Hey, I'm a bad ass. Don't ever forget that. Posted by Melodious at PM 1 comment:. Thursday, April 13, Going, going. To say I'm happy about it is the understatement of the century! Well - allow me to elaborate a bit.
If you've read any of my profile and c'mon - admit it - you know you have! Little did I know, however, that my last day with the company would be in the same shit-hole department where I started. See, the thing is, I had fairly high hopes for this job when I first started. Turns out, there are a LOT of extremely boring, mind numbing positions in a corporate office - and mine is at the bottom of the food chain, but the top of the boring scale.
All of this might be somewhat tolerable given that each of us has our fair share of downtime, which allows for a lot of surfing time - if it weren't for my micro-managing, overbearing immediate supervisor. I believe I alluded to her idiocy in earlier posts, so I won't insult your intelligence by repeating it here. But I digress. I don't know what I'm more excited about - starting my new job, ending this one, or being able to drink at lunch today with no guilt. No medals for this "honor" - but we were pleased with the placement for our first time out.
Hopefully, next year will bring us new bling! Got to spend last weekend with my son, who soaked up all the barbershop harmony he could handle - and didn't complain once.
In spite of the fact that he's spent his whole life around it, most kids would whine just a little - but he never uttered a peep. He also just got his new "mouth hardware" - braces for the next two years. He's handling it like such a trooper! I'm so proud of him!! I'll finally be able to get back into graphic design, which is where my training is - not to mention my soul.
To say I'm relieved is an understatement!! I'm so happy, I could shit. Started my new workout routine yesterday. So far, so good. I have high hopes of sticking with this - especially since I'm paying for it. The newest thing for me with this is actually working with a trainer. I'm hoping that, in itself, will help keep me on the right track.
I could probably stand to lose more, but with those two combined, I have high hopes of it looking like a bigger loss I'm built weird, so most people don't know how much I truly weigh, including my husband - which is how I plan to keep it. I'll keep you posted on the progress! Thursday, March 23, Proof of my whereabouts. I mentioned last week crikey, has it already been a WEEK!? It has proved a MOST helpful tool!! The most recent call happened last week.
A friend of mine needed a precision driver to entrust with a very special car for a short film promoting a very good cause. It would be a full day of filming on multiple locations. We would start in the early morning, shooting static, aerial, drive-by, and vehicle-to-vehicle shots. Mid-day we would break for dialogue shots at a static location, then more B-roll car footage at sunset. I was given wardrobe requirements, times, and locations. I spent the evening before researching the car, its controls, specs, and performance.
The wardrobe part was easier. If I dug deep into the dark corner of my closet, past the oil-stained trousers and Blipshift T-shirts, I could meet the image requirements: smart, sophisticated, and modern.
Neutral and dark tones were a must—something that would complement, not distract from, the car. I opted for mildly tight-fitting black Calvin Klein jeans luckily, no clutch-pedal flexibility would be needed , a dark blue collared shirt, and a black high-collar jacket to hide the scar from a recent neck surgery.
