Changes

In the photo below, please note how long my hair is:

Yes, it curls around my boob (and I'm ...well endowed...).

You're probably reading this thinking that I'm going to post a picture of my new hair cut (well...new-ER.) - yeah - not today. This is (L-R) Chelsea, me, Nicole, and Allison a day or 2 before Nicole moved to Utah. She's not really that tall - she's wearing her high-heeled boots because her boytoy is 6'5."

Along with the new hair cut (photo coming soon, I promise...no really...), I have FABULOUS news!

I asked my boss on Tuesday (my 3-month anniversary at SQA Services) what my next step is because that was the end of my internship. She said that she is in the process of writing my contract to hire me on permanently. Once she writes the contract, it has to be approved by her supervisor and then the President (who is the co-founder of the band that he is insisting I join as the lead singer). She's confident there will not be any problems. So, the official offer hasn't been extended, but she congratulated me today and ensured me I have nothing to worry about.

I love my job so much. I love the responsibility and how insanely hectic it is. I love my bosses and my 2 coworkers. I love the personalities I deal with and the cultural knowledge I gain through the Associates. I love the quirks of all of my coworkers and the fact that I'm in a band. I love the trust my bosses have in me and the many opportunities they've given me to prove myself.

I can't think of a better company to work for - and trust me, I read about companies all over the world and how they function: SQA is a great company.

Things that induce laughter/smiles/happy feelings in me today:

1. Cuddling with Jake, the dog. He's the best man I have in my life right now (aside from the blood relatives and Kyle, the guy I've never met). I come home every day to a wagging tail and as many kisses as I can tolerate. He has to be put to bed every night and that can involve him sitting on my lap, moaning, and giving me kisses, practically begging to not be put to bed. He's so weird.

2. Alan Rickman. I heart him.

3. I can't wait until Chelsea's birthday (cause that's when the book I've been waiting for comes out). I'm a horrible friend. I know. She knows. WE ALL KNOW!

4. I wish I knew what the heck certain people were thinking. My life would be so much easier.

5. I'm a super freak. And not in the Rick James way - in the psychic way. On Sunday, my mom and I were channel surfing and I saw "The Music Man" on one of the channels. I don't particularly care for that movie, but I happen to quite enjoy the "Marion the Librarian" scene. As I was clicking to the channel, I said, "I hope we're catching 'Marion the Librarian' and then I can change the channel again." Yeah, right as I clicked over "Marion the Librarian" started.
