Woo Hoo!

For the past couple months, I have been on my way to a promotion. Meaning, I am doing everything that I used to do, plus all of the new stuff. I was fine with it, only because I knew it would not be forever. We wanted to make sure the appropriate people were lined up, allowing me to focus strictly on PR. Well, today is that day! I am officially on my way to becoming the Director of PR for the North American division of our company. I am over the moon! Could not be more excited -- I love working where I do, and this is just the beginning!

Maybe I should start dressing like Samantha Jones.

Maybe not. Samantha -- no. Charlotte -- yes.

Walk / Jog / Run

For all of you runners / joggers / walkers, http://www.walkjogrun.net/ is a really great site.

I have often wondered how far I run, but this way I can accurately tell. Plus, you can save the routes and use them as a way to track how far you run.

I did this yesterday on a couple of my favorite routes --- one was a lot shorter than I had thought! Looks like I need to step it up when I do that one…..

Dirrrrty Dallas

I am not sure what your cities are like, but having been born and raised in Dallas I can accurately say that at times it seems like this entire city is full of maniacs. People that are living the millionaire lifestyle, with $30,000 salaries. Debt up their ears. Women are filled with silicone and the men are more concerned with their car than anything else. So, when my wonderful friend (and fellow Dallas-ite) passed along this link I was thoroughly amused.

Is your city dirty? Dallas sure is.

(The Christina Aguilera song was in my head the entire time I was writing this post)

NO means NO

WARNIG – I am about to ramble about a work issue that drives me insane. I am sure many of you are also agitated by this same thing.

The over CC’r. Specifically, the person that deems it necessary to respond to an email, with your superior copied. Was my answer not what you wanted to hear? Are you going to run to daddy since mommy gave you an answer you did not like? Come on. I would not be in a position to tell you NO, if I was not able to have to authority to tell you NO. If I think it is important enough to pass along, then I will. You do not need to make that decision for me. No, I am not trying to act all high and mighty; I am just doing my job. I don’t do your job – you don’t need to try to do mine.

Now I feel better…. I can’t be the only person that feels this way—right??

Dear Mr. Romo,

Dear Tomy Romo:

We, your loyal Dallas fans, want what is best for you. And by that, we mean -- WIN THE SUPER BOWL! I completely understand that a boy needs some lovin, but if the below post from Perez Hilton is true...... well, lets just say that Jessica and her pink jersey need to STAY AWAY from Texas Stadium next weekend. I hope you are getting your Jessica fix this weekend, then you come back to Dallas focused and prepared to win. (After you win the Super Bowl, you can take Jessica to Disney with you for some more fun in the sun.)

Love, Mrs. Preppy

Steve the Cat

Does this make me a bad mom?

I don't think that it does. My parents cat does the same thing. I think that Steve probably picked up this bad habit from watching Tigger.

Happy New Year!

From our home to your home.... Happy New Year!

(In that last pic -- my best friend introduced me to Mr. Accountant and in college I introduced her to her husband! Funny how those things work out.....)

Inversion Fun

No, these pictures are not upside down. The people in the pictures are!

Me (below)

My dad recently bid on an inversion machine at a silent auction, in the hopes of it helping out his back..... well, Christmas Eve Eve at my parents house was spent hanging upside down! Who cares about the benefits the machine has on your back - we wanted to see who could hang upside own the longest!
