Back in the Groove
July 1st, 2008 by Kateastrophe
Well I’m back in the real life . . . not loving it so much, but what can you do. A girl’s gotta pay the bills, right?\
The ten year reunion? A million times better than I ever expected it could be. I went to school with some of the world’s neatest people, who grew up into some of the world’s coolest adults with some of the world’s CUTEST kids. Also, the dress I FINALLY found at the midnight hour? A-MAZING. It’s my new favorite thing ever. I felt SO good that night, which made it all the more enjoyable. I will see what I can do about posting some pictures. I took a lot of other people and only a couple of myself and my girlfriends, but what can ya do?
The new boss is still as cool as I thought he was. We’re digging in this week and getting started on a new website, new messaging, new collateral, new press information . . . basically NEW EVERYTHING. I have my work cut out for me. Luckily, I like the general giving the marching orders, so I’ll march happily.
It’s hot here. Really, really hot. I’m not surprised or anything, I’ve just been lucky to have missed most of the really hot days so far this year. Now I’m sort of immersed in hotness. It’s a little bit uncomfortable. We were thinking of getting the hell out of here for the 4th but I’ve been gone SO much, all I really want to do is hang out at our house and catch up on some sleep, so we’re staying in the hot and having an indoor BBQ. Without fireworks. Or something similar that in no way resembles the 4th of July holiday festivities I grew up with. And now I’ve successfully made myself homesick. There’s nothing like the 4th of July in Provo, Utah. NOTHING. Sigh.
I can’t get my blogroll to work on this Wordpress template. I recently realized how LAME I am for not having a blogroll, so I am going to work on a post with ALL the blogs I read (there are zillions) and then I’ll post THAT post as a page. Sorry to all of you who I read and I don’t currently give linky love to. I’ll fix it, I swear. It’s just going to take a while because there are A LOT of you.
And now that I’ve let my brain explode all over the computer screen (you’re welcome) I am off to do, like, work stuff. Unless I can find something else to distract me . . . hmmmmmm
**Edited to add: I just realized it’s my psuedo half birthday!!! (Since there’s not a June 31st you see.) That also means it’s Miss Molly’s half birthday as well! Happy Half Birthday to us, birthday twin! Yaaaaay!

I figured you were in town this weekend! I’m sure you successfully dazzled them all at that reunion.
Love the energy of all things NEW on the work scene. I miss that sometimes: New clients, new projects, new motivation.
As to the 4th of July in Provo, well…I miss 4th of July in Pasadena. The parade in Sierra Madre (where they only have one band, so they change shirts and come back around a second time), the fireworks in Lacey Park, and the temperature which is NOT as HOT as here (and doesn’t even approach Phoenix). I’ll have to look at loving where I am.

happy half-birthday!
I’m so glad you like your boss. Work is so much easier when you get along with the general.
