drinking Three Olives Cherry & 7ups long before I knew you - we had it at the Market BBQ in MSP & it was my drink of choice at karaoke. You just supplied it when I hadn't had it for nigh on 6 months, for which I was very grateful.
YAY Consuela!!!
Gah. Still have the ick. Want to go running, but am doubtful of motivation.

ah, this I did not know. I should have realized that someone with such excellent taste would already have known of the 3 Olives

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congrats, Consuela! I hope the change is worth the stress.

It's to a much lower-stress job, although only a two-year position. Change is good, I have to remind myself of that.
It's going to be an interesting year, I think.
One of the things I'm really looking forward to is that this entity allows a compressed work schedule, so if I work 9-hour days for 2 weeks, I get alternate Fridays off. Two three-day weekends per month! Awesome!
Really, the stress is about leaving my current position, where I'm a manager and have people working for me and people relying on me. And I know I don't owe the company anything, but I really like the people I work with; so leaving them, and the flexibility of private industry, is going to be a little hard.

Congrats, Consuela!
Just tried to kill myself choking on a chip and coffee. Please let me not die of something so incredibly stupid - She died because she snacked.

Don't be adding "Mama" to your screen name, Cass.Not. Helping.
Funny as hell though. Okay, goal for the day is to not have anything more than air in my lungs.
