piploverI had a pretty good day at work. I dressed up in my flapper costume and had so many compliments! It was fun to dance around and make my tassels move, lol.
There were some wonderful costumes, but cameras aren't permitted in the building, so I wasn't able to capture any of them. One person came as Ursula from The Little Mermaid, and there was even a full out ball gown from Cinderella. Amazing.
I spent most of the day roving, being an answer person to help out the new associates. I had interviewed for a seasonal position where all I would do is answer questions and help make guideline and fact sheets, but they had 26 people for 7 slots, and they chose people who had more experience than me. However, the interviewer was really nice, and told me that if I applied again the next time the position rolled around I would probably get it, I just needed a bit more time.
I wore heels today thinking that I would spent most of my time sitting, so now my feet are swollen, lol. It's ok, though, as I have tomorrow off and plan on just relaxing, carving my pumpkin and making roast pumpkin seeds, and then maybe going to a party. The boy I sit next to asked me out to one, and I'm a bit hesitant, but think it would be fun.
Also, found out that Thing has apparently broken up with his new girlfriend, which totally made me laugh. I figured it wouldn't last long, and it looks like I was right. I do feel a bit sorry for him, but not much. He was asking some of the people on my team for a recommendation for a good bar so he could celebrate being single again. I take that to mean in guy speak he wanted to go drown his sorrow at not getting in the foreseeable future.
Am I mean that this also amuses me? I know I'm not being very nice, but he hurt me, and it's nice to see him hurt a little, too.
Not much going on. Take care all.

He is obviously not ready for prime time, and is incapable at this point of sustaining a relationship for long. I imagine he will do this a few more times with a few more girls before he wises up-- if he ever does. Some guys don't ever learn.

I hope he does wise up, because he has the potential to make someone very happy. I just want him to hurt a little between then, lol.
