Hi All,
I can't believe that Feb is almost over. And to top it off today it's going to be 60 degrees...with snow predicted towards the end of the week.
Work has slowed down alittle 10-12 hour days. I just have to get these darn audit request wrapped up and hopefully I'll be good to go!
Had a good weekend. Got my hair did. No longer a blonde - now back to my orginal hair color. Met up with Corey, JT, and Caroline for dinner Saturday night. I think my stomach was sore from laughing so much. Really just the visual of Corey running through DC, no shoes on in her PJ's, fighting crime, keeps replaying in my head (story that she told). But the highlight of the weekend was that we bought a new car! Well an SUV. We picked up our Toyota Highlander last night. It's pimped out. I've got to get use to such a big vehicle, but we love it. And I think Gordy does as well.
Enjoy the warm weather!

Jalapeno Fingers
Hi there,
It's been a busy few weeks. I've been working 13-14 hour days and as of last Friday I was on day 20 of working straight. Needless to say I'm tired!!! But there was some good news that came last week. I was finally promoted to a Director! So lots to celebrate now. I think Jim and I had already planned on how to spend the pay increase well before the promotion came.
Had a lovely weekend with Dipali and Sandra. Dip treated Sandra and I to a spa day at the Ritz. I felt like a princess! And then we celebrate Sandra's b-day party...a big surprise to her.
You might be wondering why the title to this blog. Well Jim and I have a super bowl dinner tradition. Unfortunately, even though we had the meal last night, I had to work most of the day (missed Corey's awesome get together :( ) and then spent majority of the super bowl taking down the Christmas tree.....yes my tree was still up....I'm embarassed to admit! The recipe is this pulled pork that you put jalapeno's and apricot jam on the pork. Well I used fresh jalapeno peppers and now I have the oils stuck under my nail bed. Not only is it burning my nail bed, but if I rub my eyes or touch my lips they start to burn.....jalapeno fingers....stay away!
Coming up this week Mom's b-day, Jim and I celebrate our engagement (we no longer celebrate V-day since we got engaged right around there) and hopefully some better work hours!!
Hope all is well!
