Ok yesterday came about as close to being the perfect day as any mere mortal can expect to experience. Allow me to explain. It started with me finding a treasure trove of research info (untapped, mind you) that has made my life at work significantly easier than usual. Then I walked down to Summer Winds Nursery and picked up my third variety of basil (sweet basil, actually) and a little chocolate mint scented geranium. Score! Got back and was immediately called into my boss' office where he praised me rather outrageously (for a dour Hungarian anyway *G*) and gave me a promotion and significant raise. It was all I could do not to dance back to my cube, hee!

I then used my secret Yenta skillz to point a friend at his perfect woman, and I was right, she's apparently flawless }:) Damn I'm good.

Then I was off to drool over Vin with [livejournal.com profile] technocowboy and [livejournal.com profile] cyranocyrano, we had much fun giggling over the brainless cheese that is XXX. Since I'd received a copy of the soundtrack from the gals at work I could happily share it and I got to suck on a white cherry Icee which helped make my night complete. Hey, I like Icees and movies are the only place I get to enjoy them these days.

In bed way too late last night, but I got some quality, if not quantity sleep so I'm actually ok today. Well, all right I'm supplementing with a Frappaccino, but everybody needs a pick me up sometimes.

Oh, and for anyone who's into astrology I highly recommend http://www.astrologyzone.com/, cool, detailed month long forecasts are available there for free. Mine was right on target predicting financial success for the month.

Wow, I still can't quite believe I've gone from "getting by" to actually making money. I even doubled my 401K investment. Heh, this is so cool!

Crunches: Uh, well I kinda took the night off

Not quite close on the quote, but I like the answer *G*
And you just pick a weekend day and lunch is definitely on me. As for Yenta-ing, I can wait, dear, for now. But if I find the perfect woman for you I might just be compelled to act on it.

Do you really hate that perfect girl so much?
Don't be that cruel to her. Let her fly free and unscarred.

Oh, honey, I wish. I have this feeling that Mr. Needs To Not Be Allowed To Wear Clothing is far out of my grasp. Ergo, you and your Mad Yenta Skillz [tm] are needed. :)

But I thought...

You want Ellie to use her Mad Yenta Skillz (tm) to hook you up with your perfect woman?

Wow, XXX really -did- change your life.

Congrats on promotion/raise (retroactive raise!)!

And, how do I sign up for Mad Yenta Action? I'm dying to know the success story...
