A full month in (as of yesterday) and I'm still loving my job. It's so nice to be in a place that's full of people who are committed to working for the greater good. The political and religious diversity is just an added benefit.
We have a coffee machine at work, and it's a problem. I'm unable to ignore the pull of that constant caffeine. It was easy to turn down in my old office, because the coffee wasn't all that great anyway, but here it's different. It's GOOD coffee. And I've been drinking it. A lot.
Hershey's Milk Chocolate bars have to be one of the grossest candies out there. It's sickeningly sweet and chalky. Yet I eat them anyway, when they're available. I'm such a chocolate whore.
I co-hosted a baby shower last weekend for my old high school BFF. Sometimes it's so hard to believe that we're all grown up and have real jobs and real families. I know I've talked about it before, but seeing her giant belly full of twin girls got me thinking about how much trouble we used to get in together and now we're all responsible and stuff. How un-fun :)
Speaking of baby showers, it seems like the world is conspiring against me when it comes to babies. Everyone and their mother is pregnant right now, even people who probably shouldn't be (yes, I said it, and yes, I'm judgy sometimes). We probably need to decide once and for all whether we'll add a second baby or not. Our minds seem to change on a daily basis. Well, C's, anyway, I have a feeling that I would jump at the chance.
It's July already. How scary is that? The year is already half over. Toddler C is going to be TWO in a month! How the hell did that happen? Expect sappy posts to come soon. The tears are welling up just thinking about it.
Office Quote Time!
Wow, another Dwight quote. This one is in honor of the local(ish) bear attack from earlier in the week.
Rule 17: Don't turn your back on bears, men you have wronged or the dominant Turkey during mating season. There are 40 rules all Shrute boys must learn before the age of 5. [sings] Learn your rules, you better learn your rules. If you don't you'll be eaten in your sleep! Hah!
Love that rule...and that fact that you enjoy your job. Seems like that is sooo rare these days!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and holiday!
So glad you are enjoying your job. I left a job last summer after nine years, took a huge pay cut to come to my current job, but I'm so much happier. It makes a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I swear, your header is one of my all-time favorites in blogland. How will you ever move on from it?! :( (not saying you should AT ALL)
ReplyDeleteYeah, why do we even waste the calories on those plain old Hershey bars?!
Almost two? He mast be getting really, really cute :) Good luck with your decision. I say go for it, haha!
We can't make up our mind about number two either! Nice to meet someone in the same boat!
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Friday Fragments... yeah, I'm a bit late!
Have a great weekend!
