Starting Monday, March 30, after 6:00 P.M. (MST), items will be available for online bids at Ebay. You can reach eligible items in the sidebar of each page at www.projectbookbabe.com. The sidebar says Ebay auctions and then beneath that in red is a list of the auctions that are available for bidding. Each item will be available for seven days only, so be sure to bid quickly! Check back each Monday and Thursday after 6:00 PM (MST) for new listings.

It looks like they will be putting items up a few at a time so be sure and check back often :)

Whew!! I just dodged a bullet that I didn’t even see coming.

Since last December I have been working exclusively on one account at this ad agency. I have been the media specialist on a four person team out here in the client’s regional office (HQ for both agency and client are in Ft. Lauderdale). The client is an automotive one so you can imagine the financial situation… but since our region was WAY understaffed, we all figured we were ok. Nope! Yesterday afternoon they told us that the two account supervisors are being laid off. In addition I found out that the client is no longer going to be paying for my services.

How do I still have a job? Well, apparently two media people in our main FL office recently quit. They are very happy with the job that I have done so the powers-that-be lobbied to keep me on as a “remote” media person. They are going to adjust my work load to include other clients and other markets. That also means that I will no longer be based in this client’s offices so I will be getting an office set up at home. I will still be doing some work for this client and will likely be in here one or two days a week but the majority of the time I will be working from home. *no commute dance of joy*

Shortly after I left my last job, they had company-wide lay-offs and the only reason one of my friends kept their job was because I had quit. Now the universe has seen fit to return the favor. Someone else quitting means I get to keep my job.  I am also incredibly grateful to those who lobbied to keep me here. THANK YOU UNIVERSE!!!! I’m thinking positive that things will keep looking good.

Clients are cutting expenses all over the place so any extra positive thoughts you can send my way would be appreciated.

Happy birthday

Ok, so after much prodding and poking from a couple friends, I have finally joined tribe. Damn the peer pressure!

Top o' the morning to ya!

What a great weekend! Today, I am tired, but it's a good kind of tired. I am already having so much fun at Faire and the season hasn't even started yet. I really can't wait!!! 

Gotta say though, getting older kinda sucks. My knees are bugging me today due to the time spent on the ground yesterday screwing wood, I mean putting up fencing... ;-)

Tonight i'm heading out to the Brit in Pasadena. Sounds like a great time! Don't know how long I will be there but I hope to see as much of the show as possible. I will be playing taxi driver for Skipjack's wife so once she is ready to go, I must leave. See you there?

Uh, oh... I better get back to work... Anyway, have a great St. Patrick's day. Stay safe and don't drink and drive!

 

I've been out of touch with LJ since about the 1st... Anything interesting happen while I was away? It may take me a bit to get through everything so if there is something I should check out, let me know.

My sister was in town last week so I took time off to spend with her - AWESOME!! It was great to spend some quality time with her. It was also great to be so unplugged for the week. You should try it sometime :-)
