Earth Shattering News - not really

It’s a good day. After a meeting this morning I was pulled aside by the president of the company. There was a solemn walk to his office and the first time he ever closed the door. He wanted to share that he and several of the other head honchos at the company had been talking and sharing notes about me and all agreed that they liked my work. I was doing a good job! Good to hear considering I still feel like I’m playing catch-up on so many levels. I'm still on a little high. Funny how the little things make a world of difference.

And then I’m curiously excited about my plans for Friday night. I have plans every night this week which is fun and rough at the same time. Friday I’m getting together with an old high school mate. He was one of the cool guys and I realize I can’t help but revert back to my youth and who I was back then, at least part of me. It’s like the current me is trying to make room for the old version of me that’s resurfaced - the shy, introverted, nerd. It’s one of those strange morphing things you see in the movies. Anyways I’m really looking forward to the night - we were both engineers back in the day and similar sense of humor and actually, thinking back I probably had a crush on him in school along with all the other girls (he’s not too shabby on the eyes). That would explain alot now that I think of it. Who knew blogging helped you figure these things out!

In response to these turns of events the earth literally shook this afternoon in excitement. We felt the earthquake that was down in Virginia! Interesting timing.

Special shout out to my more southern friends Emily, Joanne and Karin. I hope you and you're loved ones are safe and sound and the earthquake didn't cause too much damage.

Thanks! We're totally fine. It was my first earthquake, so it was a little bit cool.

Good to hear! Thanks for posting. As long as everyone is safe and no major damage done, earthquakes are kind of fun. It's a strange feeling. Suprisingly my first and biggest earthquake was in upstate NY. And I lived in CA for 4 years!
