On The Triumphant Return of Do 1 Thing

I paid a bill that I've been putting off for weeks! It was not very expensive, but it involved finding an actual envelope, a real life stamp, and a physical mailbox.

On I Can't Do Everything, But I Can Do 1 Thing

@WWVMD Thanks for reminding me that I never got a deposit back on my old apartment! Just called and the management company claimed I didn't leave a forwarding address...which I did. Fingers crossed we get our money back!

On I Can't Do Everything, But I Can Do 1 Thing

The phone line at my office mysteriously stopped working days ago, and I finally called Optimum to come fix it. It was not as difficult as I thought to get a human on the line!

On Do All The Things You've Been Putting Off (Syke Just Do 1 Thing)

I called the Secretary of State to see where my absentee ballot was! I guess I panicked early because they haven't even sent them out yet.

On Too Busy To Wash Your Hair

I have curly hair (the type that looks terrible if you dry brush it), so I use dry shampoo when my hair gets messed up during the day to make it look semi-presentable at night...not because my hair is dirty. The company I work for, though, makes recovery bags for cancer patients, and we put dry shampoo in with the toiletries for all the people who can't get out of bed.

On Where Have All the Ice Cream Trucks Gone?

I, too, thought all the ice cream trucks were gone. That is until a Mr. Softee drove down the street I work, which I thought was very odd since the only thing on my street are warehouses and body shops. I did buy a milkshake though, so maybe Mr. Softee's route makes sense after all.

On Let's Talk About: Performance Reviews

I was in the middle of writing a comment about how I work at a super new start-up that's so young we don't even have performance reviews, but I just got an email from the chief strategy officer about a company-wide performance review on August 23. Guess I'll find out how I'm doing in two weeks.
