So that is definitely what I am doing because I am having a very good week! :)
On Monday I got my iPhone, which I love and adore. It really is my favorite thing. It is so useful and so fun....ah! I love it! I also took my computer into the Apple store on Monday to get my admin privileges back and the Genius' just pressed some buttons, entered some code and Blanca (my computer) was good as new!
On Tuesday I finally got up the courage to ask my boss for a promotion. I didn't ask to do anymore than the TONS of stuff I already do but rather to get a title and compensation that is more accurate for what I do there. She agreed so I got an immediate and pretty significant raise and permission to try to figure out a fitting job title. Also on Tuesday I installed some design programs that I got from my friend so now I have all the programs that use at work on my home computer. Very very cool and I am way excited about it.
On Wednesday I was super busy at work trying to finish lots of projects before the end of the year and I got to hang out with my friends and watch Project Runway which always make a good day. :)
On Thursday I got to finally find time to go for a run...well, more like a jaunt on the elliptical. Not sure if I mentioned it here but I hurt my foot on my half marathon. Nothing too serious (I think) but it hurt pretty bad to walk on it for the first week and definitely flared up again yesterday on the elliptical. I thought I had just bruised the bone but I think I may have broken or torn something after all...nothing too big though - only hurts now when I walk or stand for a long time. So I guess that wasn't the best but it felt good to get back in the gym. I also found time to play with my iPhone and my new design programs.
Today I had to go into Sport Chalet to get my 5 year review (can you believe I have been there that long?!) and I got a raise there too! It made me laugh a bit that I got a raise there because I haven't worked there in about 3 weeks and am not work again until Dec 8th. Now I am making more than my department head!
So good week so far, huh? Oh yeah, and today we finally figured out what my new job title will be at GTI...Creative Projects Manager & the Voice of GTI...as my boss, Michelle, said "it is fun, creative, and accurate - just like you!" I am "the Voice" because everyone has to go through me to get to anyone in the company...and my voice is literally the one they hear on the phone messages. :)
Tomorrow I have my last GMAT prep class. I am taking the GMAT in two weeks so it is crunch time. I'll be spending most of my time now studying for that. Also tomorrow Tom and Tracey are going to the BYU vs. SDSU football game so I will be watching the kiddos while they are there. It'll be fun to hang out with Hayden, Danica and Alyssa and I am glad I have the time to do so.
We are getting some MUCH needed rain in San Diego right now, which is awesome. But I hope it doesn't rain for the game tomorrow - that's no fun. I'll be at home studying tonight and trying to stay off the very dangerous roads. Since we don't get rain often the roads are SUPER slick when it actually does rain so there are lots of spin-outs and accidents.
Anyway - off to study!
