Raining

Blech it's crap outside - Finally a day to catch up on chores. my place is a pigsty. I haven't really been blogging lately. The reason is pretty good - I've been working 15 hours per day.

Career - i've never been in a more competitive job before where results are crucial. Leading a team of 14 "pur-laine" quebecers and being accountable for their success is probably the biggest rush of my life.

Sometimes I can't believe that the big bosses trust a 26 year old princess to make decisions that can have significant outcomes (good and bad). One thing is for sure this job has brought me closer to my faith in God. I've recently started praying before and after negotiations, both easy and difficult. I just pray for wisdom and the ability to stay human and to always do the right thing.

putain!

2 "swoop-ins" in the month of march... that's right. my first bf - the blond all star hockey player turned fat-assed pothead - writes me this sob sob letter...

then A also writes me asking me to update him...that's right ladies...A wrote an annual sniff sniff letter...

why do guys do that? i am perfectly happy living my chaotic life. finally found someone that makes me smile. and then the swoop. thank god i am armed with cynicism and a sense of humour.

anyways - i already wrote about this phenomenon last year.

kisses.

so i realized that one can be kissed a lot in the working world. 2 cheek kiss that is. you get one after the holidays, when you get a promotion, when you announce good news, just before you leave for a trip, at a fancy occasion, at a conference, etc etc.

quebecer-frenchy-colleagues: 2 cheek kiss = hand shake

chinese-personal-space-issue-gal: 2 cheek kiss = ACK!

cheers.
