Over Qualified

Tracy: How is your day today? Me: It is going okay…just working on end of the month things. How is your day? Tracy: I'm trying to figure out how to pull miracles out of thin air. Me: Hmmmmmm…I was not aware that miracle worker was in your job description… Tracy: Apparently it is. Me: That must look really good on a resume. Tracy: What's that? Miracle Worker? Me: Yeah. Tracy: Too bad that would sound so facetious on a resume huh?

8:30 this morning

Boyfriend, Tracy and I went hiking near Kittredge this morning and stumbled upon some female mule deer. They stopped eating breakfast just long enough to pose for some photos. They seemed quite used to the paparazzi.

Waiting is the hardest part

A few weeks ago I eluded to some change on the horizon. It all had to do with the job that Boyfriend may or may not get up in Seattle. I know I said that that was no longer a possibility, but then it became a possibility again. The situation has been handled horribly. I won't go into detail, I will just say that is has been a nightmare. So for the last 3 weeks we have been waiting to hear if he will get it. 3 weeks...sounds like a long time to wait for a answer huh? That's because it is and we have no idea when a final answer may come. So with the stress of this and my job, and all the things that are up in the air right now I feel like I am at a breaking point. I just need to know one way or the other.

Retraction

So that thing I said about not hating my job so much... Yeah I take that back. I HATE MY JOB!!! The End.

Turning to gold

Went hiking on Kenosha Pass yesterday with my friend Tracy. It is a bit early in the season, but we were hoping to see some color. We were very happy to see that the aspens were indeed starting to turn. In the next couple of weeks the mountainsides will go from green to gold.

Quick Note

There are certain things that I decided not to write about here and my job is one of them. But today I had a realization pertaining to my job that I thought note worthy. I have been thinking for the last 3 months that I hate my new job. I am either panic stricken or bored out of my mind...there has been no middle ground. Today was different somehow. I think that maybe, just maybe I don't hate my my new job as much as I thought I did. I think that things just might be starting to click. And that is all I am ever going to say about my job...probably.

Tie it on

A few weeks ago I went with Boyfriend to pick out a new suit. While he was trying on a navy blue suit I was not going to let him buy I noticed this tie. Normally I shy away from orange...but it reminded me of a kimono and I decided Boyfriend must buy it. Boyfriend had other ideas...he wanted something in a stripe...maybe in red. So I did what anyone would do. I walked around the store sighing and pouting like a 5 year old until he bought the tie and the black (not navy) suit that I picked out. I am glad that Boyfriend and I were able to agree.

Never hurts to check the weather report

Boyfriend and I went to the Rockies game today. It was a gorgeous late summer day in Colorado...a balmy 80 degrees. When the weather is warm this late in the summer some people dress a bit inappropriately. There was an older woman sitting in front of us that could not have been more inappropriately dressed. You think you know where I am going with this...but you don't. This woman was wearing black jeans, a black turtleneck sweater (that's right sweater and a turtleneck one to boot) and she had some sort of fur jacket. Oh did I mention it was in 80s today? The girl sitting behind us put it best: "What...did she think it was going to be 28 degrees?"

For your veiwing pleasure

Japanese binocular soccer...

9021OMG

The new 90210...I LOVE IT! I mean how can you not love a show where one of the main charcters is obviously getting a blowjob in his car out in front of West Beverly High?!?!? The fact that they got Brenda to come back makes it all that much better. I think I found a new guilty pleasure...one that is even better than Murder She Wrote.
