Doesn't surprise me. I think I kinda expect both Jason and Steve at these things now and would be disappointed if either/both did not attend.

So am I a Type A workaholic?
Jun. 18th, 2008 05:44 pmI don't think I am. But I do get obsessed with work--because despite all my bitching--I really do like it and it's where I get a lot of my "strokes".
I'm wondering about myself because--tomorrow is my birthday. And NO I'm not saying that for attention--in RL I'm not even telling anyone who doesn't already know - i.e., family. I feel uncomfortable with too much RL attention. But LJ isn't RL and I can "hide" pretty easily if I want to.
So anyway...I'm feeling lame and a bit of a workaholic or something because I'm feeling GUILTY because I'm taking tomorrow afternoon and Friday off of work because of my birthday. I had no real plans for tomorrow specifically because Hubby has a mandatory class he has to take tomorrow evening. He's taking me to the beach on Friday--so that's okay--np. I just wanted to not be AT WORK for at least part of the day on my birthday so I could, well, basically do nothing but wallow in SPN-related activities. I just found out my daughter, her boyfriend, and my mother will be coming over tomorrow evening to make me a dinner--that's cool. But again--feeling guilty about leaving work at 2pm.
I had had a doctor's appointment this past Monday that I had to schedule a month in advance (for my knee) -- then my directing sponsor required something on Monday so I decided to reschedule. The only other time slot available within the next two weeks was 4pm on my birthday. In downtown--13 miles away from where I live. But I decided this deliverable for the sponsor was more important so I made the change.
All week I kept going back and forth about again rescheduling--even if it was 2 weeks in future--because I SO did not want to be in downtown at 4pm on the day of the birthday -- seeing a doctor! I kept talking myself out of rescheduling. And you know? Finally I said screw it. I reschedule at a drop of a hat for my sponsor--but not for myself? And then later this week when they wanted to schedule more meetings for Friday that my hubby was taking me to the beach for--I felt GUILTY for saying I couldn't do it and they'd have to pick another time.
I need to get my priorities straightened out.
I just had a thought. I don't think it's Type A personality. I think it's that damn "I'm a Good and Responsible Girl and Want Everyone to Like Me' syndrome that so many of us females grew up with. Dammit. I need to bring out my inner bitch more often at work.
And I'm not even f-locking this. So THERE work! (Not that anyone at work will see this--but still I should get some points.)

Where is Waldo?
Jun. 18th, 2008 06:20 pmOr in this case where are my SPN Connections Trading Cards today? As I said yesterday my cards shipped on the 12th and are making their leisurely way on their grand tour of the US. Due to arrive in Oregon on Friday.
Yesterday they left Kentucky. I hope they really enjoyed their stopover there. But I think they've decided to take the backroads and maybe enjoy some of those special diners or motels that Sam and Dean enjoy so much. Perhaps a roadside attraction--Mystery Spot anyone?
Because when I checked just now the record still says 6/17 departed Kentucky. I hope they're picking me up some souvenirs at those roadside attractions.

My 2 year LJ anniversary!!!
Jun. 18th, 2008 06:32 pmI can't believe it. 2 years? Really?
I just got curious so I started going back in history increasing my skip= record count. I've made about 285 entries. Which probably isn't a lot compared to hard-core LJers. However considering that I've been spamming a lot in recent months perhaps my counts will increase. Is that good thing or a bad thing?
So my first post was on July 23, 2006 and was a photo of Sayid of LOST!
I came to LJ by googling online for LOST Fanfic. It was through a few of LOST fanfic LJ members that I discovered SPN. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Some boring stats:
