all this, with only a minor chance of side effects
finding a couple of quiet moments in the maelstrom that has become my life these past couple of weeks to check in and run down...
i've accepted a full-time position at Amgen, i've been working here for about 7 months as a contractor, and finally decided to take the plunge. keep your fingers crossed that my edges stay sharp, that i can resist the temptation to immediately couple up and breed...and that my laugh doesn't recede into a
muttering chortle as i join the ranks of a corporate behemoth.
in an effort to stave off the chances of this, i overleveraged myself a little and finally got...the mini. i justify this by reminding myself that it gets almost twice the gas mileage to fuel my hour-long commute, and i get to work just a little bit faster. well...a LOT faster. frankly, i only need two words to really justify my purchase. malibu canyon. *grin*
i'm also heading off to vegas with the girls for the weekend before my "official" start date. i figure this way i might have just enough debauchery in my system to get through the first few months with a wicked smirk whenever i get the urge to start peeking at co-workers ring fingers or cooing over babies or some crap.
wish me luck!
