Trying to FUCKING BLOG
I am still having trouble with this site. I think I need to face the fact that this laptop is a piece of shittt. Half the time I can't even access the damn thing.
Okso, calming down. Hello everyone. It is a beautiful Saturday, Jazmine is sleeping, I'm sipping a SugarFree Red Bull (yes, still hooked on them). Paul isn't here. Let's see if I can get in a monster posting.
Well since I've been so not blogging, I'll just start with today and see where it goes.
Big party tonight at KC's home downtown. Tony K, an ex-employee of our esteemed firm, is celebrating the settlement of his lawsuit with our firm (hope this is vague enough) with a big party. His lawyer is supplying the champagne, apparently. And KC is providing her fab apartment as the venue.
B, a fellow employee who is a friend of Tony, is invited. JG, who was once outed by TK as having had a few drinks before she went on the air, is not. JG hates Tony. However, B wants to bring JG because they've uh...long been rumored to be DOING IT. I told KC yesterday that this seems to prove that theory true. What we can't understand is why JG, who is kinda hot, would want to hang with B, who is not. And who is also about 15 years younger. He is no Ashton Kutcher. He's kind of a doofus. KC actually said to me that he is bringing the level of the party "down a notch".
I can't wait to see what happens if JG actually does show up. I can't imagine why she would want to go to the party (except I suppose it gives her a reason to hang out with B). Maybe she and Tony will start a fight. It's always a better party with some drama.
Hoping NOT to supply drama is yours truly. Things with me have been calm, sort of. Paul and I aren't fighting. We've just been so damn busy...and I was kind of looking forward to spending the weekend alone...but as I said in the earlier post, we've got Jazmine here. Now I love Jaz...but this is a small apartment.
The baby thing isn't happening. Just not going anywhere. We're still trying but I was really kind of devastated this time when I realized all our planning hadn't worked. Although my mother told me she didn't go through menopause till she was 56! My god. So maybe I've still got lots of time (although I'm not sure how old a mother I really want to be).
And now the job thing is really heating up. TK is just fun to work with. He's a big flirt, too. He told me once I was a "walking HR complaint"...but he is ten times worse. He talks to every pretty girl who walks by in the office. He calls them cupcakes. And he walks a fine line with me as well. As a matter of fact, I'm not sure what to think. TK isn't predatory the way Magoo is...but he's taken to text messaging me at night and on the weekends. Not all the time. But enough that I kind of wonder why he's thinking about ME at those moments. Sometimes they are work-related. Often though, he's joking around, gossiping with me about where he is or what he and his girlfriend are fighting about. I try to keep it light but even Paul has suggested that I talk to him about it. You just don't know if you're making too much out of it or not. TK strikes me as the walking HR complaint. He says he was raised to tell a girl at least once a day that she was beautiful...I think he needs to be more careful. Not so much with me. Let's face it--been there, done that. No danger of going there again. But in general. He brings out the maternal in me.
On the work front, I am learning how to schmooze economists and academics...and being producer and booker takes up my whole frigging day. I now speak to MW regularly, since he sits next to TK. I am in this whole other orbit and it's a little overwhelming. I am studying economics (yes, I've gone whole hog on this new gig) and I'm just...all about the show. And it's amazing how everyone stays out of my way. TK makes sure they stay out of my way. He's good for that.
The weirdest part of the day has become the time when TK and I are coming into the studio for the 2pm show, and Magoo and SP, his producer, are leaving. It's like, oh hey hi. EVERY DAY. It is so...weird!!!
So that's a quick catch up on what's been going on. Nothing really...and everything. My new hours mean I am not in the office when you all are (those of you overseas). I miss frap tests and one-act plays. I miss chit chatting. I hope to get a handle on all of this soon.
I enjoy it but let me just say boldly, four months of maternity leave would be preferable. I am actually ending this early as Young Jazmine is stirring. She can't see this blog, that's for sure. Love you all.
