Hey-heehee thanks for asking! Well, you know I am alive and survived. Haha

I was pretty exhausted yesterday. But my new boss took me out to lunch today. I'm still pretty exhausted. the place is beautiful though and they have everything.

I'm tired...I really wish I could have taken some time off in between jobs, but oh well.

I'm still in HR...but at a much larger firm. More $ too...which will have to do over intrinsic motivation for the meantime.

I've worked at such a small company for 5 years, that no being part of an iternational firm is strange. I almost forgot what it's like to be the new girl. But I keep telling myself that change is good and I'm pretty good at readjusting a lot.

Yea, you are an Aquarian and I think it might be challenging in the beginning but it will be more stimulating and more opportunistic. *hopes that last one is a word...*

Heehee:

Pronunciation: -tü-'nis-tik, -tyü-
Function: adjective

Yep, it's a word!

Thanks..now I just have to learn to readjust to stupid daylight savings and getting up earlier all at the same time. I figure I'll either catch up on my sleep this weekend or on the plane next week. lol

Luckily, they kind of revamped a lot of the HR department, so there are a handful of new people there too. I'm the last one to come on board. (Last In, First Out? LOL)
