intruder alert!

(ProBlog: Thanks to a delay in arriving at the office and then being notified of almost an immediate meeting, I am now finishing a two-hour old bowl of oatmeal that has congealed into a oaty gelatinous glob. Definitely NOT what I wish I was having for breakfast today)

So much has been in the news of late regarding potential outbreaks of disease and the pandemic threat to the wellbeing of man- and chicken-kind, but I really wish someone would put the heat on to further investigate the troublesome yet ubiquitous rhinoviruses so often responsible for otitis media, and those that I fear have invaded my own upper respiratory tract. Earrache, headache, sore throat, mild fever, the "I have been bit by a truck" achy-ness....all present. Someone pass my blankie and some chicken soup...Scotteee and his Scottish germs! BEGONE!

Had another very fulfilling meeting today. Things at work continue to get better and better and I am being trusted with increasingly more responsibilities, which I more than relish. I am excited to be working on all of these pojects; I consider it a professional success to be entrusted with work that has a direct impact on the Federation. I will take all they can give me...I want to do it all. And word on the street is that a certain former President of the United States (let's call him B. Clinton...OH wait that's too obvious, let's just say Bill C., hehehehe) is on slate to be commissioned as a motivational speaker for a meeting that I will have direct involvement in. I have heard the man speak, and it is an experience never to be forgotten. If I actually have the opportunity to meet this individual it would go far beyond any expectation I have had for my professional opportunities. I will resist wearing a blue dress, however...hehehehe. I foresee busy, demanding, but productive times ahead.

Which begs the question as to why I am Blogging and not working. Well I had to do something while I made my way through this oatmeal.

Dutch class tonight then Buddha Bar! I hope I make it without being virally overtaken.
