The agency I work for hired a new Senior Vice President for the account I'm on. That they went outside and brought in fresh blood makes me happy. There have been rumblings that my client isn't happy with us, and if that's true, it's good to see that we aren't throwing in the towel and intend to fight for the business. Yea!
On the other hand, the previous Senior Vice President is still walking around. It's as if she's the only one who didn't get the memo welcoming the new guy.
Office life can be weird.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

1) My sister, my daughter ... She's my sister AND my daughter! Chinatown, a movie I've never seen its entirety, btw
2) I mean happy, like "Julie Andrews twirling around on a mountain top like a mental patient" kind of happy. The Sixth Sense
3) That's my problem! I'm an onion roll on a plate of bagels! Funny Girl
4) You're advertising's just dandy. Folk's'd never guess you don't have a thing to sell. Bonnie & Clyde
5) East is east and west is west, and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb ever will. Now tell me what you know. Animal Crackers
6) Leave the gun. Take the cannoli. The Godfather
7) Not a bit like Cagney. Help!
8) You still think you're the cutest little trick in shoe leather. Gone with the Wind
9) Story of my life. I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop. Some Like It Hot
10) Wouldn't it be lovely if we were old? We'd have survived all of this, and everything would be easy and uncomplicated ... like when we were young. The Way We Were
