Last nights Cocktail hour Christmas do was beyond boring. I did meet a couple more of JP's co-workers but man that was a boring hour and a half. I can safely say I won't be doing that again.
I did make my 7 Layer Dip for work. It's the only thing I can make that my co-workers will actually eat. Very odd. Also passed out the few gifts I was giving. There are too many people and the majority are in Lease Records and I don't know them.
So a few presents and the dip for everyone.
Tomorrow would have been the posh dinner out but since I've been dis-invited I have been invited to my Aunt & Uncle's for fresh homemade Pad Thai. Suck it CP bosses! Fresh Pad Thai is better than a fancy dinner out with you! Hahaha!
JP is actually jealous that he's missing out on the noodles.
So tonight I have to wrap their presents. Easy enough as I got shirts for my Uncle and jewlery for my Aunt.

As awesome as the concert was....
that's how crap-tacular this Monday morning has been.
Let's just say I totally embaressed my husband on Friday night and it was worth every single solitary glorious second of it. He didn't know what a fan I am. I warned him.
They did much better this go around as they didn't play the entire new album, but a few and a few from Astonaut which of course had to be Sunrise... my fav.
By the end JP had to admit that even though "he was never into them" that Simon can still sing. My question was, "Then how come you know all the songs?!"
Oh well. Saturday was spent sleeping in to get over staying out so late. I ran into Debs in the Ladies Room so we met up in Katy at Baker's. Earlier JP kept getting text messages from Sally saying, "I SEE YOU SECRET DURANIE!" Turned out she was in the balcony behind us. Too funny!
Rest of the weekend was quiet. I did find out that wives and girlfriends have been "dis-invited" to the posh Wednesday night dinner. I really don't care, but it is very very rude. Fine they feel they need to save money... so change it to a posh steak LUNCH. Dinner's like this, I've always found rude and too old school-whiskey-and-cigar-lady-popping out of a cake-Mad-Meny-boy's club. But just my opinion.
Work stunk instantly... I love how I'm some how expected to magically know full ownership of everything in the State... and no one else is. It's insane. So I just sent a "I wash my hands of this" email regarding another acquired property that's supposedly paid out. I have no idea who is supposed to back in because they bought crap from a crap company that didn't believe in filing anything.
My last hope was the well file which if the scenerio was a work over would have copies of the letters sent to the partners. No such luck. So, I sent a letter stating I've looked in the last possible place that I know of and there is nothing. If someone else finds out anything please let me know... I AIN'T DOING ANY MORE ON THIS! Some one else can pull a bit more weight.
I mean everyone is busy but for some reason my busy-ness isn't considered as being "real" busy or "important" busy. I mean the majority of the people at this company think we're just a bunch of data entry monkeys.
Maybe I should talk to my boss and tell him put me on the shortlist... spare someone else who maybe wants to be here more...

Another day of "busy nothings"
I spent the whole day working on a yet another stupid new well, and the Land Negotiator is a complete jerk... or a total moron.
I asked him point blank if there were any unleased owners, he said no. I finally get a ten year old title opinion and what do I find... 7 UNLEASED OWNERS! And none of them have been leased at least not by us in the last 10 years.
Oy VEY!
I'm so sick of working Permian properties. Give me the crazies of Hugoton any day!
Well, some good news. My Aunt & Uncle are home after two days of travelling. The Duran Duran concert is a go. AND I'm going to see John Legend next month with Evangelia and some other peeps. I think her hubby is going. I'm not dragging Jim but Yolanda is going to come. I hear her listening to him all the time so I asked her if she wanted to come. Otherwise I would have just met up with everyone on my own.
And best of all, this is my Friday night. No work tomorrow. yee-haw!
Not idea what I'm going to do. There are a couple of movies I'd like to see or possibly check out the sale on Christmas stuff at Loew's.
or I might do nothing but stay in and do laundry & play video games

Here we go again...
our existance is cutting into Dr. Ray's "record earnings" yet again...
Not too long ago with high prices they were hiring people... we just replaced one person but still under staffed and getting buy with an insane number of contract people.
Our illustrious leader made a 400 million dollar bonus last year and we had layoffs...
I wonder what his bonus will be this year with up coming layoffs.
See Michelle at her desk. See Michelle drag her feet. Drag feet. Drag.
It's totally un-Christian of me to say this... but I hope he gets jock itch that never goes away.

You have GOT to be kidding me!?
I just got an email that Duran Duran maybe canceled because Nik Rhodes is stuck in South America unable to fly due to a horrible ear infection...
WHAT?! Great... another concert that I'll get reimbursed on. Shoot!!! I'm so iritated right now. Everything I want to do gets thwarted these days.
The only thing that's come through for me this year was my theater tickets. HA! Wait should be careful... The Trocks might cancel on me next!
I'm so bummed out...
and at the same time trying to see how many tickets for Mrs. Warren's Profession. I knew that two other people were going no matter what. Evangelia wants to go to the theater too but she can't go on Fridays or Saturdays because of work. Her weekends are Sunday and Monday.
In better news it looks like my Aunt and Uncle are going to be able to leave Thailand after all. The take over of the airport has ended but I think they still have this crazy way out because it takes a while to get an airport back up and running.
Work is just a big ol' mess... I have no time... *sigh*
