Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Fridays...really, I do. And there's nothing better than Friday's in the summer at our firm, because I get out at 3. It's such a treat to go to lunch, get back around 1:15, and know that you only have a little while longer before you are home free! Lately I just can't wait to get out of here. Not sure if it's because I know I could be working in Philly right now, taking the train into work and relaxing...reading a book, or what. Or maybe it's just because in the summer time all I want to do is be home, working on the yard, or sitting on the couch watching the Sopranos with Tony. Course I think I'd rather be doing that any time of year.

It's going to be HOT HOT HOT this weekend, and the beginning of next week. I think I'll be spending lots of time in Tony's Dad's pool. Probably with Ant, too. He's a water rat just like I used to be when I was a kid. I've missed him too, so I'm hoping he does want to go swimming with me. He's been down at the shore with his mom all week...and I've missed having him around to spar with. He's fun to have around. And I know Tony misses him.

Doesn't look like I'm leaving the Delaware office anytime soon. I know that will make Martha happy, but it's going to start getting frustrating for me eventually. They have an interview set up next week. The first one so far, but my boss said he's not too hopeful that she's going to be a good fit. He's actually trying to get me to steal my friend from her firm and get her to work over here. I don't think she'd like doing what I do though...she's got a much more exciting life in family law and stuff. He told me they just want to find my clone. Haha. I guess they aren't getting good responses to the ads they are running for this position. Which kind of surprises me I guess. I had a long talk with one of the associates here yesterday, one that I really like. She kept telling me not to stay with this place too long, that I'm too good, and too marketable to keep making less money than I could elsewhere. I do agree with her. But it was nice to hear someone else backing me up. It's really weird though, when someone is telling you how bright and analytical and smart you are. That doesn't happen to often, especially these days. I always had teachers in school, certain ones, that would tell me things like that. But at work, it's few and far between, unless you are lucky. My boss is usually pretty good about that. I just wish he could give me money all the time too! That would rule. I will miss working with most of the people here though. At least, the paralegals and the attorneys. I won't miss most of the secretaries...there is always some sort of drama going on with them. Seriously. It's like a freaking soap opera some days...and it's so distracting. You'd think grown women could act more like adults...but I swear some of them are too catty to ever grow up. One of them flicked me in the back of the head once. Flicked me! Like I was her kid, or an annoying fly in her way. I seriously wanted to smack her, but I checked myself. No use getting into a fight with her, when it'll make me look bad...and she's like twenty years older than me. But you get the idea.

I could keep rambling on, since I'm at work, and currently bored...but I should probably find something around here to do to make me look busy. Have a good weekend everyone. Be safe, stay cool, and relax!

Oh and P.S. - Denise, it was definitely me who sent the gay magazine to your house...I do know how much you and Steve like to swing! hahahaha. love you girl!
