1. This is a photo from last weekend of myself and my 'tall-blond-viking-bombshell' friend Becca, on our way to the S.A.I.T reunion. We've been pals for 9 years now. Her friendship is the best thing that came out of my time at S.A.I.T. , that's for sure.
Becca & I with our friend Kelly Belly, at the reunion.
2. Yesterday, everyone in my Pod at work (pod is what we call our 'cluster' of cubicles) wore blue, by total fluke. When you have an office job, you tend to find things like this entertaining. (Editors note: John, the tall man in the middle, is not developmentally challenged. He's making that face on purpose. Also, after the photo was taken I kicked myself for not taking off my black cardigan first - stands out like a sore thumb and distracts from all the blue!).
3. Finished the Jodi Picoult book 'Mercy'. It was meh. Wouldn't recommend it. Now I'm on an official Jodi break, and am reading a recommend from my mom called 'Lullabies for Little Criminals'. So far, it's great. Keri B - I will let you know if I still like it when I'm done, and maybe you can 'download' it to your fancy dancy e-book thingy.
4. Warren and I are taking the week of May 18th off, to hopefully work on the bathroom renos and other house 'nesting' type things we want to get accomplished. We may even go on a mini road trip with the dogs. I mentioned to Warren my hesitations about a 2-dog road trip, because Porter has anxiety issues and I know that a road trip with him will be less-than-relaxing. But Warren said he'd rather be on a road trip, with restrictions on what types of things we can do, than be stuck at home the entire time. Hopefully this is a sign that we'll be willing to travel with baby, knowing that it will be 'hard'.
5. My mat leave posting is up now. Over the next month we'll be reviewing resumes and then setting up interviews. Tick-tock-tick-tock.

The mat leave job post. That's a weird one isn't it? On the one hand, you can't wait to get out of there, but on the other hand you can't help but be curious as to who will take your place while you're gone...the good news is that the last few weeks you are "working", the new person gets to do everything and you can just put your feet up and relax ;-)
Hey, maybe I should apply for your job??? lol
Just kidding, I'm sure I am no longer qualified.
Enjoy your time off!
