Day Six - I Made it Through the Rain

Ha! To all you naysayers! Ha!!!! I made it through the weekend (which, remarkably, was rain-free - the first time in a long time) and posted every day! Only 24 more days to go.... I'm now thinking that the days that I am at work will actually be a big challenge. I share an office space with my boss - at least, I think she's my boss, but I think she's kind of everyone's boss because she's been here since the company started almost 20 years ago.

Anyway, I don't like to get caught goofing around. I don't think I do any more goofing than anyone else here - everyone is always checking their personal e-mail and the Art Director had his own "Virtual Baseball Team" that he was constantly checking during the day. So I don't feel too too bad, but I still like to appear a diligent employee. Plus, my back is kind of to the door, so people can check out what I'm doing. Everyone here has a desk that faces the wall. I think that is just the stupidest thing. I'm a so-so believer in Feng Shui - more a believer in "go with the flow of the space, don't leave clutter around, don't have your back to the door" stuff. I think it makes a company profitable or a house warm and inviting because people will be naturally drawn to it. I think that's what Feng Shui is all about - drawing people and prosperity to your place, and that's what I like to believe in. G and I have a joke about the mobster's seat when you're out to dinner - the seat that can see what's going in the entire room, no backs to doors or windows (for fear of getting picked off). Where was I? I can't even remember. But backs to doors - no good. Everyone can watch you downloading your porn. Really not a good thing.

Wow. My boss, the Editorial Director, and the Art Director just went out to lunch. I feel kind of left out. For some reason I always feel like there's some secrets flying around here, this is one of those times.

And, aside from staying with the postings, the other good news is that my dog is reacting well to the pain meds we have her back on. So much so, in fact, that yesterday she was back to putting her frisbee in the middle of the leaf pile that G was raking, in the hopes tha the would throw it for her. I am so happy about that, I can't even tell you.

Time for me to go get my tiny yogurt and hope that the test kitchen has some lunch, otherwise, I'm having Cheerios for my mid-day repast. Go, me!
