Got an extra pat down at Security even though I went through the scanner. Not sure what THAT was about.

I really want a milkshake, but it's snowing again. Ice cream shops should deliver.

New building is bad?

This is the cupcake I bought on Tuesday but was too full to eat then. It got superseded by the Neapolitan cake yesterday. Still good today!

I want. NOM!!! Or a cupcake. I'm not picky. I have the stuff to bake cupcakes but I'm still all up in the ick and I hate cooking when I'm sick. No matter how many times I wash my hands and cough away from what I'm cooking, I feel like I'm just brewing more germs.

New building was planned before we acquired attorneys and staff from another firm. New building really not big enough.

I feel your pain, Lee. They moved my division into the building we're in now to consolidate us all in one place (we were in three or four different buildings - it was before my time by 6 months.) Five years later and we're back to being in three buildings. We went from around 90 employees when I started to over 160 today. And now the governor wants to cut our budget for the next two years by 300 million dollars. Oy. Can't wait for the fallout from that!

Pretty much.

That was to the oops, but the waiting for the fallout applies too.

It's amusing how the youngish men of my company taunt each other over taking the stairs. I can't tell if they're Sales or developers or what, but I've overheard men speak very disapprovingly about a co-worker who decided to take the elevator. There are benefits to being a middle-aged fat woman.

I am on my plane. I haven't killed anyone, so after I crunch some data tonight, it's king cake and parades and fried oysters for me.
