Well, sure, that makes a lot of sense...

Last night I could have won an award for the worst night's sleep. I still need my sleeping pills to sleep well, but I need to take them at least 8 hours before I need to wake up. Since the Husband didn't get home until after 10:00 I didn't get to take one. (This was not the Husband's fault, since he was working bingo at church as part of the requirement for our Catholic school tuition subsidy.) Anyway, I slept poorly and Monday morning came really early. Tonight I will take a pill and sleep better.

This morning at BCFG, the Monday Morning meeting ran long and got a little boring. They (or I guess I should say "we") have a client/prospect workshop coming up and were debating the merits of different speakers and topics. I thought many of the ideas were lame, but kept my opinion to myself, since I'm new and work in a triangle. I was looking around the table of 6 men and me and I realized that, wow, there was a lot of hair gel going on at this meeting and none of it was mine. (I use Volumizing Tonic.) Is hair gel still cool? Somehow I have gotten the idea that hair gel isn't cool and that men's hair isn't supposed to look so gelled that it's "wet." I thought that look was the '90s. Perhaps I am wrong, but that's what I was thinking about today in the meeting, instead of Cash Balance plans.

My triangle also got more action today that it's gotten in the 4 weeks that I've worked there. Mr. X, Guy and I had a web conference this afternoon to learn how to use some new investment reporting software. Both Guy and Mr. X have spacious offices and I, as you know, have a tiny triangle. However, they decided that we should all watch the web conference together and that the best place to do that was my triangle. So, we were all crammed in around my monitor watching this WebEx, which really didn't make a lot of sense.

And that's today's news...the dog wants me to let her out into the rain so she can chase rabbits again. That is not going to happen. I let her out a little bit ago and she almost caught a rabbit. I don't think I could handle the dog killing something in my backyard.
