love in an elevator

So I started a new job last week. Great new role with lots of learning opportunities and potential new career paths. But even better than that, it has presented me with a whole new dating pool. The office has an internal facebook-type directory and so as I'm not very busy yet, I spent the better part of my morning intranet stalking a hot guy I saw on the elevator. He got off on the 3rd floor (my office is on the 5th), and so using the vast internal resources provided, I was able to figure out his name, what he does, his phone number, and his approximate age. He's a bit on the young side, but definitely older than Tag. I don't know that our jobs will interact at all, but I definitely need to figure out how to have more meetings on the 3rd floor!

anything but running


So I'm supposed to be training for the Seattle Half-Marathon, but am managing to do anything but. The problem is that I'm just not that motivated ... not sure why, because I do enjoy running (sort of) and the satisfaction that comes with having completed a goal (sort of). The issue is that the goal is 2 months away, and if there is one thing I'm really good at, it's procrastination. So today I am thinking of all the great things I can do instead of go for a run: read the paper (which was foiled because the two best sections, Review and Focus didn't come today ... ); clean my bathroom (it really is disgusting); open my mail (I have a tendency to let it pile up); watch hockey (first round playoff time, although I don't really care about the afternoon game today - my Sens aren't on til tonight); have a date with my PVR - plenty of good tv and movies saved for a cloudy day like today; and finally, what I really want to do is eat a blizzard - namely the tin roof brownie blizzard. So tasty.
