"quick" synopsis of the past weeks

So I'm getting bad about this blog thing. I really want to be updating it more frequently, but I never seem to get 'round to it when I mean to. Such is life, right?

Well, since I last posted anything, my birthday has come and gone. It was fantabulous. There was a party at Travis' house, which was amazing! I think everyone had a great time, I certainly did. There are some cute pictures too, among a herd of blurry ones. But that just means we were having fun. ;)

My most awesomest birthday present was from Trav himself, an iPod nano! In black. The thing is so very cool. I can now play music in my car, no more radio. Woohoo!!!

I also loved the shot glass Swetal gave me with my name engraved on it. It is very awesome and special. And of course, all my other gifts were wonderful too. I really did have a great birthday.

New tires on my car, new contact lenses, a new featherbed (which came today in the mail, and I can't wait to sleep on) and new jeans. That may sum up my new aquisitions over the past few weeks.

Tonight is Ad Club Premiere Night, at Trailblazers Studios in Raleigh. It is going to be a huge advertising-world schmoozefest, with free catered dinner from Michael Deans, which should be great. And then a viewing of allllll the networks premiere tapes for Fall 2005. I will be in-the-know of anything to watch on TV from now until December. So, after tonight, if you're wondering what's on, forget TV Guide and go straight to your best source of media knowledge...ME!

Anyways, I am slightly nervous about tonight, because I am new to this business, and everyone will know everyone, except for me, and Buzz, the new guy at work here also (oh yeah...did I forget to mention Buzz?! He's interesting, shares my office now, which is strange, but overall, he seems like a very likeable guy).

Since I'm mentioning Buzz, I realized I have also not mentioned our most recent MRPP departure. Yes, another one! (rolling eyes) Kathleen has left the company as of two days ago. They're dropping like flies around here. Good news is that this time, we hired someone else immediately. I have been assured by other people in the ad business that I will love our new employee. So, I have great expectations from her already. And, in the process of another changing of employees here at MRPP, I have regained one of my former accounts, the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau. I would rather have regained 123NC.com, but whatever, the GRCVB is a lot easier of an account to manage, so there's that...

Ok, time to get back to work. Have a great and wonderful week y'all. Talk to you soon(er), I hope!
