Late last week I wrapped up a few major projects at work that had consumed my life for the last 3 months. As I walked into my office this morning, I looked around and hardly recognized it. I sat down in front of my computer and pulled up my calendar - no meetings. I looked to the left of my keyboard where last week I had 20+ multi-colored Post-it's lined up, filled with all my barely legible To-Do's - nothing there. I looked around my chair where last week I had so many stacks of files you could hardly see the ground - they were all gone. "Where is all my shit?!" I thought in a moment of panic.
In that moment it was as if I had blacked-out for the last 3 months. I couldn't remember anything I was supposed to accomplish at work today, let alone remember what I just finished last week. And it was more than just forgetting work things - what had I accomplished personally? Who had I been hanging out with? Have I seen any movies lately? Did I go on any trips? Did I read any books? Go out to eat? Go to church? Who the hell knows?!
I checked my calendar again - it's March 21, 2011 - in case you were wondering. I was. Oh, and it's a Monday. I knew I was in the right place because my desktop background is a pic of my lovelies:

Okay, deep breath. Clearly, I needed coffee. I went and grabbed a mug, managed to sit, drink and think. I know everyone says, "Oh my, how time flies!" Yeah, yeah, yeah. We all know. It's true. I'm sure you all can attest to the same thing. This post, and the next to follow are mostly for me to mentally organize what, where and how I've spent my time. If you are interested, continue on. But please, don't expect to be blown away by anything too exciting - then again, who knows? Maybe I managed to fit in a trip to some exotic place... ha, ya right...
