Cellmates

I have a retraction. I thought I would hate where I am sitting in my new building, but it's actually much better than I anticipated. I am hidden away in the corner and no one can come over to my desk without turning a serpentine corner and walking pass a row of echo-ey file cabients. (This is good for detecting footsteps.) Also, I sit on the other side of a 5-1/2 foot wall from our IT guy and he is like my Wilson from Home Improvement. I joke that we are like cellmates in prison. We can hear each other and talk to each other, but even though we've both been here everyday, I haven't seen him in about 2 weeks. We say hello and goodbye everyday and occasionally ask each other questions, and sometimes we pass snacks or office supplies over the wall. However, we can't see each other. It would be weird if the cube wall was transparent, because we're only 2 feet away from each other, so we'd be staring at each other all day. But instead, we remain in a flourescent haze and my days are filled with the question, "Dawn, are you there?"

And here I sit.

Cubicle Joy

Today is a boring day. All of our management team is in Orlando, at a conference, so nothing is really happening here. We sit, I write, people come in late. That's it. I am trying to keep busy. I have so many things I would like to be doing at home, that I could be doing, so these types of days stink. Usually I am really busy, running back and forth and getting everyone's things done. Today, time is movin' slow. I guess it's just the luck of the draw. So I am going to work on some financial stuff, 'cause I might as well fill the time. Try to figure out if I can ever buy a house in the OC. Ya right!

Google my privacy

Ok, I am a private person. I'm not sure why this is, but I am comfortable with it. I like to know what I know about me, and if someone else wants to know, they can ask. It seems like we live in an age where we have so many resources and so much access to information, that we feel entitled to it. Well, the buck stops here. If you want to know my pundit thoughts on things that happen to me, come refresh this page as often as you like. And feel free to Google me and find out about my public life. But if you really want to know me and what's going on with me, email me. If I don't think you stink, I'll give you my phone number and you can call me up and ask me. Assumptions only do what only assumptions can do, as you probably well know...

Secret Window

So, adding to my list of great things, I forgot that I also saw Secret Window this weekend. It was great. Johnny Depp is the perfect blend of crazyman and everyman. I liked the twist, it wasn't too unrealistic, yet still surprising. I watched it under very stormy skies, with dark rain pounding against my windows. Perfect.

Resolutions

So I'm noticing that I usually only blog when I'm irritated or frustrated, so my New Year's resolution is to blog more about happy things. So to kick it off here's a list of great things in my life:

1. I look great today. Good hair, cute outfit, good skin day, new shoes. If you want, call me and I'll come drive by your house so you can check me out.

2. KFH

3. Work - not normally super great, but pretty good this week. And you know, getting paid is key.

4. My friend's blogs are interesting.
