we will rock you

i am breathing deep breaths for the first time in several days.

after an early morning pre-meeting-meeting with my boss that went, shall we say, anxiously, i am pleased to report that i actually DID rock at the real meeting with my boss and the VP. even got a "nicely done" from the VP and a smile of 'Thank the Lord' from my boss.

extra bonus: one of the other staffers who is a friend of mine was in the meeting, so i have extra back up when inevitably a few months down the line the powers that be decide that i am a lazy crack pot, i will have a witness to the effect that they thought all my ideas were brilliant today.

now i just have to make all these brilliant ideas actually work, and produce some results. asap.
but in the mean time, i went to the building convenience store and bought myself a celebratory candy bar.

food as reward is always a good idea, right??

and you know what else rocks? having a boy like you.

Yale has really stepped up his game, and if he continues in this vein i think that i may actually end up smitten.

question: does it count if you "end up" smitten? or do i have to be knocked out with adoration and animalistic urges on your first meeting?

if you are happily partnered to someone with whom love and happily ever after was a process rather than a lightning bolt moment of epiphany, kindly leave word.

i'm pretty sure that most everyone i can think of who is in deep smit was a 'love at first sight' situation... well... actually, that's not true. i can think of at least 2 people for whom love was a slow thaw of passion, but certainly fewer than the 'crazy in love the moment we clapped eyes' contingent.

thank you for your participation in my emotional well being.
because i really want to really like him.

he sends me youtube videos of my favorite scenes from 'mamma mia' and 'so i married an axe murderer' in the middle of the night so that i see them first thing when i get to work. just so i can start my stressful days with a smile.

who does that?

someone who thinks that i am a rock star.

and so, in honor of my global warming trend to the idea of having a boy creeping into my life, i have decided to bestow Yale with his own blog tag. which immediately puts him in the elite crowd of individual boys with their own blog tag. nicely done, yale. nicely done.
