Accents
The director of Business Development is having an open door meeting with a man who has a British accent. Why am I walking past her office multiple times to catch a glimpse of this guy to see if he’s hot?
What is it about accents that make a man more desirable? This guy is just average (and he’s older, but I’m not hatin’) but the fact that he has this accent has got me...

On Jay Cutler
All I have to say is - no one was questioning the validity of Tom Brady’s injury when he got knocked out of the AFC championship back in 2001. Why? Because he’s golden boy QB and he can do no wrong. But Cutler gets taken out of the game because of this “knee injury” and everyone points fingers.
First of all… wait for the results of today’s MRI to come back...
OMAHA, here I come!!

I'M GOING TO TOKYO!!!!!!
A while back I posted my crazy travel schedule for work. There have been some recent changes to that schedule.
Week 6 has now been changed from home to TOKYO, JAPAN!
Although this trip is happning in the midst of my “busy time” of the year, I’m super excited. I’ve been told several times that I would be sent to Tokyo and now it’s FINALLY happening! Sure,...

rejection!!
I’m pretty sure the vending machine just told my fat-ass self that I should not be trying to procure a snack from it. I put a quarter in and it buzzed loudly at me, then spit out said quarter. Ok vending maching - point taken. I will walk away snack-less and hungry.
In my defense, I’m getting ready to take a 6½ hour car ride from Chicago to Des Moines - so the snack is needed and...

"SNOW DAYS"
I have a faint recollection of what that means because I used to get them back in grade, junior high and high school. After that - they ceased to exist.
Snow days from work? HA! That has never happened to me and I’ve been working a Mon-Fri, 8-5 job for almost 6 years now. Especially in CHICAGO of all places… not even when we get a foot or more of snow. I wonder if we would...

MAN GETS PARKING TICKET WHILE PAYING FOR PARKING →
Thanks to the RedEye tumblr, I watched this video and felt enraged for this poor guy. Parking in this city is such a joke!

Sooo... Matt Garza to the Cubs huh?
Not sure how I feel about this 8-player trade deal. Not sure giving up one of our best minor league pitchers was the right move. Not sure if this is the right move for my team period. Not sure that this will help us go to the post-season and win a World Series.
Here’s to hoping that Hendry knows what he’s doing with these ridiculous decisions he’s been making.

iPhone Alarm Issue →
I totally thought it was MY fault that I overslept this morning… especially since I couldn’t fall asleep and only got about 4 solid hours in.
Thanks a lot, Apple, for telling me “the problem would fix itself by January 3rd” and then it NOT fixing itself.

BIZ TRIPS
After this week is over - I will be traveling somewhere. 6 of the next 8 weeks (not including this week) I will be out of town.
Although I’m not looking forward to living out of a suitcase, hotel rooms and paying rent for my apartment that I’ll barely be living in the next 2 months… I’m ready to break free of this jail cell of a cubicle.
Here’s my schedule:
