The Mini Blog

I'm a bit distracted today for a few reasons that I want to get out the way early:
1. I washed the kitchen floor. I mean, after yesterday's blog the writing was on the wall. How could I not wash it? Now even my blog shows that I delay cleanliness for blogging. Priorities!

2. The HR rep from the company that I had a phone interview with last week, returned my message. The job went to a different applicant.

3. I got an email from a friend, a "business peer" about having to work all last night to get something done by 9am today.

4. Victoria's Secret sent an offer for free panties and $10 off on a purchase of a bra.

Along with the fact that my back is feeling great, I feel much better today. The phone call was around 10am, and surprised me. I'm always hearing about how people interview and never hear back either way about jobs. So when K called me, even with non-positive news, I was okay with it. She admitted it was something she meant to do since last Thursday and had put it off and forgot about it. I had realized last Thursday that not hearing back from the Company, to schedule a face-to-face interview, that the opportunity was dead. But it was still nice to get that call from K. wishing me well and being friendly.

After allowing myself to make some moves on Scrabulous, it was off to do the floor. And when that was done, I re-read the email I got at midnight from A., who had been at work since 9am Monday, and was still in his office, to approve and make sure this one project got done. He's Uber-Productive, like I used to be. Instead, remembering what I used to go through on days/nights like that, I hope he got some rest, a shower, and maybe some time off today. I always hated the day after working all night.

Lastly, I am one of the world's biggest Red Sox fans. Haven't blogged about that yet. But if anyone saw how the Red Sox celebrated on the field after winning the World Series last fall, you'll appreciate the dancing in this video.
