Has it really been almost 6 months?

2009-12-05T12:23:03Z

I just happened to revisit my Vox account and realized that I've been absent for almost 6 months. That means it's been 6 months since I sat down to just freely write. And that's 6 months too long. I wish I could say that life has been really blah...

On saying "No"

2009-07-23T14:22:39Z

Sometimes, the last thing I want to say is "No." We're having a Sample Sale at work tomorrow morning. Before I started working here, the proceeds from the sale went right back to the company and paid for miscellaneous department expenses. (It was...

HE DID IT!!!

He did it! He did it! He did it he did it he DID it!!! In case you missed the big announcement on Facebook yesterday (as many of you may well have, since I'm not FB friends with many of my Vox neighbors): THE BOY SAT ON - AND PEED IN - THE POTTY!...

Ulterior motives

2009-06-22T17:58:06Z

Generally speaking, I'm a very trusting person. Some might even say I'm too trusting. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. I like to believe the best about people. I like thinking that people have genuinely good hearts and generous sou...

A fly, PETA? Seriously?

2009-06-18T13:19:16Z

When I walked in the break room this morning for my daily consumption of milk and coffee (mostly milk with a splash of coffee for flavor, I guess), CNN's bottom ticker said that PETA is asking President Obama to be kinder to flies. Apparently, th...

Oh, hush already!

2009-06-15T14:00:53Z

I wish I could understand what the fuss is about. No, I'm not talking about the Lakers trouncing the Magic in the NBA Finals (though, can I just say I'm so glad that is finally over?). I'm talking about listening to my coworkers constantly compla...

Ready to scream...

2009-06-10T14:48:43Z

There's a big event happening in a couple of weeks at work. Well, technically not at work, but it's a work event that's taking place in London. Anyway. In better days, there wouldn't have been as big of a focus on sales and inventory levels, blah...

World of Warcraft

(Okay, this is totally random unless you've been following my work on Examiner.com, in which I totally geeked out earlier this week and gushed about Project Natal.* But I digress.) I'm not a huge gamer by any means, but I do have a friend (or thr...

My poor, neglected blog...

2009-06-04T15:35:22Z

And my neglected Vox friends! I'm so sorry I've been such a bad neighbor. It's like I went away on vacation and didn't tell anyone, but also neglected to set my sprinklers to at least water the lawn periodically. Bad, bad Eileen. Anyway, work has...

Can I get some feedback?

2009-05-30T03:22:04Z

I'm in dire need of some help! I just started writing for Examiner.com as the Orlando Working Moms Examiner. I've printed out an editorial calendar to give me some ideas on what to write, but it's been a little bumpy. Yes, I know I've been writin...
