I woke up this morning absolutely CERTAIN that I never bought tickets to this weekend's SPN con. I knew I had a ticket for my photo op with Jensen (OH MY GOD A PHOTO OP WITH JENSEN FUCKING ACKLES. He's so hot I might actually die of it.) but I couldn't remember buying a general admission ticket to the actual session with Jared and Jensen. I e-mailed Kiffle in a panic before checking the website and realizing that GA tickets are on-sale the day of. So I e-mailed Kiffle again to tell her all is well at which point she reminded me that we have preferred seating that I already paid her for. I R SMRT.
Work has been challenging and stressful lately but there's some upside mixed in. I was asked to sit on the board of directors for my company's foundation. They do a lot with grants, scholarships, and employee assistance so it's something I'm excited to be part of beyond my bi-weekly payroll contribution. I was also asked to mentor the leader of our Women's Employee Action Group. It's a group that develops and supports female employees through programming and other initiatives. This week they're sponsoring a Women & Investing seminar. The group's leader is responsible for all of the event planning, communication, etc. but, as her mentor, I help guide the direction of the group and advocate for her within our organization. Both the foundation and the EAG will take time that's already scarce but getting involved this way is a good thing for me when I'm finding my days so stressful.
What else can I tell you? Tomorrow is my first Anti Defamation League meeting. I'm looking forward to the program but the headquarters are at least a 45 minute drive so I'd be more excited if it was in Ann Arbor. Tomorrow's speaker is a former Neo-nazi who now travels the country speaking out against racism and anti-semitism.
