The new restaurant near me has fried hominy on the menu. Reportedly muy delicioso.

I came in here to say something and have no idea what it was. Huh.

ETA: Oh yeah!

Heh. Yeah. I concur. (as would Hec and JZ)

I just talked with a guy who might have an internal job op for me. This is the guy who wanted to meet with me next week, but that is going to be delayed a bit.

Anyway, he sounded very interested and has gotten a bunch of very positive recommendations from others about me.

One of his ideas was to move me to a cube closer to the one other person in this office who does the work I want to do. Makes sense, right?

Well, some of you may recall I moved cubes a few months ago and had to displace someone in the process. Well, the most logical cube for me to go into is the one where that displaced person got moved. So I may end up bumping that person twice. Ummm, sorry?

Next time I talk with this manager I'm going to be more assertive about asking if this is a new position or if I'd still be in my current group but working for him or what he sees as happening there - follow-ed up with salary type questions.

Go, Suzi! Very exciting stuff.

Grandma-ma, vw.

I just finished my 3 mile run. I really wish I hadn't needed to skip 2 weeks of training. Man is this challenging to do. Thursday is only 2 miles. I can do that. Sunday, the long run, I might keep at 4 miles instead of 4.5. Also, I need to stop being an idiot and just go ahead an schedule a massage for myself. Or at least try to work on them again myself.

not here. Going out the door. Really. (its just, normally I'm still hitting snooze at this time. Maybe I'll hit Jamba Juice)

~ma to vw's Grandma.

If you see me in here again, tell me to GET OUT. I have so much school stuff to do today.

d, you can do it! Also, if you feel you need to walk the extra .5 on Saturday, do that.

(Says the woman who had to cut her run short at 2 miles today 'cuz she felt like she was gonna pass out. Eating Dinner is Our Friend.)

Good luck Suzi!

I'm having a strange day. Not really bad strange, just...I don't know.

After months of leaving L alone, exH has started up with the nasty passive agressive emails again. Lil'est sis is stressing about getting back to Louisiana next month (which is a whole nother thing. I think LS and I won't be able to be there for Christmas, but we're all trying to make it for LB's birthday celebration which has me dwelling on his death), and we're thinking about foregoing Christmas presents all together and just getting everybody home.

Then, I got a kind of upsetting answer on a survey thingie a friend, who ok I used to date, but it was a long time ago. Anyway, the question was, "What was the saddest time in your life," and it was apparently my breaking up with him. I know everybody hurts somebody, but I feel really badly about it.

Lastly, there's this trip, and my friend who is meeting me there and then jetting off to Rome has all these questions, and sure they're good questions, but they're making me nervous about this trip.

Ok. No more mememe.

Why would he put something like this on something he knew you'd see? asshole.

I have no patience for anyone today. And am grinding my teeth into nubbins.

When is your trip?

I think it's a big trip and so nervousness is completely normal. That doesn't mean you won't have a fantastic time!

d, you can do it! Also, if you feel you need to walk the extra .5 on Saturday, do that.

Yes, this!! GO, d!!! I'm trying to start running again and have promised a friend I'd do a 5-mile race with him in Dec. In a month. Yikes!! I'm sure I'll end up walking most of it. Which is cool for me.
