i've got time for a quick update...

I've got two hours left at work and I think I might die somewhere in there. And that's after a huge amount of tea found its way into my system (my eyes are actually a little blurry from the caffeine). The only reason I'm sticking around is that I'm meeting a friend for drinks at 9. And I kind of played hooky from work today to say goodbye to a friend who's moving away, so I really should bill some hours so that my day doesn't look completely emaciated.
But I thought I should let everyone know how I'm doing. I'm doing pretty well. I saw the IT boy on Monday night and had a really great time. I, um, think I like him. But don't tell anyone... shhhh... Let's see, I also had a great dinner Monday night with two co-workers, saw an ex-co-worker last night for dinner (I think two hyphens are allowed in that instance right?) and actually went on a candidate lunch today. The candidate lunch is a good sign that I'm being truly integrated into the firm, which I have been busting my butt to do now for the past 6 months. I think the firm thinks I'm good, and that's all I need. I don't want to have to lateral again. At least not for a long while.
Not a whole lot else has been going on. I feel like I've been busy but it's been mostly low key stuff. No doubt Friday night will change all that since I will be going to yet another happy hour with the group from this site I've been alluding to for a while now. And I think IT boy and I will be making a small debut of sorts. We'll see. It's probably going to be very anti-climactic.
I think I've left things in a good place with the Palestinian. He hasn't really quite come out and asked me out so I can just be friendly and leave it at that. But if any of you spoke to me in the past year (I don't think I blogged about it), there was this guy and I called him the hand-holder. To say he was creepy is kind of an understatement. Well, he's back to messaging me on myspace. Ugh. I made it clear the last time around that I only wanted to be friends. He was okay with that. Let's hope he sticks to it. I can't deal with any more creepy men in my life.
Anyway, back to work. I'll check in again soon.
