What may come as a surprise to some is that I am not overly fond of being centre of attention. However, I do appreciate it when people make me feel special. I am just not overly awesome at letting people know I appreciate it. So - if anyone out there falls into this category, please know that your efforts are not wasted on pitiful little me.Today I am presenting a double ET, both focused on pitiful little me.
The first one is that I went out for lunch with my former boss and my current boss. We went to Joso's and the food was incredibly again and there was even a "show" which was not so much incredible as it was awkward and somewhat scarring. The less said about that the better. It's very strange that you work with people for years and you still know so little about them. I guess that's my fault for not asking enough questions and for us being so busy all the time. It's easy to forget that we are all real people.
The second thing is that I attended a soiree in my honour this evening. Organized by Sue, it was meant to be a toast/roast, but unfortunately I was finishing up my migraine episode and couldn't really drink. I did manage about half a beer [woo! party!] and a bowl of soup [again, nothing says party like a bowl of soup]. It was tremendously fun though [I'm really starting to enjoy not drinking...because I'm old] with a number of people showing up [including some ghosts of workplace past] and indulging on my behalf.
I still have managed to maintain my tough facade re: leaving on Thursday. For now.
