Sorry I haven't updated, but either I've been on an on-line crossword binge, or burried in Excel spreadsheets.
I never really got to be the new girl. I started the job and jumped right in.
Today my boss is traveling and I don't have a bunch of pressing items, so I've been dicking around on the internet.
The latest big deal in my life is my 30th High School Reunion. Our school was small, fewer than 100 in my graduating class, so they're combining classes to make enough to actually throw a party.
I'm really looking forward to seeing old friends from the past. And also people I know and keep in touch with.
At first we were going to make a big event of it. My sister will come out with us and stay with some family friends. James and I are going to stay at the hotel, even though it is out where Jesus left his sandals, because James wants the option of returning to the room if he gets bored or feels excluded. Fair enough. I was thinking of going to LA to see The Price is Right, or driving up to Sedona, or the Grand Canyon or something to make it worth the hassle of flying across the country. But in the end, who really wants to be in Arizona in August? Now it's just a long weekend.
We're going to my cousin's wedding in NJ in June. We'll be spending as much of our time in NY as we can. I sure hope there aren't a bunch of wedding events, Rehearsal Dinner (where out of towners are fed rubber chicken) or after event brunches. I'm in it for one afternoon/evening the rest of the time I want to be in NY.
Most of my conversation with my family is about clothing. What we have, what we need to buy, what's appropriate. At this moment in time I'll be wearing a dress I've had for 5 years. I wear it on cruises, so it must be okay.
That's the problem with a vacation, it's more fun to plan, the realities are exhausting, uncomfortable and smell weird.
