Scratch That...

So, I've had a bit more time to get to know my boss the whole two weeks she's been here. Let me say that she's kind of a freak. Sorry for saying that, but I'm getting tired of her unrelenting persistence to be so damn personal with everyone. And its like she wants *dirt* on everyone in the department. What gave her the idea I'm some sort of gossiper, I have no idea. I guess since I was the most accepting of her at first, she's totally latched on. But what's annoying is she wants to get to know everyone right now, right now, right now. It's like, geez... be patient!!! It's not like relationships are bonded over night. And for me, it takes quite awhile to get to know someone and to let them "in" so to speak. I usually have a pretty high wall I put up before I let anyone in. I have my exceptions, but, not this time.

Tomorrow I have a *one on one* with her. It's an "off site" working lunch, which I'm irritated about. I'm going to suggest Quizno's cuz at least I can get a salad there. But anyway, I'm terrified of the questions she's going to ask me. I've heard through the grapevine of some questions she's previously asked of people, like, "Does so and so have a degree?" My response would be, "Well fuck if I know... why don't you ask them??" I think she thinks we are all like best friends or something and hang out after work. Umm... that's a negative, ghost rider. My coworkers are just that - my coworkers! Some, I would hang out with in a heartbeat, we just haven't. Her on the other hand, I'm not so sure of. I was willing to give her a chance. Now that I have... yipe!

And, school is going to be the death of me. I love the idea of an MBA, but GAW, it's so hard!!! I felt like I turned in the most under-par assignments this weekend. I just didn't have the time or energy. Hopefully I'm over the hump. At least those are out of the way. The *big* projects now are the actual papers! They are due in a month, so I better get crackin'.

This weekend the father-in-law is coming to town. I'm excited cuz he's a LOT of fun. I don't know if many people like their in-law's. My mother-in-law is something else. She has her moments of crazy, but is a genuinely sweet person. And my father-in-law is just awesome. And I love his girlfriend. I hope this one sticks!!! I need to make sure I get my homework done this WEEK so I can actually enjoy my weekend. I want to try to go to the gym this week to. I need a good 2 weeks of straight cardio.....

Well, the final news of the day is my parents adopted the SWEETEST kitten. Supposedly, she's half Siamese. She's only 6 weeks old and has adorable blue eyes, but you can't see it in this photo. I think the jury is still out on her name, but so far, my Mom has a real like for the name"Lexi." :)

Well, I have some laundry and a full glass of red wine to finish. Ciao! :)
