My seminar/vacation is turning into more work and less vacation...
I have a career guardian angel and a vacation curse hanging over my head.
My cat lady has fallen off the face of the earth. I need someone that can administer fluids b/c Antigone needs fluids everyday. So I need to shorten my trip and ask my brother to take Antigone to the vet for fluids.
My trip is now Tuesday - Friday. I thought I would spend all day Tuesday at NASA. This seminar is sponsored by a national IP organization. The Board is meeting on Tuesday. My friend is on the board and can get me in It is a very nice dinner affair sponsored by this organization at a museum afterwards. It is a phenominal networking opportunity and will be a really nice dinner. And I love after hour museum events! No crowds. I am use to being the only one w/o a spouse or a date - so that is fine.
So now I have a little less time to spend with friends at NASA.
I guess this is good and bad. Dinner at a museum is a social life - right?
Sigh...Does this still count as balancing work and life?
I need formal attire - something like formal yet business appropriate - perhaps silk pantsuit... And new make up. My make up is all almost 3 years old - rarely use make up since I started working from home... I guess this is a good thing - I might actually look human! LOL!
