Hi Gals!
Holy cow! Has it *really* been over 2 weeks since I last left my mark here?!? Sorry about that- it's been crazy at work and then we were on vacation the week before last.....kept meaning to get in, but things kept getting in the way- I'm sure ya'll know how that goes. The vacation was great (but short!) and I'm back to my cell at work. To which- when I came back and went to my desk, several things were amiss. All in a matter of seconds, I noticed that my phone had the new AU's name displayed and Samantha's stuff was on the next desk over....I *FINALLY* GOT MOVED TO ANOTHER DESK!!! **HAPPY DANCE FOR ME!!!** Ya'll have *no* idea how much better it is for me now. I was *so* excited that I was pretty well stunned the whole day. It's so quiet, and I'm faaaaar away from "you-know-who"- I can't even possibly begin to describe. It's like being in a dreamworld. (And, yes, I really probably need a life!). I've already set up my home there, and it's just wonderful. I got to catch Rick a couple of times here & there the last week or so. I don't know if he's already left Baghdad though; Steve Harrigan & David Lee Miller have been reporting from there this weekend. Guess we'll have to see! UPDATE: Rick was on at the beginning of Greta's show last night- complete with black leather jacket..... Hey- here's something to ponder- I see that in the Fox Fan section of the FNC site that they have new wallpaper.....but nothing with the MALE reporters. I think it's time to email some suggestions..... Check this out- all of us in underwriting have to get broker/agent licenses! This involves an inch-thick book, six 8 hour days of training and money to pay for the test & license (all to be pd by the company- or at least it better be!). It's kinda exciting though. The only thing I've been licensed to do is drive! ;-)
Have ya'll seen Dennis Miller's show on CNBC? We watched it here & there one night last week. It was OK- but I think his short commentaries on Friday's H & C show last year were better.
Jayel- My office truly *is* like a sitcom.....some of the things that go on there are unreal. I laugh even more about it now since I've been moved though! :-) God only knows what we'll do about the 2004 election- I think we'll sit tight and see what happens in the next few months. I agree- Bush is the lesser of two evils.
Teri- Got your care package - thanks!! Hope the new washing machine is working great! I know, I know.....nothing new at my site yet- one of these days!
Jayel- I love that kind of weather too- the thunder, lightning, heavy rain- but I agree- not TOO severe! Just something to add a little excitement. I rarely hear thunder here in the Bay Area- I miss (some of) those AZ summer 'monsoon' storms that bring all that good stuff. Yep- I've about had enough with all the election coverage. I kind of tune it out right now; I'm sure as it gets closer I'll pay more attention. It's strange, in a way- unless something happens (explosions and such) in Iraq, we don't see much about it. Or maybe it's just the times I'm watching Fox.....Anyway- it *is* funny to watch the candidates turn their attention away from Bush to pick on each other. I missed Rick on the 23rd- we were in Oregon, stuck with CNN. Besides, I probably shouldn't go on vacation to watch TV- even if it's Fox. ;-p
Jan- Don't say things like that (Rick going to another channel)! Hehehe- you'll scare us! I hear ya- we need some juicy (or at least *new*) stories with some Fox hotties covering them. I had a lot of fun withe the questionnaire.
Sherry- Hope you're feeling better (which, considering your sick post was back in January and it's now February, I assume you are). It is so hard this time around to get that last 10 lbs off; I keep giving in to temptation. I'm back on track now though. Thanks for the Keen Eddie update- we've been catching it here & there on Bravo in the last couple of weeks.
Ellen- Missed Rick reporting the weather back in January too :-( Ear muffs, huh? Must've looked adorable! ;-) I haven't seen Todd for awhile.....I *do* like the image you suggested of if Todd was one of the embedded journalists. Every hottie needs a skanky boonie hat! :-) He *definitely* needs the goatee back.
Melissa- Hope your internet problems are diminishing! :-)
AH- I remember seeing the Greg swimming with the sharks- but that's all I remember. I think I was frantically packing & getting things done at the time. I'm impressed, though- I would *never* do that!
OK- lunch is almost over- need to get back to work. I'm working on another trip to the PO (post office) in there today too; even if there's no mail, it's exercise. The air feels really heavy here today- it rained yesterday & today, but I've rarely had any problems with breathing. Earlier when I got back from the PO, I felt really lightheaded and almost like I couldn't breathe deeply. It's better now (post Sudafed & Albuterol), but it's just so weird. It was like it took everything out of me just to go three (short) blocks (or six round trip). Anyway, I digress.... ya'll have a great one- I hope you missing LevenGals, ShepHerders, Kellyfans, etc. are doing great and don't be strangers! (Ha! Like I'm one to talk!)
