Signs of Fall.

I LOVE this weather. Did you think of me this morning when you woke up and it was freezing and windy? I love it. I feel like I'm back home in the east. Anyway. Welcome back. I just got settled. Answered some e-mails, picked up some office supplies, and ate some yogurt. Part of my job today consists on finalizing this 800th draft for the training sheet. What's embarrassing is that for the one I've been working on, it's a training sheet for this one group of products we're selling together. On each sheet, I have to outline how to use it, and what's great about it, and then suggest some more products in our line-up to use alongside it. So, this particular one I'm working on is a combination of four or five different colors to put on your face. So naturally, under the "Other Product Suggestions to go with this Look," I suggested our makeup remover wipes. I wasn't trying to be funny. I just thought it would be important to remove the makeup before going to sleep-- it's healthy, AND it's an upsell. But when I submitted this sheet with that suggestion to the person who is in charge of handing this assignment over to me, I got reprimanded. She told me that this wasn't the idea we were going for. I should have suggested some mascara or a lipstick or gloss or something.

How the fuck would I know? I must be the only person in this company who doesn't wear four full-face products at a time. I still think my idea was better. I have to go and correct that shit now. How frustrating. I think that to congratulate myself on a job well done for my new project, I'm going to get a manicure.

I bet you're already back at work. I slept at 10 p.m. last night, woke up at 3.30 a.m., and couldn't get back to sleep until 6.30 a.m. when I have to wake up at 6.50. Nice, right?
