Cinco de Mayo FUN! 5-5-2011

<p><strong>Fun:</strong>  I'm going to be an Auntie again today!  Am impatiently waiting for news from the hospital.  My baby sister is in for a Csection for her 2nd and as with the first, they did not find out what they are having.  So I'm dying over here!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I love all the kid pics too.  Yesterday and today.  I hope we continue to see them posted here!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I may need to rustle me up a margarita tonight.  Any excuse, right?  <span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I keep thinking how the board has waxed and waned over the years.  That's a great group from the Pig - I wish all were still regular posters here. </p>

<p>Hola!  I'm here to ask for good vibes.  Not for me, but for GoV, who has a third interview today for a job that could be very promising, interesting, challenging, and fun.  If you have any good job vibes to spare, please send them to him at 2 p.m. today.  Thanks!!</p>

<p><strong>Maureen</strong> - I bet you are looking FAB - even sans the preferred belt. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>NCRG - If I ever heard of a good reason to have a margarita, the addition of a new one to the family is certainly a reason to celebrate!  I love that they don't know if it's a bambino or bambina!</p>

<p>Go <strong>Gov</strong> Go!!!</p>

<p>perfect timing to get in on the jobby-job vibes</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Feel better, Timr!</p>

<p>I just had my first twist cone from the local ice cream drive up thingy for the year.  That makes it summer in my mind, even if the weather isn't fully cooperating.  Now I have to keep it as a special treat, so that I can continue the quest back to the skinny me from the picture.  Or run a lot more, I guess!</p>
<p> </p>

<p> Gooooo GoV!</p>

<p>how is it possible that pic is from just 4 years ago???</p>

<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<strong>GoV</strong>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</p>

<p>oooo GOV!!! good luck!</p>

<p>I'm having my own job termoil right now.  I got an offer today that was so far below what I was thinking it was going to be I'm completely shocked.  It's below what I make now but not by much, so far it seems that the work environment will be much better and I actually really want the job.  I'm just in shock.  So I guess I will probably take it and be moving in with Craig in 2 weeks. </p>

<p>Big news <strong>Wippy</strong>...yay!!!!</p>

<p>Wippy, can you counter?  Also...CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p><strong>Wippy</strong>, are you going to counter at all?  If it's anything like here it's much easier to get more money up front than asking for a raise later.</p>

<p>I did counter a couple of times and they came back at my original request and gave me overtime. So I accepted the position and while I'm not up and salary I'm not losing any either! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm so happy!!</p>
