I absolutely LOVE Sundays....so full of promise. And by "promise", I mean, "lounging around on the couch, taking a nap, watching movies, and havin' a snack."
I absolutely HATE Sunday nights. When 6:00 pm approaches, it's the promise of another work week, of having to go to sleep at a normal person's hour (which is impossible because of the aforementioned nap and all-out lounging and lazing), and of saying "sayonara, bitches" to another weekend. *sigh* I'm such a whiner.
Whatever.
And what a fun weekend it was, in spite of having to sneak in several hours of work on Saturday...hanging out with Not New Guy on Friday night at my house, and last night it was dinner at his house with a couple of his friends (and now, happily, my friends as well). The three of them had been hanging out all afternoon, and as one of them so eloquently put it when I got the phone call on my way out of work: "we have been previously drinking"..... Sounded good to me, and I did my very best to catch up. Not New Guy made an incredible dinner on the fly, after much pressing and prodding by the rest of us, and a lovely drunken time was had by all. I have to think of some fake blog names for New Married Couple Friends, because New Wife Friend and I have decided to have high tea at this new hoity toity high tea place and then blog about it....New Wife Friend is very excited about being Guest Blogger. (Or she will be, when I remind her of how excited she is to be Guest Blogger on the High Tea Review Blog.)
In other news, I'm getting another new MIT (manager in training) the week of February 2nd. I haven't had one since October, because THAT m'fr was a handful. I just now signed off on him and cut him loose...." na na na na, na na na na, hey heyyyy...goodbye...".....and looking forward to finding out about this new person. She is from Bozeman, Montana....Bozeman, Motherfucking Montana! Which is exciting for me, because in about a month, I get to fly out and spend a week at HER store. I've never been west of Tulsa, (shut up, Efen), so it should be interesting! And if it all works out, when I'm finished in Bozeman, I'm off to McConnell Air Force Base in Kansas for another MIT. (We have some locations on Military Bases in the US and Puerto Rico.) Never been on a military base either. (Shut up, Efen.) This week, my company acquired another, smaller eyeglass chain with 64 units in Florida, Texas, Arizona, and the like...which, I hope, means that I'll get to do more training and a bit more traveling. It's interesting, it gets me out of my store for a change of scenery, and gets me home on the weekend, for hopefully more like the one I've just had. :)
The bad news? My new promotion at work is going to require a face-to-face meeting with the Vice President of Operations. *sighhhhhh*....really? Do I have to? Can't we just do this thing over the phone? Y'all are just going to have to wish me luck on that one, because I'm totally out of other people's tranquilizers.
Have a great week everyone...I know I've been lax on my commenting as of late, but I'll blame that on my precarious internet connection. And my apathetic laziness. I'm still lurking though :)
(Oh, hey, Not New Guy....wtg.)

11 Ramble on, y'all....:
I have a friend who lives in Bozeman! I'd tell you to look for him but he's trouble!
Glad to know you had a most enjoyable wknd! I'll be happy to send you more tranquilizer for the meeting w/the Veep if needed! I'm here for ya!!;) BTW - happy to know you're still lurkin' & shit... :)-
Just have a couple of glasses of red wine before the meeting and you'll be just fine.
And I advise you to drink heavily when you visit Bozeman. I'm sure it's a much more fun town if you're drunk. haha ;-)
Remember, a cocktail or two is a girl's best friend for meeting higher ups - but no more than 2! ;-) Congrats on all the good news.
Ohhhh, I wanna go to the military base with you....hot guys in uniform, short military high and tight hair cuts, beautifully tight asses in camo (*drooling*)......
I have tranquilzers for ya sweetie !!! Good luck though, YUCK.
Where to start?? Hmmm...."Tulsa"...well, since it seems that everyone AND their brother knows about your 'page' (sheesh) I'll refrain from posting some really, really funny shit ;)
Bozeman, huh? Actually, thats pretty cool. (going to lose you here;)...Thats where Red Cloud and his Lakota Sioux roamed...yeah, I know some shit ;)
Uh...I know where you can get some really HOT camo heels ;)
BTW....2 words for your interview...'Low-Cut'....got it? :)
Bozeman is a great town, but it's not exactly 'hoppin', KWIM? Go to The Crystal Bar - you will love it. Leaf and Bean is good for coffee & stuff, too. Did you say you have stores in TX now...you know if you come to Houston I will ditch the fam & you, me, Momma & Gator Girl will all go out for some fun. Sound good? :)
Don't worry about the interview I'm sure you will dazzle him/her with you knowledge and mad skills. Then again it might not be a bad idea to have something low cut handy too :)
You don't need booze or meds.... just be yourself and you will dazzle. THEN hit the booze and meds!
As 6 PM on Sunday approaches, my inner entrepreneur rises trying to figure out what the hell I can do to keep my from having to go to work anymore. By Friday, I have forgotten all my good ideas for another weekend.
Paige: Soooo don't need any trouble in Bozeman...but thanks for the offer ;)
TGG: LOL...yeah, if y'all could just sent me all your valiums and shit, that'd be great!
Jay: I knew I could count on you for the good advice.
ETW: Thanks! I'll write on my palm "no more than 2", just to be sure.
The Girl: LOL...I'm not trying to get kicked OFF the military base! :) But you'll be the first one I'll call if I swing a "guest pass"
Efen: I wonder if our lurker from Tulsa will comment? Hmmm? Pretty please? Oh, and...roger that on that other thing ;)
GiGi: Thanks for the intel...and you know I'm dying for blogger girl getaway with my TX buds :)
Ron: Good to know that you concur with Efen on the low-cut thing.
J-Fab: Party on Concourse C in the ATL!
Trooper: Let me know if you need a manager. But I make my own hours. Deal?
