Movin' on up!

2 min read
Well, we're finally all moved in to our new offices... Same building, new space... The first floor is still totally trashed, so we moved to the 5th floor... And I have a window! Yippee! I'm not on the side of the building that looks onto the bay, but it's a lot better than that old cubicle that felt like it was in the dungeon... I got to watch two dobermans scare the crap out of some little kids across the street (I know, I'm evil for enjoying that, but there was a fence... those kids were perfectly safe! :giggle: )... And two shirtless guys play tennis over on the air force base... Hmmm... Maybe I need to buy some binoculars... or a telescope! :D

So... Maybe I'll get a little more inspired to pick up my camera now that the work situation has gotten a bit less stressful... I mean, my new office is about the same size as the space I've been sharing with 6 other people since October! In fact... Here's a pledge... New photos this weekend... It's a long one, so I've got no excuse!

Hope you all have a wonderful Friday!

:hug:

I have office furniture! :w00t: Not quite an office yet, as we can't move in until the furniture assembly is completely completed, but soon... very soon... But oh, not soon enough... Trailer life is definitely not the life for me... I may be from Arkansas (well, halfway... the other half is purely Texan!), but I'm not trailer trash! :)

So, you may be confused... Maybe you thought Christmas-time was the most wonderful time of the year... Well, if so, you are so, so, very wrong! Baseball season is the most wonderful time of the year! Although, it does coincide pretty well with hurricane season... And I say thank goodness... Otherwise there might be nothing fun about hurricane season! :laughing: My boys (the White Sox, aka the 2005 World Champions!) haven't started off on the best foot so far, but it's a long season... They'll get better and they'll get worse, and the ups and downs are all part of the fun of it, right? (Okay, that could be interpreted in many different ways! :giggle: )

I also just found out that I'm getting a raise in July :w00t!: ... Which is great news except that I quickly realized that it won't even cover the increase in my home insurance that's coming soon... *sigh*... I guess it's still better than increased insurance cost with no raise to help out, so I'm thankful for that...

And (supposedly) we'll be moving back into our office in a few weeks and finally be out of this Hell-hole of a trailer... We'll see... We've heard this before... Several times, and it hasn't come to fruition yet... Working in a trailer isn't as bad as peeing in a trailer, though... Yes, we literally have what we've affectionately dubbed The Potty Trailer sitting in the parking lot... You simply haven't lived until you've had to pee in a tiny cubicle in a relatively open trailer, while being afraid that it's going to roll down the parking lot into the bay, and while trying to keep the bottom of your pants from touching the floor that seems to be constantly wet from a leak... We don't even ask where the leak is, b/c we really don't want to know! And then we have to come back to our work trailer and spray the bottoms of our shoes with Lysol so they won't smell like the Potty Trailer! It's fun! fun! fun!

And now... Off to the Potty Trailer! I've put it off about as long as I can... :o

So, it's a new year... I've just ordered a new computer and a new monitor... I have an interview for a new job in a new city on Friday... So hopefully I'll have a new start in a new home soon... And if I can sell my current home for enough, I'll get a new car too! :w00t:

Things are starting to look up! 'Bout time too! It's probably a trick & some terrible luck is waiting just over the horizon... So, if one of my flights this weekend crashes, I can't say I wasn't warned! :laughing:

These links are from our local newspaper's web site... The first shows before and after Katrina photos of local landmarks, homes and churches... It's one of the best ways to understand the devastation without being here... The second is an editorial that expresses the feelings of every Mississippian I know... Just thought they might be interesting to some of you...
