Hello 2014

-
Well hello 2014 and so long 2013.  For me, 2013 had a good amount of ups and downs.  On the positive side, I spent more time with my family then most probably spend in a decade (that could be a negative too, but we're starting off positive around here).  I completed my Master's Degree coursework.  I went on a ton of fantastic vacations, saw some great shows, and spent a lot of time in the sun drinking with friends.  It wasn't a year without challenges either.  There were changes in ones I love's health, relationships, and in my job.

But enough about 2013.  I hate odd numbers so I have big hopes for 2014.  My goal (I decided about 8 minutes ago) is to blog each day.  Since I'm already behind by 11 days, I'm devoting the next 10 posts to things that I'm looking forward to and goals for 2014.

Personally, I've never been a huge fan of resolutions but I do know that when I set goals, I am a lot more likely to achieve them.  

My hope is this will be in an insight into my crazy brain.  

PS.  Did you know I was rocking the Twitter fail whale in 1983?

So I'm on the phone at about 3:15 doing an exit interview with yet another disgruntled employee who is leaving. I always shut the door to my office when I'm on calls like this because, frankly, I work with retards who will stand in front of me the entire time I'm on the phone to wait for me to finish. I'm so glad that working in HR, my workspace is private and people respect the confidentiality of my role. Awesome! As I said, I'm on the phone, and my door is shut. One co-worker barges in and tried to get my attention. I point to the phone and mouth "come back later". A second one does the same thing, followed by a third, fourth, fifth, and finally sixth. Through my window that looks into the hallway in my office, I see that a small group has gathered. Finally, Julia (the girl I share an office with) goes out into the hallway to see what's going on. Five seconds later, she walks back into the office, shuts the door, glances at me, and sits down...

Not much going on, too early for March Madness, NESN doesn't put enough Spring Training on TV, so instead, I'm going to post something that I randomly came across today and thoroughly enjoyed. (promise I'll have a good post Monday morning!) A Nation's destination: Destiny By Bill Simmons Page 2 I woke up thinking about the Red Sox. Answered e-mails, read the paper, showered, shaved, never stopped thinking about the Red Sox. Found that I was so excited, I could barely keep a thought in my head. Skipped through the day's routine doing ordinary things, thinking the entire time, "Holy crap, my life could be completely different in eight hours." Now it's time to join the ranks of the normal baseball fans. Thank God. Is this how parents feel when they're about to have a baby? Like nothing has changed, but everything's about to change? That's how I felt yesterday. The Red Sox were about to win the World Series. And I was about to become Just Anoth...
