Almost the Weekend

So, I'm almost done w/ my first week at my new job. Almost. And in honor of that IBM has decided to take Monday off! Can you believe it?

Man, it's like a ghost town today though! Between people working from home and taking off to make a long weekend even longer, nothing is going on. Which I want to make perfectly clear, I am NOT complaining at all about it :)

Things improved a lot between my last work related entry and today - my mentor was away at a class for two days and returned and has been super helpful. I generally feel like I can handle this. Most of the time. :) I have a ton to learn, but that's the point of all of this so I'm down with that.

So, what's up for this weekend? We're still in final negotiations with timing of it all, but I know we'll have some pizza with my parents and hang out w/ Casey & Amy to celebrate Casey's b-day. It'll be nice to spend a weekend largely at home too, to get caught up on cleaning up and make some fun food. All the traveling - btwn the beach and then Scott going to Boston - has been rough. Some QT will be nice. And the forecast looks gorg, so maybe we can visit the pool or the tennis courts.

And I have got to get my running game on - no excuses. And I fully intend to take a break after the 5k. Hear that body? Just 2 more weeks until you can be lazy. Stick with me, ok?
