I close my eyes, oh God I think I'm falling

To begin, my new favorite blog is http://dmr.blogs.friendster.com/my_blog/. I think what got me hooked are the Madonna references. And Luv went through a Wendy's drive-through too. I hate to admit it but I have been through a Burger King and Taco Bell drive-through WITHIN THE LAST 24 HOURS. I felt that at least another kindred soul (or fast-food glutton) was going to have to run extra miles also to make up for the trash that has been willfully consumed. God bless your jolly soul sir, and my running shoes.

Today I had my monthly review here at work. I fell under the benchmark. I didn't reach the numbers required. I AM NOT MEETING EXPECTATIONS. But there isn't a soul in management that knows that. I got a toothy smile, a pat on the back, and the encouraging words to "Keep up the good work." And management right now doesn't care to learn what I do exactly. If everyone worked where I did, the world would be a much happier place. Granted nothing would get done, but we'd all be at happy hour every Friday and that, dear friends, is happiness.

My sinus issue is finally clearing up. But I have a Dr's appointment tomorrow. Good 'ol Ruthy took my call at the Dr's office. I imagined a middle aged woman, somewhat robust who probably brought in cookies on Mondays and jelly rolls on Wednesdays. She was surprised when I told her that Dr. Wilson was the winner of my eenie-meenie-miney-moe strategy of choosing a dr. Course I didn't expect her to grunt in approval, and then proceed to tell me just how much everyone likes him and that most of their clients are referrals from other patients, as if my serendipity was an act of God's will leading me to the truth in the name of deity amen. But then who am I to judge? Ruthy just might know something I'm going to find out tomorrow morning at 9:45 sharp.

I'll be sure to wear clean underwear.

And socks.

Just in case.
