Looked like we were going to miss or lose a day thanks to blogger being down, but nope, it salvaged Thursday and here it is for Friday. Woo hoo!

So I think at the beginning of every month I am going to print out a calendar. Then on days where I make good decisions, I will post a gold star. Every day I am faced with decisions and half the time I make poor ones. Yes, I know that sounds childish and silly, but remember, I am an over grown narcissistic child with poor impulse control. A gold star to remind me might be just what I need.

What prompted this? I had a company meeting last night which turned into a bit of a going away party for me. It was supposed to just be a regular meeting where they updated everyone on the pipeline but then word got out that I was leaving as a FTE and all hell broke loose. The booze started pouring and everyone starting talking. Funny thing was at the end of the presentation my bosses gave they asked for feedback. I spoke up and said 'If you had done a meeting like this two months ago, I might have been persuaded to stay. Doing it every six months is shit'. They actually appreciated this and understood where I was coming from on the matter.

At the end of the meeting is where decision time came into play. I was three blocks from one of my favorite bars. Three blocks. And trust me, I had to think hard about this one. BUT I came home, did laundry, watched TV and went to bed. Gold fucking star.

Tonight is game night and I have ten people coming over in less than two hours. Need to get ready!
