Just Friends?!

Two jobs ago, I was working as an employment specialist at a nearby town. I went out to lunch a couple of times with an employer that I liked, but I never allowed it to go any further than that, because he was an employer. I just felt that it would be unethical.

On October 1st, I was transferred to a different location as a Youth Counselor. Unfortunately, I had a woman boss who was an idiot and left me all alone in the dark with no direction at all and I had a coworker who got all of her friends to email my boss about everything I was doing or not doing. Dont you just hate coworkers who get pleasure out of stabbing you in the back just to remain loyal to their friend?! Jealous dogs. 

So on October 31st, I left the company I had been working for since 1999, and I started a new job working with the schools. When I was sitting at our last meeting, I had a suspicion about my boss. He took me by surprise as he talked about himself. He seems so responsible and so family oriented, all the qualities that I have looked for in a man were all wrapped up within this one man. Wow! I found the needle in the haystack, but there is no attraction, we just dont click, and he is married. The suspicion came when he said that he has seven brothers.

The employer and I have continued to have telephonic conversations. I really didnt want to know, but I asked him to name his brothers. Yes, you guessed it! My boss is the employer's brother. How could that be? They are so different. My boss is a little man with no butt. The employer is over six feet and so funny. It almost makes me feel like I walked into the movie Twins. Talk about a small world! Does this mean that the employer and I are destined to be nothing more than friends?!

My mum and my brother did not show up for Thanksgiving tonight. I guess she meant it when she said that she wasnt coming. She must be really angry. That explains the rotten apples and rotten tomatoes she brought me last week; huh? Oh, well, I was getting too stressed about her coming over anyway.

This Thanksgiving, I did something different. I cooked the turkey in one of those bags. It cooks at a higher temperature than the traditional way, so it was done faster. It felt weird not to baste. I can see why some people complain that their turkey is too dry if they are cooking it at that high a temperature. Personally, I enjoy cooking my turkey the old fashioned way. I think the bags were invented for people who dont know how to bake a turkey. It just seems sad to put the bird in the bag and forget about it. How can you add the special ingredient (love) if you just forget about it?! Personally, I think it tastes greasy instead of juicy, which isnt very healthy. Next year, I will not use the bag.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope everybody had a Happy Thanksgiving,

Win =.)

P.S. I didnt eat very much today. That's two days in a row that I have been in control of limiting my night-time eating. Hooray for moi.
