New job
Wow! Having a new job and a new puppy sure fills life right up! I haven't been this busy (or overwhelmed) in a while!
It's mostly good stress, though. I'm starting something new and I've got a fresh start, which is great. I'm feeling really good about the work I've done this week (even though I haven't technically been working 8 hours a day...still getting used to the whole "working from home" thing) and I think I'm really going to like the people I work with.
Speaking of the people I work with, my new boss is about three or four years older than me and totally 100% H-O-T. This, of course, is bad because:
a) he's my boss, and
b) I'm married
I haven't really been attracted to anyone (besides my husband) since I've been married. So it'll be interesting to see how it feels to be attracted to someone else who is going to play a rather large role in my life. I'm guessing that the attraction won't last long because the "boss" role will take over. But we are going to be spending a lot of time traveling together, so I'm going to have to try to keep some distance.
It's funny--I was afraid that it would be seen as shameful that I'm attracted to someone besides my partner. But when I've told people (i.e. my sponsor and a close friend), they both reacted with a "duh!" expression. I mean, of course I'm going to be attracted to other people--it's only natural! It's what I do with that attraction that matters.
Anyway, enough about that. Mara (the puppy) is doing well. She's making good progress with the housetraining and we are just loving having her. I can't BELIEVE the impact that having a puppy has on my life and my relationship. It's like having a baby! We are up at all hours of the night (or at least, we were for the first week), we are constantly cleaning up piss and shit and sometimes vomit (nothing can gross me out anymore), we are always worried about her eating, sleeping, playing habits, and we are constantly trying to socialize her to people and animals by taking her to playgroups.
Oh my God we are such yuppies!! HA!
Alright, it's definitely time (past time, really) for me to get to work. More later.
