I don't know what has been with me lately, but I've been in a funk. Honestly, I think it started after the Project Runway repeat last week. I feel like a little gray cloud is floating above my head. Maybe it is because the winter is holding on too long, I haven't seen the sun in days, I haven't been sleeping as hard as I should, and I'm putting in 11-hour days at work. Last week I found out that I am going to take over a few accounts from our Chicago office. It has kind of thrown a monkey wrench into the smooth process I used to know. So I have been trying to get up to speed on those accounts and make the transition as smooth as possible.
We started a fitness competition at work and that has been the talk of the office. We split up into groups of 8. I think as of now, there are 12 teams. We are supposed to track our activity, like working out, walking, and even housework counts. My team is called the "Huff and Puffs" and we are totally going to win. The Huff is the one guy on our team, Brad, and all the rest of us girls are the Puffs. The only problem with this whole thing is that my work out buddy (Sarah - grrr) is on another team. I guess we will just work out until someone faints - that is how competitive this whole thing is.
You know what I just thought of? I think I might know another thing contributing to my funk. It is hard to admit this, but I have become an avid watcher of Nancy Grace (ohh gasp!) in the recent months. I don't know what it is, but it is such a guilty pleasure to watch her at 8pm on the couch or at 10pm in bed. She is so feisty and I am fascinated by all the people who get so involved in her life. As some of you might know (but you won't admit it), Nancy recently had baby twins. They had some medical issues after they were born, which is the reason why every single person that calls in says, "Congratulations on your babies. I'm so happy for you. About that kidnapping..." For some reason it strikes me to be a very strange transition into the news stories. Babies. Harsh news stories. But back to my funk, Nancy Grace isn't exactly the most "positive" thing to watch, so maybe I should cut back.
Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, my little black cloud has inhibited me to do so. I feel like things are going to get better soon. Let's hope that my quick weekend getaway helps!

Well, I've been checking your blog about 12 times a day waiting for a new post, but am sorry to hear you're in a funk. In addition to Nancy Grace, maybe Christian from P. Runway may be contributing to your negative attitude (yeah, girl I said it). He's not the most optimistic person, ya know. At least the cry baby guy got kicked off last night, that makes everything better. Keep your chin up, buttercup. Tomorrow is FRIDAY!!
Here's something that should lift your spirits...Daylight Savings Time starts in a month!!! March 9 to be exact...surely that means there will be more daylight in the afternoons...that will be nice. Keep your sunny side up, up!
