Footprints on the Moon

The company I currently work for has a love affair with consultants. They hire consultants for everything. Often, these people are former employees that retire, take a few weeks off, and come right back in a different capacity! Seriously. One guy “retired”, took a 3 day weekend and was back at work. (Don’t tell anyone, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this penchant for consultants, and meetings, and committees is a large reason many proposals never make it to completion). Since I’m spending so much time answering the phone these days, I decided that when I’m ready to move on, I’ll just come back and do some telecom consulting. Wait, I guess that would probably require me to know how to FIX the phone, not just use it. Nevermind then… I’m sure there’s something I could do. One of our phone guys is leaving at the end of the week, and I can’t help but wonder if I’m going to see him back in the relatively near future!

Let’s play a little game shall we? Ha, kidding… I took a picture yesterday that I want to share with you, but in order for you to really appreciate it, you have to first see an older picture.

This is a picture of my cat, Pudge, on September 4, 2006. I remember thinking how cute he was curled up in the sink, and how big he was getting!

Cute huh? Now… you can really appreciate the picture I took last night. This is the same cat, same sink.

OMG! He’s huge!! When did my tiny baby get so BIG?!

Alot of times when I’m “window shopping” on the internet, I find things for around the house, and I always think of my mom. Probably because I don’t have a house, or a yard, but that doesn’t stop me from looking at things for them! Earlier, I was looking at yard markers online, and there are some cute ones. Obviously I have no yard to mark, but my mom’s got one! I think her dogs would probably just dig something like that up. Her house is, I think, fairly clearly marked, so I guess she doesn’t need one anyways. I hate it when you can’t find something you’re looking for because they don’t have a clearly visible address– and you can’t even tell if you’re heading the right direction because no one else has their house marked either!

Well, I haven’t posted a picture for Self Portrait Sunday in quite awhile… I either forget, or I remember about 5 minutes before bedtime when I look like hell, and don’t want to take a picture of myself. Or I’m unhappy with some aspect of what I look like (usually my weight). This week I decided to take a picture and post it anyways because I am who I am right now, even if I do think my double chin has grown a little too much.

I know I’m posting this on Monday morning, but I did take this picture on Sunday afternoon. I got it off my camera last night, and cropped it, but then I realized how late it was getting and that I needed to get to bed. So you get my picture this morning

If you’d like to participate in Self Portrait Sunday, just snap a picture of yourself, post it to your blog, and head over to DigiCass to share with the rest of us!
