Look who's Gay now!

To all of us Harry Potter fans it should come as no suprise that someone was bound to be gay. I secretly thought maybe Snape was, because he was always trying to hide his secrets. But who knew it was actually Dumbledore? I didn't but it makes sense. If not he would have hooked up with Prof. McGonagal.

JK Rowling is keeping the book alive by revealing these tidbits long after the final book. She is a master of marketing. If Dumbledore would have come out earlier, there would have been even more boycotts than there were by Christians Conservatives. You go JK. I smell a prequel, with Harry's parents and Dumbledore's forbidden love affair.

I stood up for myself and.......

Here we go again! I quit my job today. Yes, the same job that started out as my dream job and ended up as a nightmare. Here's the scoop. For about the last month, I haven't been doing marketing. I have been a glorified receptionist. The receptionist was let go a month or so ago leaving me to take over her duties. I asked and asked when a replacement was coming with no answer. I answered phones, placed calls, even made office forms for the salesmen. Not exactly marketing. I basically quit doing all the marketing. The owner threw me a bone occasionally having me work on a flyer to keep me quiet, but I was not happy.

Then this past Friday, I told him I didn't want to do it any longer, that was not was not what I was hired to do. He said nothing. Low and Behold yesterday, my only alli at work was sent a text telling him to send me home. It was 1pm. Neither of us had any clue as to what was going on. Finally at about 8 last night, I recieved a text from the owner stating "U R Fired!". I replyed "Any Reason?". "NO" I recieved back. I turned off my phone fuming. This morning I check my emails, "We were joking". I replyed with " I QUIT. That's not a joke!" I went in took my things, turned in my key and left.

I am bummed about the job, after all it was my big break. But I am not sad I quit. He had it coming. I stood up for myself. Yes, I am unemployed again but at least I can live with myself. Tim was the person who told me not to go back. He was more pissed than me. Thank GOD I have him.

As for what's next? I am going to get a PT job somewhere (it's Xmas season, shouldn't be that hard), continue delivering the Bag, and I have decided to start my own web-based marketing company. I think that is the best way to keep doing what I love and still pay the bills.

OH, you may be wondering why I changed the domain. As some of you know, there have been some nasty haters on the blog leaving messages (my harem took care of him), but this is exactly the ammo he needs to start again. So I am giving the new domain to people I love and trust. Thanks for all your support. Maybe this is exactly what I needed to happen.

BTW... GO TRIBE!!!! One win away from the World Series.

Wine and Tribe

Last night Tim and I had a wine tasting party, about 20 of our closest friends attended. We had a blast. I think we drank about 15 bottles of wines collectively and partied until midnight. We had a hostess from the Traveling Vineyard. I highly recommend having a party through them. Tiffany brought 6 different wines for us to sample, she taught us how to smell and swirl the wines. We then purchased wines afterwards from an extensive catalog. Fun Fun Fun! Thanks to everyone who came. I hope you don't have as bad of a hangover as I do.

Then after everyone left, my beloved Cleveland Indians BEAT the Red Sox in 11 innings in the longest postseason game ever, over 5 hours. SWEET. I think the Tribe will win the series in 6 games. I unfortunatley do not have tickets for this series, but I am holding out hope that I get to see the World Series live in Cleveland. GO TRIBE!!!

I'm Coming Out

Ok, I know it will be a shock to all of you who know me, but..... I'm Gay! I know I know, you didn't know. How could you. I never put anything in my blog to suggest otherwise.

I just thought I'd announce it since today is National Coming Out Day! So in the prolific words of Glinda the Good Witch, "Come Out Come Out wherever you are." Be happy and Gay!!!
