Employee Appreciation BBQ,

Jump to Comments

My employer catered bbq and allowed us 2 hours for lunch and gave away prizes in a raffle to show his appreciation. We have been in a pay raise freeze for a little over a year but in this economy I am just happy to have a job. So I found the lunch to be especially nice given the times. But my prize in the raffle? This I could have done without. In other news I am going to see The Phantom of the Opera tomorrow after work. I am so excited. The original plan was for all the girls in the book club to go as one of our outings. But scheduling conflicts, money, and general disinterest made it impossible for everyone to agree on a date to go so I am going alone. This has happened to me more times than I can count. Since I was 14 years old I have been forced to go to concerts, movies, or plays alone because no one in my circle was interested. Oh well, if the choice is between going alone or not going at all I always choose going alone.

From my mom this morning:
Yesterday I got a rare glimpse of Cameron. When I left the office I came down Central to get around some of the traffic. While driving I thought about the fact that there is a Dairy Queen down the street on Central. I pulled in and told Cameron I did not have a lot of money so we had to get something small. He said ok. Then he said something that I can’t seem to get out of my mind. He said ” I use to come here with my dad.” “I really miss doing that with him.” It really is sad that Cameron has a dad but his dad is too stupid to realize what he is missing out on.

Yes it is sad…I met the ex’s sister last night for dinner and she apologized profusely for her and her mom basically writing the boys off because they didn’t want to deal with the ex’s anger. The bastard. She invited them to their family reunion in September and she asked me to please let her know when the boys have events because she would really like to attend, see more of them. We’ll see how it goes.

I miss the boys when they are away I guess that’s natural but it was fun taking my time over dinner last night and not being pressed for time. And it’s nice to be in the house alone every once in awhile. I am most comfortable when I can parade around naked. I find it’s not something I can do when a guy is around they see it as a sexual invite and I obviously can’t do it when the boys are home. So it was nice to be free of the clothes for an evening and just chill out. I haven’t slept that peacefully in quite awhile.
