Dream and Dinner Update

Well, it looks like my job is still safe for now. Last night went well, definitely awkward at first, hanging out with your notably older boss after work is kind of like hanging out with a teacher after high school...

Anyway, I was bad and drank a bit to settle myself, and dinner ended up being pretty fun. Still no mention of the break-up and possible legal drama going on, but at least she was very nice and understanding about my TTC, her brother and his wife have apparently had a lot of IF issues.

I told her about the PCOS when I had to start going to multiple Dr appointments and she was starting to wonder what was up. Anyway, I never said, "yes we are trying right now," I just said, well we weren't planning trying immediately after we got married at first, just thought we would see what happened. But then when we learned it might take longer or might not happen at all for us, we were going to take whatever we can get.

Maybe that was a little TMI for the workplace, but, I'm glad it is out in the open.

I also learned after riding in a taxi with her that I am not the only person she treats like crap when she is agitated or feels embarrassed. (Poor nameless taxi driver, I feel your pain)

On to the dream I had last night, which I think is too good not to share:

I am at work, on GP instead of working, as usual. All of a sudden I see this sn that seems waaay too familiar posting some newb question, with a ticker in the siggy that says 2weeks and 3 days PG. Yep, so there is my boss who is in her 40's, 2w and 3d? (I realized the ridiculousness of 2 weeks 3 days while dreaming and was sooooo agitated, WTF) PG, and somehow found out about my message board.

Anyway, I went on to dream that this is why she and her BF broke up, she is KU with some other man's child, and he split. She is quiting her job to be a SAHM living with her baby daddy, the chef at the restaurant we went to last night whom she is good friends with IRL but in my dream was a doctor without borders. I was basically getting her position in the company, which would be a significant pay increase but would also mean I am strapped with a bunch of responsibility I do not want at a job I already strongly dislike. By the end of my dream she went into a strong "nesting" syndrome and started to overhaul our entire office, painting it blindingly white and making it look like a computer lab where I used to study in college. Then she stole my keyboard and told me I would just have to make it work without one, she needed it for wall art, she was going to make the keys into a wreath.

And that's when I woke up.


TGIF!!!

    Bonding with the boss is always muy awkward. Glad you had a cocktail to take the edge off.
