I have a moment so...
Aug. 21st, 2010 01:10 pmI thought I would post. Wow. A moment to post. Heh.
So this week it was an interesting week at work. It was the week where I saved everyone's *ss. I kid you not. People got in trouble and I had to bail them out. Room nightmares, facilities people being real sticky wickets, events almost collapsing for other departments. I had to use highly tuned negotiating skills to pull other departments in my division out of the doo doo. And I did it. I really did. *gold star on my forehead* And what did I get for my efforts? A sandwich and a cookie...*giggles* Hey...I did not have to buy lunch that day. That is something. This week my stream team went forward without tech support and we did great. Me and A***, my pal from the Communications and Events Office have decided that we no longer need tech support for our webcasts and it is more fun without them. Plus we got the set up done faster and had more time to drink our coffee before the meeting started --BONUS. All in all a successful week but very stressful. I have Monday off. I so happy about that.
What else? I think I will bullet:
-I got a leather chair for 25.00 on craigslist. It is worth 1000.00 according to consignment guy. I am stoked about that. I pick it up tomorrow. Best described as a therapists chair and super comfy. Woot.
-I went to a really cool vegan restaurant last night in Berkeley (north) called Cafe Gratitude. The food was super good, great sauces and all healthy and stuff. The veggies were delish and one of the best caesar salads I have ever had. I bought this cool green bowl (fiesta ware style) for my morning oatmeal. Their tag line is "What are you grateful for?" and the servers ask you that when they take your order. You seriously have to answer the question. Kind of a cool, oombie goombie place.
That is all I have here. I have been having fun exploring my hard drive for images and putting together a fall line up of graphics and I might go out for lunch today. I am chilling.
I hope you are having a good weekend. Cheers to all and what are YOU grateful for? Comments on that are welcome.
