A Mom Attitude

My Mom and I exchanged several emails this weekend about when I was arriving. She said she had it down on her calendar but I have seen her calendar and know that Tuesdays can look like Thursdays and November could be October or December ...

So I told her my arrival time just to make sure - 9:40 a.m. Saturday. She acted as if she was kind of annoyed since she said she knew when it was. So I dropped it.

Then last night I mentioned that Friday was going to be a busy day ending with the fight. This morning I get a note saying 'flight? where are you going on Friday? did I miss some information?' So I told her that I was leaving at 10:20 p.m. Friday to get to Charleston at 9:40 a.m. on Saturday. She allowed as how she was ever so surprised to hear I was taking the red eye. How in the fuck else could I get there at 10 a.m.?????? It's going to be a long long week.

And clearly I need to spend some quality time between now and then developing a new and improved attitude.

I am sorry

To those of you who love to hear me whine and bitch and complain and ridicule the Twinkees, I am sorry, but the instance of this is set to go way way down. I am moving my desk to another part of the office. Yahoo!!!! I'm nearly moved now and delighted. Thank you very much.

My new cube is over by the engineers. No squealing, no idle chit chat. Whew. I'll be sitting next to Kenny who is the IT department now that BJ got promoted.

Loyalty

I must confess. I have started a blog. I feel so dirty. I may not keep it, but I am giving it a test drive. It's for my knitting projects. I thought about starting another Live Journal and I might still but I thought I'd give the blog deal a go since it's just a leetle more suited to what I have in mind...

I need to think it out some more but it helps to have the blog structure to think with.
