Yep, I’m offically one of those “dropped off the face of the internet” bloggers. Got my badge in the mail yesterday – it’s shiny! Thanks internet!

Life has been quite the ride for this girl as of late – but I think everyone can say that these days…

I’m assuming one of these days I’ll wake up and POW! the inspiration to get my electronic act together will return and I’ll sit at my keyboard every day blogging away. But for now it’s gonna be like getting into a cold pool, stick the big toe in, pull it out and then take forever to just walk into the water.

This month I’ve turned 25 years old – or young – whatever floats your boat. And with this change comes many more – mostly for the good. If I didn’t have to get my ass to work I’d sit here and fill whoever still reads this thing in on all the gory details – but I digress.

So, all that said hello to the world -I’m still here and kickin’ – and I hope you have a lovely day

The road to hell is paved with the best of intentions to post more…

So, nothing really new around here. Yep, still alive so that’s a good thing.

What’s new with you?

Anyone who knows me in “real life” knows that I’m a huge stickler for organization. Nothing turns me on more than seeing a room, shelf or closet that’s tidy and symetric. One of my favorite things is when someone who is drowning in clutter asks me to come over and help them get organized. Weird? I know.

I feel more at peace in a place where I know I can find what I’m looking for and my eyes aren’t going bonkers trying to take in my surroundings. I know lots of people love “orgainzed chaos” and can function well in that kind of enviroment…but I can’t. This side of my personality is most apparent at my job. Among other things my position requires me to process large amounts of data and consolodate it into simple and easy to understand reports and graphs as well as accounts payable duties for the entire department.

I deal with A LOT of paper every day. It’s only apparent how much crap crosses my desk when I take a day off because I’ll come back and the inbox is overflowing (and scary)…I think this may be a tatic by my bosses to ensure I don’t take days off *chuckle* I have multiple stacking paper sorters on the desk that will hold all invoices from their reception into the office through the entire payment process (gotta love corporate red tape) to end point of filing away in a clean and organized file drawer that comes complete with a self created self-archiving system. Yep, I’m a nerd.
(more…)

So I just hit submit on a job application and I need all the good vibes and ju-ju y’all have heading this way! I’ve been working at a company for a hair over two years as a temporary employee and finally in this god forsaken economy a job opening of my caliber (ha ha) for the company I work for has finally appeared on the boards!

The position is in another department but if I could just get in I could care less where in the place I work because when the cards are on the table — it’s a great freakin’ place to work! Most people hate their jobs/companies/bosses/whatever but I’m that rare breed that loves what I do and who I work for. The place treats it’s employees like royalty and is damn good to it’s temp workers like me. I know at the end of the day no matter how stressed I am or frustrated with issues I still have a job that lots of people would kill for in this day and age so I thank God every. single. day.

If I don’t get it that really isn’t a huge deal, don’t get me wrong I’m hungry as hell for what’s being offered but I know that I’m great where I’m at too. But send on the good luck vibes dudes!

In other news, I finally got the letter from the Rodeo Parade Committee for our first meeting…and am STOKED! I volunteer as a grand-stand Marshall for our local Rodeo Parade and it’s a blast. I can hardly wait for the meeting…but they scheduled the damn thing on Valentine’s day…wft?

This weekend is going to be great, Saturday the new boyfriend and I have a BBQ to go to. And Sunday night we are going to see Heart in concert (the tickets were my xmas gift to the new boyfriend)!

C’mon everyone sing “You’d have me down on my knees Wouldn’t you, Barracuda?”

Ok….got that out of our system *chuckle* All in all things are going good…I have zero complaints about life right now in spite of the everyday problems Life is good!
