Hurricane Saaaaannnndy

So, my precious dog's name is Channing.  *see evidence below for preciousness

For some reason, most of her 6 years on this earth, I've called her Sandy about half the time.  I guess it started from Channing to Channie to Sandy?  I usually say she's as crazy as a hurricane so not surprising that this one's name is Sandy and she's tearing stuff up.  I have quite a few friends on the East Coast- from South Carolina up to NYC.  I'm sending some good vibes and crossed fingers their way- I hope this storm is more bark than bite!

On a work note, today was one of those days that I really really really wish I could have "real walls" in my office.  Instead, we have these 3/4ths walls that are really just glorified cubicles.  I was grumpy, tired, cranky, pmsing, annoyed, hot, cold, headachy the entire day and I think I took it out on my team. It doesn't help that Mondays are usually my busiest day, have to get payroll in for each and every client and it is not an easy feat.  On top of that, we were extremely short staffed with one of our clients and it always sucks to have that, "surprise, we sucked today" conversation with them. However, they're the most sweet because on bosses day, they got me a cookie cake, flowers (in pic below) and decorated my office with different words that reminded them of me (courageous, thoughtful, sassy, best boss ever, thorough, dedicated, funny, etc). So, I've kept these words up just to remind myself that I AM AWESOME AND OTHER PEOPLE THINK I"M AWESOME, TOO!!!!!

On a positive note, I ate mostly healthy today and am convinced I am going to lose some serious weight this year.  COMMITMENT. I keep telling myself this:

Everyone- stay safe out there!  We're starting to get the hurricane winds here in Kentucky so I can only imagine what it's like on the coast!!

Blogs I've been reading

So, I've been watching all of these reality shows recently who just have the most ridiculously dramatic lives over being rich and famous.  Then I turn on my old school macbookpro that only works if the cord is plugged in just to  be reminded by looking at all the blogs I normally look at, my life sucks!  Everyone is married, getting married, planning a baby, planning a wedding, talking about how crazy their lives are with all the 234235 children they have and how in the world can the wife and the husband even begin to think about sex when there are so may children and then she feels fat so she goes on a diet and the diet is disgusting so then she starts running and then goes back to eating rallys every night in front of the tv.

I'm sick of seeing blogs like that.  What  I want to know is where are all the SINGLE and FABULOUS girls at?  I know I am not the only one so I'd love to hear from people where those blogs are... maybe this blog will become a single and fabulous blog for all the others like me who need it.
Like, what are you doing on a Saturday night? If you're me, then your saturday consisted of watching movies, eating, cuddling with your dog, and taking an ambien at 10 then not waking up until 11am.  Superlame but also so wonderful.  I just want to know I'm not the only one.  My sunday was a bit of a step up.  I got up, went to lunch with a girlfriend, went to whole foods and got some good shit, then went home and cooked some good shit (chili yum yum) and also some granola for the am and some lunch for the week.  Then I took my dog on a walk.. then I sit on my couch and wait for revenge to come on because ohmygoshitisthebestshowinthewholeworld!!!!!

Anyone else like this? I'd love to hear from you!
