Shamey that's FAB news! Congrats. Now I feel merry and bright, too
Our company will have layoffs in January. Bah humbug. Sucky time of year with holiday bills rolling in... (not that it's ever a good time of year). I don't know how they expect to manage business with fewer people. We're already working 24/7. I've been told my department won't be impacted, but, it still is just awful when it happens.
I need to step up my retirement savings, so I can get the heck out of dodge as soon as I can!
On a brighter note, I had to joy of joining two charming gentlemen last night to see Barbara Cook at Feinstein's. Sublime. Wonderful. And we drank pink champagne.

It feels like the stars aligned on this one. As Mama Shamey said, let's hope I'm as happy about it once I start! LOL!
BB, you're always welcome!
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson
Think of it as a Christmas gift from the cosmos. It might be a good fit, or it might need to be exchanged, but a gift is a gift! I have high hopes for this one!
LS, I have a great feeling about it. You're going to be very happy! My poor baby on the other hand is miserable. He works with a bunch of A-holes. After the holidays he is goijg to look aggressively for a new job.

Oh no! I meant to ask him how things were going but never got the chance (and I would have had to put down the chips and dip). I'm so sorry to hear that. Time to move on!
Moony, the poor guy is sitting outside the CEO's office and the conference room. The rest of his team is on the other side of the office. He really has no one to talk to. While he's trying to work people are exiting the conference room conversing loudly and distracting him. He has this psychotic colleague who constantly talks down to him. Telling him he shouldn't be doing things that his boss asked him to do. It realy sounds like a horrible work place. One colleague told him that when she started working there she tried having a get together after work at a local pub. The first time no one showed up and the second time one person showed up. She gave up on trying. BTW if you put the bowls down I'm sure a booby trap like in the Idiana Jones series would have hit us all. I was in no position of running that night, so thanks for not letting go.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Attend the tale of Bovine Boy
His party threads we all enjoy

He doesn't eat beef - but cows skating? - oh please!!!
With cocoa!?!
And lemonade!?!

But, but, but, I gave you chips. And dip. And cheese. And champagne.
And chocolate.
How can you hate me just because my type A husband sent out the Christmas cards already. (I guess it won't further my cause if I tell you we had them done over Thanksgiving weekend, will it?)
