Here is a little lesson: don’t drink three bottles of water right before bed. But you’re smart, so you probably already knew that.

Here is a little lesson: don’t drink three bottles of water right before bed. But you’re smart, so you probably already knew that. It’s all good … I’m editing video anyway for the Maundy Thursday performance I was in. Sounds spectacular. Of course, I was singing in it, so that probably had something to do with it.
It seems like only yesterday I was moving … and now, I’m being forced to move again. Now, now, don’t worry … it’s not what you think.
On The Apprentice, The Donald, to shake things up a bit, does what he calls a “Corporate Reshuffle.” He does it to make the teams even, to make things run more smoothly. Executives like to do this now and again, for “efficiency,” don’t ask me why. It’s like a game of 52-card pickup…and the employees are the cards. Like the song says, it’s for the “almighty dollar.”
UBOC did a corporate reshuffle of sorts … so tomorrow at 3:00 p.m., I get a pack of my stuff and move to another desk. It’s not horrible; definitely not the end of the world. But we all know how well I deal with change. My boss, who I’ve worked with for three years, will not be my boss anymore; I’ll be working under a new manager. All the underwriters that I’ve worked with will be on the other side of the building, with only brief interactions when I have questions on a file. It’s like the end of an era; it’s the only work environment I’ve ever known since I started working for the bank. It’s definitely sad, but I know it’ll be okay. Aside from the sadness, I think the most annoying thing is having to move all my crap, which is quite plentiful.
On a happier note, Brian (being the lucky jerk that he is), will be heading to paradise on Sunday. He travels to the Hawaiian islands to participate in two bowling competitions; one in all Oahu and the other one in Honolulu (I believe-if I’m wrong, I’m sure he’ll correct me.) I had planned on going back when this scheme was conceived, but at the time I did not believe I had the financial resources to participate in such a venture. What a fool! Maybe next time. Tomorrow, I shadow Brian after work in some “practice time” in preparation for his upcoming tournaments. I hope to get some footage and a few words from the man himself, for NGS News.
Well, I’m off to dreamland. Peace.
