The Ups and Downs

I was going to talk about my company and the ups and down but upon considering that it seems a bad idea. I am not sure what is public and what is not so I'll just avoid the topic and say there are ups and downs.

Tomorrow night is a formal event that I have been lucky enough to invited to for work. My boss invited me with her one invite so I feel pretty good about that, but also it is always fun to get dressed up and network with some pretty highly placed people - not just in my company but the larger companies in Denver. My boss is convinced that I will meet someone I will be interested in. Have I ever mentioned that she is a hopeless romantic?

My dress is I think probably my favorite of the ones I own. It is one of those little black dresses that just make you feel good about your body. I mean Calvin Klein makes dresses that just fit my body and actually make it look decent. Yes thank you Calvin for understanding I have breasts.....

Looking forward to March

I have a trip planned to Canada to visit a friend of mine up there. I am going to of course head to the Avalanche match while I am in Canada. That should be fun to do with a two big hockey fans who are on opposite teams. And yes I am totally going to sport my Av's jersey in the great north :)

It will be very nice to get away for awhile. I am lucky enough to be able to spend a week there between classes. It's hard for me to believe I am almost half way done with my masters degree. I still have a couple really big choices to make in so far as do I go Oracle or MSSQL? Then when I am done do I go project or DBA? I like parts of both and dislike parts of both.

I am still missing Thomas quite a bit. It is strange to come home and not be greeted by a howling cat who is certain that he is starving to death.

Oh and I finally got the 4Runner in the shop and fixed. It was a battery and a cable issue.

Busy Weekend


Thursday night was an Av's game. Friday was this picture. We headed up very early in the day and had breakfast before hitting the slopes at A-Basin. We didn't do anything crazy and stuck to the green runs but I had a good time. Saturday was another Av's game. By the time Saturday night rolled around I just wanted some down time instead of the dinner plans I had made.

Today was homework and housework and still feeling under the weather. I am not sure the anti-biotics really killed the strep throat that I have had for far too long now. I scrapped the plans I had today to just try and rest.
