Ponderings....

I was watching the Weather Channel this morning before work. They cut to an additional Weather Channel anchor person who had the following job title: Business Travel Analyst. That is a made up position if I have ever heard one. All the women does is tell you which city airports will experience delays. Does that really justify calling her an "analyst?" Shit, I can call Delta and find out if my flight from JFK to Hartsfield is delayed. From here on out, I want to be addressed as Betagirl, Business Travel Analyst.

My cat broke one of his canine teeth in half at some point this week.

The women at the snack shack near my office keeps encouraging me to buy fruit when I go in there. Normally, I walk out with a water or gatorade and a power bar. Occasionally, I will buy some chips or pretzels. Considering the plethora of crap offered at the university snack shack I think I do pretty well. At first, I thought she was just being a savvy sales person but then I noticed she wasn't forcing fruit down any other patrons' throats. What gives snack shack lady?

Monday was the boy's birthday. We did little to celebrate because the boy isn't too into making a big deal about his special day. We went out to eat and grabbed a drink and were home by 9:30 pm. We did have a party for him and L.O.L at the beginning of the month that was successful in all regards but I like to make a bigger deal out of birthdays than that. I dropped the ball on this one though. I didn't even leave him a card when I went to work that morning. I didn't even manage to order his birthday present until Friday so he had nothing to open on Monday. I accept the crappy girlfriend award and hope not to receive it for future birthdays.
