One Crazy Week!

Time: 10:45pm
Mood: Lazy..
Song of the moment: Incubus - Anna Molly

It has been one crazy and eventful week. Definitely on the up-side though! I went down to Detroit on Tuesday night for a Wednesday morning lab tour. I had the luck of the draw because Jimmy managed to get the day off (a last minute deal! His boss is awesome!) so he came with me! And thank God he did! Part of the highway was closed so we ended up being adventurous and took farm roads between Cambridge and Woodstock.

While down there, I did a bit of shopping and I FINALLY bought myself a Coach purse! It was definitely well deserved! It's beautiful! But I admit... I felt a little guilty...









Friday rolls along and I had my yearly work review with my boss. I was a little nervous because I've never been reviewed like that before -> I was planning to ask for a raise, and by how my company has been doing lately, it didn't look like they were going to be giving out raises. My review went well and I found out my boss was really impressed with me. *whew* I'm so glad! I knew my boss really liked me, but to know that my work ethic is noticeable, it's a great feeling. So I got the raise I was looking for (actually they offered me more than what I was going to ask.. so that's a big plus!). Now I don't feel so guilty for buying that purse! haha!

Yesterday was my company's x'mas party. My co-workers and I had our table all planned out. Bad luck for me, I arrived slightly later than the other guests, and someone took my seat. One of my co-workers actually left that table after awhile because according to him, the person that replaced me was "damn annoying". LoL. It was alright though.. I sat at a table with a bunch of Filippino ppl and they were so funny! Our table wasn't full, but there was this one guy at our table that kept insisting to the servers that someone was sitting in the empty seats, all so he can get extra food! LoL! I later moved to another table with the lab techs I work closely with. All in all it was a fun evening!

Which brings me to today. What did I do today? Absolutely nothing! Jimmy and I were supposed to get our asses into gear and play squash, but that didn't happen. And it was all my fault. Damn me and my lazy ass! But tomorrow! Gym tomorrow.. for sure...!!

**house update**
We've got a second floor... and a partial roof!!! Yippee!!
