Friday Pick-Me-Up
I just got my own personal mini comedy routine over the phone. One of our certification applicants is a nationally known comic - not a huge name - most people probably haven't heard of him though he has been on Comedy Central and BET and has won an Emmy. He was cracking wise while we were discussing his application. Made my day.
How 'bout you? Anything perking up your day so far?

I was complimented by the boss for the neatness and effectiveness of my work, which is important around here because it's the first step and if it's not done right it really gums up the works for the whole team. Small victories.

One of my clients' (who is turning 3 in two weeks so that ISN'T a pick me up, because I love him and he's so cute) has a new favorite thing to do.... "smack you on the heinie." Yes, I know I shouldn't find this funny, but I do. It's not a spanking thing, his parents don't spank, it's totally fresh behavior but I had to fight not to laugh every time he told me today he was going to "smack me on the heinie." I know it's not coming out right, but it's hilarious. This kid is a huge character.

After two weeks of sleeping poorly on vacation, we are all finally sleeping through the night again. It's amazing how the annoying things are better with sleep. And it's amazing how much better the good things are with sleep. The Kid was giving me the cutest kisses before his nap!
And my little thing is that I'm excited to find the winter coat that I wanted for the kid in his size. Unfortunately, it is in the suburbs and we have to drive there tonight, but I'm packing a dinner for the journey so we will try to make it fun!

I've got nothing for today. But tomorrow evening the mother in law is leaving and won't be back until January at the earliest. Probably after that. I know it makes me a horrible person, but I'm very much looking forward to this.

ks: It doesn't make you horrible. It makes you normal.

I had an early Thanksgiving dinner with dear, amazing friends, and the girls' dad agreed to look after the twins at the last minute, enabling me to go. I'm full of turkey and sweet potatoes and two kinds of pie. And now I'm going to get in bed and watch TV on my laptop until I fall asleep. AND I don't have to work again until Tuesday night (Monday is Canadian Thanksgiving).
Today is good.

Sorry Andromeda - confidentiality and all that - I can't say. Chances are you've probably heard him but he's nowhere near the fame level of, say a Chris Rock or even a Sinbad. I hadn't heard of him until he applied for certification and I started my investigation.
