randomness

what a crazy few weeks! first it was the week at SDP in DC (good except for the 13 hour days every single day), then the management retreat in Richmond (seeing George from the Apprentice, Larry King, and Rudy Giuliani speak was worth the hotel's stale chips and tiny towels), then Steph's bachelorette party (best game ever: dirty bachelorette scavenger hunt!), and then the topper of all-- the wedding this weekend!

and, well, instead of rescheduling my CPCU test because I'm not ready (the RESPONSIBLE thing to do), I decided to take my paid days off this week and get my wedding errands done. and, well, every now and then I even study and make it worthwhile. wish me luck tomorrow!

but anyway, here are some random pics and links since I haven't posted in forever. :) enjoy!

First of all, by the time I left my work conference, if one more person said the phrases "drill down" or "root cause" to me, I could have screamed. My dad remedied the situation, though and sent me this link: the Random Corporate Buzzword Generator :) hours of cubicle fun!

Another fun link-- Speaking Philadelphian-- I just last night learned that "done work" is not a common thing to say! (as in, woohoo! I'm done work for the week!) And, just last month I learned that it is NOT normal to start a thought with "anymore" (as in, I used to go to Food Lion, but anymore it's just so dirty!) So anyway, the above link has one guy talking about how he never realized he talked any differently than anyone else. I can relate :) (but I will ALWAYS say bagel MY way!)
