love & hate: friday

love: Jen is helping me ditch slow-as-molasses Yahoo! Web Hosting in favor of having her be my full-service web maven and I totally love her for it.

hate: We are running into a few glitches that can only be explained by lots of geekery so please be patient while she fixes everything in my life site.

love: Business is booming at my office (oddly in a bad economy?) and my boss is trusting me with more and very interesting clients. One of them you have no doubt seen on TV recently!

hate: A 12-hour work day is more normal than not, and that’s hardly sustainable. Need! sleep!

love: I think I sent off blog interview questions to all who wanted them, but let me know if I missed you?

hate: Unread items in my Google reader are reaching unmanageable proportions….oy.

love: Forecast calls for 49 degrees and sunny on Sunday — and I am so thrilled about it I proposed we go hiking.

hate: If I lived in Denver I’d see the sun 6 days a week. Not here though…

love: Internet friends who help me plan my vacations, like Anne with her Orlando advice and Hola Isabel who is going to help me score a great hotel in Paris.

hate: That I cannot pack each and every one of you to my Italian-beach-bound suitcase. I don’t think the husband would like that very much. No offense.

love: My late 20s are great, really: I have friends who are having babies (squee!), getting married (squee!), and making out with new cute boys (squee!). It seems like we have all passed the quarter-life crisis hump and things are pretty good.

hate: Sometimes I feel like I work so much I don’t have time or energy to keep up with all the people I’d like to. Actually, more than sometimes. Mostly all of the time.

love: That I am over being over blogging — I needed a break but I missed my internet peeps!

hate: that I maybe might have spilled some thai food on my iphone and the ear part maybe might be messed up. UGH. Will deal with it after I’ve slept this weekend..

love: SLEEP. THIS WEEKEND. OMG IT WILL BE AWESOME.

Happy Fridaying to all, and leave me some loves and hates in the comments. I can’t stand to have the butt photos are the top of the page any longer!

  1. ooh I’m a web maven!??! I like that! Maybe I should print that on my business cards? ;) hehe

  2. Janet – I’m sorry that I’ve been MIA lately – I’m still in my “I’m over blogging phase” (again)… I hope your bootie is healing quickly (owwww – I’m always terrified of falling down the metro escalators!) and love the inauguration photos. Your bedroom looks really lovely, too! I love the window nook. Enjoy your weekend!

  3. Ooooh! I love Love/Hate editions.

    Love: Free tickets to any United destination!

    hate: i still have a whole work day ahead of me.
    love: it’s still friday :)

  9. Love: That the Love/Hate Friday is back!

    Hate: That I have also been in a bit of a blogging rut!

    Love: That my coaching job is almost over and I won’t have to plan for dinner every day at 1pm before I go.

    Hate: That my coaching job is almost over and now I don’t have any excuse for a babysitter to come to my house every afternoon!

  10. Oh man, I am SO envious of your trip, but really hoping that at least we’ll get an awesome recap and photos out of it so that I can live vicariously through you! Have a great weekend, and get some rest, chica!

  11. A new client I’ve no doubtedly seen on TV? Is it the SNUGGIE?! That’s the only thing I remember seeing on TV. Unless your new client is Adam from Man V. Food. Love that show.

    Hate: Winter
    Love: Friday
    Hate: That it’s still winter.
    Love: Super Bowl commercials
    Hate: Uh, winter. I really, really, really hate winter.

  12. I’m with you on the work thing. I’ve been getting a lot more responsibility, but that also means more time in the office.

  13. Oh, I so totally and completely want to move to Denver. St. Louis weather is just too darn unpredictable and changing.

    Glad you’re over being over blogging…I was really starting to get attached and then you left! Happy you’re back!

  14. Love: That I have the house to myself tonight (well, me and the baby)
    Hate: That I only got one hour of sleep last night (due to baby) so my free evening will be spent SLEEPING (assuming baby allows).

  15. Love: That it’s Monday ( know, weird..)

    Hate: That I have cramps

  16. Ok I’m de-lurking for the first time in 2 years to tell you to write more!! Your blog is always a welcome break during the work day and I miss it!

    Cheers,

    Alex from Brussels
