Winds of Change

Yay. I love good days! And you definitely deserve one. ;-)

And your night last night sounds awesome start to finish. I would have cried too! How proud you must be.

My day today was mixed. It was pretty good mostly (even my classes!), then at 2:15 when I was doing all my logging off, the principal came to see me about an NHS issue and he f--ed up my mood. When I got in the house I started strobing: my first migraine in a while. I took my meds immediately though, so I'm hoping it doesn't ruin my night.

My plan was to come home and have a lemon drop (in progress) and some shrimp cocktail (thawing), then decide what comes next. Mussels at my local place? A 10 dollar steak dinner at Outback? A free app with any drink purchase at TGIFriday's (with my coupon)? A trip to the grocery store for prosciutto and good Parmesan so I can recreate my Italian arugula and prosciutto pizza? Well, that one is out. There's no way I'm making that tonight. I can't concentrate long enough to get my dough cracker thin. I'm fried. So it's down to the three restaurant choices. Chances are I'll end up at Outback...I love my girls there--and we had some good laughs when W and I were in last weekend. I guess maybe that means that I'm looking for a little company with my dinner, and I know I'll have some there. Looks like I've made up my mind.

W was moved on to the second round of interviews on the spot, so that rocks. Today I was talking to the secretaries in the office, who are all so supportive, and as I told them and they waved crossed fingers in the air, I got chills. Not for the first time I might add. I even said to W this morning, I know you aren't all new age and spiritual like me, but please, take a minute today and picture yourself walking to work. And say out loud, at least once today, "I love my new job at Dana Farber." And--get this--he got on board!...I feel the winds of change...

Talk to you soon.
