So what's next on the "Grand Lisa Plan"? I'm always curious to see what you're headed to next.
Apparently the posts on this thread are starting to run together for me...I saw this and at first my brain interpreted it as the "Grand Sperm Plan"! Now I don't know whether to laugh or blush!
Peace, Dawn

I didn't know where else to go to write this but my CEO is killing me!!!!!!! Now he's back on flirting mode from a distance. So infuriating. It'd be easier to seduce Larry Grayson.
Phew, OK. I just had to get that out.
In other news I heard yesterday night that two of my former colleagues in Philly have died. I'm really sad about it- they were both people I'd worked with pretty closely in my old job and I was just thinking about them last week. One was a family guy and he died in a car crash leaving three young kids and his wife, and the other was only a little older than me, planning to get married this August and apparently he went to sleep on Sunday night and just didn't wake up.
It makes you apreciate the transience of life. And the joys of a flirting red-hot millionaire.

PS. One of my experiments worked today! HUUURRRAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!
I'm sorry to hear about your colleagues! It really does point out how short life can be.
I've missed seeing you around here.... I know it is because you are doing better.... but still! And I am happy for CEO to keep up his galcial pace.... St. Andrews is coming!
Mish- I never lived in Philly but I might as well have- I used to spend a week in Upper Merion/King of Prussia/Philly every month for couple of years, and then I had a couple of years of everyone in my team working there and visiting often but not every month.
My experiment has been brewing for a year now- we were trying to find a new form of my drug that would be easier to give to patients as a tablet (the old version wasn't well absorbed from the gut). I think we're finally getting somewhere with that- only another 6 months before I can prove it in my patients! It's very very exciting- it takes so long to get results that it's important to celebrate when they come. And there's no feeling like an experiment working out- a combination of having a secret no-one else knows and 'see, I knew it!'.
Handsome- I've missed you too! But I notice tht you're not around here as much either. I hope that's because you're plotting an escape to St Andrews
My friend from Upper Merion is visiting on Friday and we're going out for some drinks and lunch- I can't wait as I haven't seen him for a couple of years now and we have so much to catch up on (he used to work with me in London and then moved- crazy!). He knew the guys who died quite well as well so we'll be able to toast them and share some memories. He sent me a message today saying that he was still in shock and reminded that life is fragile and transient, which is why he's such a good friend- that's exactly what I thought.
CEO's glacial pace- I love that Jeff! Today he was being so great- full of dreams and plans and funny. I'm not sure how long it's going to last- might as well appreciate it while I can!
I just found out my brothers' best man -whom I've known for 20 years- at age 43 has kindey cancer. He cheated on his wife 2 years ago, EA, he is a professor at the Uni and got involved with a student that used him to pass all her classes- and his wife found out just as the student was pulling away (from what she could read at emails). His wife is helping him thru this, she has been in despair ever since she found out and just as they were calming down... dang!!!! Wake up call!!! Karma? Who knows?
Sorry about your friends Lisa. Things like that make me feel stupid. I wonder why. xxx K
You shouldn't feel stupid though (why do you?)- you are choosing to live.... That's the best choice you can make.
So sorry about your brother's best man. I hope at the least it helps him realise his priorities in life. It's a gift in a way (I hate to say that remembering the misery of the bomb etc) but it's great to know what's important in life before life is over.
Last week was GREAT! It was like an 'in the zone' week of fun. I really had a great time.
CEO was on great form- lots of flirting banter. When he's in a good mood he's one of the best men in the world, and dangerous as a result. On Friday I went to his house and we drank tea in the garden. He makes great tea (it was really the best tea I think I ever had), and the garden is gorgeous- he was proudly showing me his pond that he built and how he's made his own guides for the roses to grow up. So cute.
I met my friend from America after that and we had lunch and got very drunk talking about what's important in life. He offered me his sperm, which is very generous of him. If only he didn't live in America I might have taken him up on the offer (artificial methods!).
While we were getting drunk I got asked out by a photographer who was actually reasonable looking and not a teenager or homeless. He e-mailed me today to ask when I'm free so let's see if a date actually pans out. It'll be fun to see someone who's not CEO or H, and who can tell me fun celebrity stories. He's a portrtait photographer and has some really amazing photos on his website.
On Saturday I went to visit one of my oldest friends and her new baby. It was so lovely to see her and her little boy is absolutely beautiful. There's something great about seeing old friends and not needing to explain yourself, and just be settled in when you see them. I haven't seen her for about 9 months and things are always exactly the same between us.
Last night I had a dream that H came back, which was a bit odd. I woke up sort of feeling a bit perplexed because in the dream I was also seeing CEO (I think, it's all a bit hazy now) and H was there with his bags. The fact that H had bagS indicates it really was just a dream as he only took one bag of stuff when he left and he never seems to have any new stuff when I see him, and besides his room wouldn't be big enough for any new stuff. Anyway, that was interesting. And CEO was super-hot in my dream. LOL!
Tomorrow we have a work experience day for a couple of youngsters. I'm making soap monsters with them in the microwave. Like being a proper scientist again!
Now I don't know whether to laugh or blush!
