We were post-gaming the Oscars. My one coworker liked it! Especially Billy Crystal! I don't think we can be friends any more.

Can't get the coffee started without having coffee?
The last time I bought coffee beans, I tried the new Starbucks blond roast. To me, it's like liquid speedballs. If I finish my one cup in the morning, I am a jittery, anxious mess. It sort of helps with sleepiness, but mostly it makes me both wired and tired. I am not loving it.
I am awake! Shockingly, even before my friend! It's almost 9am here. But almost 7 to our bodies. I brushed my teeth and am now trying to decide if I have energy to make breakfast or just want to head straight to the pool.
...oh but I'll need sunscreen help, so breakfast it is.
I dressed lightly because it's a beautiful day outside, only to find that my windowless office is freezing cold! So now I'm shivering and clutching my coffee, trying to warm up.
My coffee was broken this morning. So I have had my cup of it, and am still one with the gronk.
This seems unfair.
No coffee for me. . . I predict a headache.
Wait. I think I have some instant.
I should be working on my resume, but instead I'm having second breakfast. I was so burned out in my last job, I don't want to think about what I was doing there!
I can thank Meryl Streep's win and my decision to pick her at the last minute.
DH pooh-poohed me when I said she'd win because they LURVE her, but I was right! Poor Glenn Close, she's never won, has she?
I think everyone should pick a day and work on their resumes while they still have jobs. Like, a few times a year. Update it with your major recent accomplishments. That way, when you need it, you only have to polish it up. It doesn't become a major source of stress when you already have other sources of stress, and you have access to information to pump it up, like your official job description (no idea where I'd find mine, though) or project descriptions.
I think it's an extremely good idea, but one I only partake of rarely.
I feel like crap again today, but I have at least two mandatory meetings. This job does *not* get the concept of sick days. And my body doesn't get the concept of healthy days.
I'm forced to update yearly for the sake of my merit review, but if I ever wanted to go on the market it would need a major rewrite. Ugh, totally feel for you Tom.
