Flu Season

I got a job! I'm the new receptionist for Cameron Management in downtown Houston, skyline district. I love it. I work closely with 4 people, with another office on another floor with another 8 or so people who are all very nice and personable. It's a commercial real estate firm headquartered in Houston and I am so lucky to have gotten this job. I'm a temp right now but if all goes well and I keep learning quickly I may land an interview for a permanent position which would be incredible! It's what I've always wanted to do, sitting at a desk with my own computer, phone, office email, mug-o-coffee, greeting people as they walk in, transfering calls and taking messages, not everyone's cup of tea, but for some reason it really excites me. I love the corporate world and dressing nicely every day, taking lunch breaks and coffee breaks. Call me weird, I don't know.

It just sucks because my first week (last week) I had to call in sick Friday because I was hit hard with the flu Thursday evening and the last thing I wanted to do was call in sick, especially the first week on the job. Whatever.

It's Valentine's Day and my Valentine is about 800 miles away from me :( Thank God for FaceTime!

I hope everyone has a happy, love and fun filled Valentine's Day, single or taken it's a day dedicated to love, friendship, happiness and it's an excuse to wear pink to the office!
(and just think, if you're lonely on Valentine's Day this year at least you're not coming home to this:)
