I just got sucked into the season finale of More to Love. Never watched an episode before...never cared to, either. This formula really works! I swore I'd give up The Bachelor like a billion seasons ago, yet I keep tuning in. Why?!?!? As for this plus-sized version, I think I want him to choose the Iranian chick/model....we shall see!
Soo...what's new with me? The weekend was a blur. We spent some time with Matt's family on Friday and Saturday. Then on Sunday we had brunch at the Morton Arboretum and walked around for a few hours. The weather was beautiful, and we got to just talk things over, focus on each other, really enjoy each others company. We finally came to an agreement on visiting my family - he is finally really planning to take a trip to Massachusetts with me!! Looks like we'll be going over Thanksgiving break, if he gets that Mon-Wed off. I also need to request that time off. We need a whole week plus bookend weekends for the trip, since we'll be driving there. I am psyched!!
Things are better at work, as far as the co-worker is concerned. I am trying not to focus on it so much. I am trying to see things from her perspective, and deep down I know she has the students' and center's best interest at heart. Being direct usually works with her, so that's the plan from here on out.
A bunch of other crap is going on at work, though. Poor communication between the high school counselors and our records department has caused major friction. Because I am center director, of course I am stuck in the middle. I have pandering to both sides, to appease the records department, which works closely with my boss, and to appease the counselors, who help decide whether or not to renew our contract at the end of the year. I feel like right now all my eggs are in one basket; the current plan is to update my resume with my new certification info and start applying to public school jobs (a middle ESL position was just posted!) ASAP. I don't want to still be doing this same job 10 years from now. As much as I love it, I know inertia can take over and derail even the best laid plans.
Well, I better go....Luke is about to propose!!

Who'd he choose? I watched the first episode but couldn't stomach all the girls' self-loathing. "I can't believe he is talking to ME...no one ever talks to me because I'm fat!" No, it's because you're really annoying. I can't stand the girls on any of those shows.
He chose the Iranian girl...the really pretty one who looks sort of like Salma Hayek. She's a model, which I'm sure had nothing to do with his decision, lol. I liked her, though....the other girl (Melissa) was kind of annoying/fake.
