Breakfast at work
Getting to work by 7:30 a.m. wasn't so bad considering it's my second to last day before vacation. Actually I'm getting used to waking up at least 5:30 one day a week so I can play catch up at work before my editor comes and sees that pile of work I should have done the... Continue Reading →
Changes a coming soon
I feel like changes will happen soon and I fear it. At the same time I'm also looking forward to it and will jump into it with my eyes wide open. Sleeping has been hard to do lately and I find myself thinking about my future a lot. But I have to face one thing... Continue Reading →
I love room service
I normally don't order room service because of the steep fees associated with it but it was included in my hotel stay during a recent trip to Los Angeles.

Sunday spree
Gas prices have been incredible. To fill my 15 gallon tank, I've been spending about $30 plus. It's not so bad that I need to fill my tank about every two weeks if I don't do any heavy driving. It's one advantage of living about 2 miles away from work and being so close to... Continue Reading →

Still haven't completed the section and the person covering for the editor will be in at 9 a.m. to edit the pages.... Continue Reading →
A little time for myself
I hope this weekend brings a little time for myself. The past two weeks has been filled with overtime (seven hours plus), little sleep and stress. The extra money from overtime is great but after five hours, I'm wishing I had the day off. Further I think the tendonitis in my wrists are coming back... Continue Reading →
I could eat this three times a day
Got upset at my roommate for eating the last one this morning as I rushed off to work at the wee hour of 8 a.m. As penance, two were returned to me and I shared one with a coworker who is now addicted. The texture is like whipped cream but imagine chocolate flavored whipped cream...
