Random Thoughts on Friday

I just had lunch with a long-time friend, C. She's so cute. And I don't just say that because people used to say we looked alike. We went to law school together (the secret is out - I have revealed what I do for a living, but I think 99% of my readers know me personally anyway), and we used to hang out constantly. Then we had to become adults and get jobs. Things got busy, yadda, yadda, yadda. Her building is near mine, so sometimes we meet for lunch, but not as much as we should. C is one of those friends that is so easy to talk to, that you pick back up where you left off as if no time had gone by. And she's always dressed well. She used to help me pick out cute outfits for dates with Big D. It was great seeing her... I vow to call her more often.

I'm taking Dooce's advice about not blogging about work, but oh man, some shit hit the fan yesterday. A co-worker of mine did something very mean. He's just not a nice person. If only I believed in voodoo dolls...

No new nibbles on the job front. I'm supposed to call two contacts next week to set up interviews. Gosh, I hope this works out. At lunch, C and I were talking about how bad the job market is right now. Ugh.

Our friends M&S left today for a 10 day trip to Sweden. So jealous. Maybe they'll run into Inga...

"You will help me get my rucksack down for the Swedish meatballs?"


Tomorrow, Big D's mom is coming over to watch The Monster while we try to make our house look like someone actually lives there. Pictures are going up, boxes are being unpacked, and the garage is being organized. With any luck, I'll get some laundry done too... it's been three weeks since I've done mine. Let's just say this pair of undies isn't exactly my most comfortable. :-)
