Notice

I've been trying to give notice at work for days. The boss has been out of the office for over a week. He was finally back today and every time I tried to catch him to give notice he was gone or in a closed door meeting, etc. I got called into another boss' office and she never seemed mad at me, but kept talking in vague generalities about being professional and on the same page as my secretary, etc. It was really strange. One thing she was talking about was my future in the firm. That made me realize that I needed to give notice immediately because I couldn't let it go any later. So I e-mailed the two bosses my resignation. I feel really strange and I'm going to have to deal with them in the morning. Also, I have a final tomorrow night that I need to study for. Unfortunately my concentration and brain cells are shot. I need a miracle!

Communism

...is alive and well in the US. The bosses just blocked access to personal e-mail sites on the work computers. Yeah.

Jingle Ball 2009

I randomly got to go to Jingle Ball yesterday. Lauren's dad got free tickets from his friend, Commander Chuck, who does traffic reports for KIIS. It was fun to go because it was something definitely out of the ordinary and I got to hang out with Lauren.

Out of the whole line-up, Taylor Swift was the only one I knew and the only one I truly enjoyed. Seriously, Lauren and I couldn't figure out why some of the "artists" are even famous or being paid to "sing." Anyway, that's a debate for another day.


Taylor Swift was adorable in a sparkly, silver, fringe dress and boots. The way she acts and moves surprised me - at the end of each song she would smile and look around like she was coming out of a trance. The hair and head flipping was pretty impressive; I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up with neck and head issues in the future. I liked that she introduced most of her songs with a story. She's a good live performer, very eloquent and I wouldn't mind seeing her perform again.

Color me purple

embrace the purple

Hmmm...this question truly intrigued me. I'd probably pick purple; it's pretty and I wear it the most out of any color. My second choice would be black. However, since black is considered the absence of color, maybe I'd get to wear purple and black for the year and get away with it. I'm glad I don't have to wear only one color for a whole year; I'd probably end up hating purple really fast!

My Thanksgiving

Over half of my family went to Arizona for Thanksgiving. I stayed back as did two of my brothers. My brothers went to their girlfriends' houses and I had Thanksgiving dinner with my grandparents. It was a nice different-quiet, no strife or stress. Abby came with me and she cheered up my grandparents. She did scare my grandma by watching her sleep; my grandma said it was scary waking up to Abby's black face. :) "But Grandma, it's such a cute face to wake up to." I ended up having the house to myself that night for the first time ever; I cranked up the music, danced around and ate popcorn. I had fun.

Big Bang Theory

...is the funniest show! If I could marry it and have its babies, I totally would. Watch it, people, watch it!

Halloween

I didn't dress up on Halloween, but I'm dressing up a week later. Next Friday I'm going to a costume birthday party and I'm dressing up as an Orion in a Star Trek uniform. I'm looking forward to turning green, which isn't something you hear every day!
