Still ticking…I think
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Hai, internets!! I’m still here, although I’m waaaaay behind on reading for fun. And by reading I mean all values of reading including LJ, blogs, new books, etc.

Work has entered an extremely crazy, yet quite challenging (in a good way) period, requiring me to put in some pretty long days. It’s definitely all for the better as we’ve combined 4 teams into 2 and I (along with the other long-term project manager) have been promoted to Director. We’ve hired a new project manager to be on my team, so once she starts and gets up to speed, things should slow down to normal for me. In the meantime, I’m juggling twice the client load. There is a light at the end of this tunnel, and I can assure you, it’s not a train. ::g::

Got hooked on Grey’s Anatomy sometime over the last few weeks and have, as of last night, watched through the end of season 4. (yay for iTunes and DVDs). It’s made up for not having any new TV. At least SGA will start back up in July. :)

Looking forward to seeing a bunch of you all at Con.txt in a few weeks. It will be the only con I attend this summer, until I go to Bouchercon in the fall. (World Mystery Con). I was hoping to do World Fantasy again, but alas, it’s in Calgary this year and I don’t think I can do two trips to Western Canada in 2 months. (My Vancouver trip is the first week of September).

Spent Memorial Day weekend just lazing about and watching Grey’s Anatomy. Had plans for Sunday, but alas, the sinus headache won, so I ended up just napping a lot. Hope everyone had a fabulous holiday weekend (for those that observe it) and I hope to get caught up on LJ at some point in the near future. :)

    What Selkie said!

    Promotions are a nice way of saying “we value you.” We can hope there was a corresponding bump in the paycheck too. :D
