You were prepared...

I haven't updated in close to a week! Gosh, what a slacker. Being busy and hopelessly in love really keeps you from blogging... too much sex I think.

So, since my untimely exile from Best Friend Island, I've kept myself quite occupied. Friday, I interviewed for a promotion within my esteemed department, and felt indifferent whether my hard work would be rewarded with a small hike in pay and a HUGE bump up in responsibility. I showed up, letter of interest & resume in hand, wearing my nice slacks and a cute office-girl worthy shirt, and to finish off the ensemble my DKNY black heels. Killer. I managed to talk, be witty and completely pit out my shirt in an hours time. Talk about nerves...

Friday night, I pulled myself together and took my super cool girl out to meet my only other real lesbian couple, J & M, are tons of laid back fun. We shared a bowl of kim-chee (a Sonya's specialty) and super strong gin & tonics (w/ extra lime please...) and managed to get sloshed and slap-happy all before midnight. Go team drunkard! The next morning, hangover clad, J managed to slink off to work, and I stayed home with the pups nursing as much water and IBprofen as my body could handle. Saturday night I was lucky enough of accompany the previously mentioned super cool girl to a Birthday BBQ at her friends' house. 3 beers, a handful of appetizers and 1 Irish Car Bomb later, I was golden and in with the in crowd. After changing clothes, and 1 more beer we met the birthday girl and friends at a Bob Schneider concert at the Crocodile Cafe. Not my favorite venue, but the show was unreal. Bob was a totally rad pot smokin' hippie singin' about God on Cocaine and during one song we had to say "Arrrrrgggghhh", hmmm something about pirates I guess! Good music + Good friends + Too many Stella Artois = A couple of drunks stumbling home, and peeing next to a parked Jeep. (PS. Friends... that was not me you saw peeing on a Jeep's bumper!)

Sunday, my younger sisters came out for a long overdue visit, and I spent the day with them and J shopping, and walking around town. After they left I was treated to a back rub and my hair petted until it was time to adjourn to bed in my little bungalow of a loft. And yes... it was ANOTHER late night. I LOVE my life.

This morning I came into the FAB news that I did, in fact, get the promotion I interviewed for, and will soon be taking on a National desk w/ Lead responsibilities. I couldn't be happier with my life right now...

PS. I'm so happy I can share this all with you.

TONIGHT: NO GYM, long walk with the pups, and a quiet night.
