Oh that geriatric feeling...

So I had the day off (and have Monday off too for a mini-vacay) and I went to the PT place to pick up my orthotics today. Hence the title of my post - nothing will make you feel older than being faced with the limitations of your body full in the face. Feeling older. I went and did some shopping for sensible shoes that work with my orthotics. Those wide shoes that are good for your feet and walking. Not nice shoes that make your pedicured toes look nice -- sensible shoes! Gah. I got a set of keen's that had a slight hipster look to them but returned them later as they slipped off my feet and they were not right. I did go to the athletic shoe place and got fitted for a good pair of walking shoes and those actually will work.

Old, I am old. (moany, groan, creaky, whine)

I did have a nice lunch with my work pal S*** who called and did my food shopping.

I have a bit of career news too...I did not get that job I interviewed for but in letting me know that, they let me know that they had another position that they would like me to apply for and that they would contact me with the job number. I thought that unlikely but said well, thems the breaks. Well, they did contact me with the job number and the position is a HIGHER LEVEL one than the other one. Seems they think I am more qualified than I thought. It pays more moolah and is a way better job. Things are looking up. I doubt that my current department will be able to meet or counter this offer though I will give them the chance to.

Neat, really neat. Super excited. Happy weekend to all and heading out to see the movie Horrible Bosses tonight. I need to laugh.

Comment with your latest. I promise to reply to comments tomorrow.

Cheers.
