Swing Baby, Swing

I'm getting ready to go watch the Reds.

The newsroom social clique has officially taken me in, and on the evening's agenda is a night of taking in the Cincinnati Reds. I'm sure we'll fit in a bit of bar hopping afterwards (seeing as I've got to soak up the new nightlife scene and all).
---------------------------------------
Other random notes:

My cable gets installed today. Oh, glorious Food Channel and MTV, how I've missed you!

---------------------------------------

I think I'm going to buy one of those big ass exercise balls to use as my seat for my new computer desk.

----------------------------------------

By the way, did I mention I went on a shopping spree at Tiffany last week? I bought the most beautiful silver necklace to commemorate my new job and my new life. My friend Wilhelm says it's not in the budget, but oh well. You know me and throwing caution to the wind!

Hey, here's a question for you to sip on. When the five o'clock whistle blows, lots of folks head out for a beer, a glass of wine, something to help them unwind after their long day at the saltmines.

What's a girl to do when she gets off work at 8:30 AM?

My Honorary Big Sis says it's quite alright for me to have a glass of wine when I get home because that's my end of the day. And besides, it's 5:00 PM somewhere, right?

What do you think?

-----------------------------------------

I started back up at the gym yesterday. Gold's has a great facility just down from my street, much like the one I left in Lexington. I got my membership transferred and signed up for the obligatory locker. Looking forward to working out like a mean bitch in a new state.

-----------------------------------------

Thinking about getting the Franz Ferdinand CD. I am in love with that Take Me Out song. Just downloaded the ringer version to my phone.

------------------------------------------

I brought in some scones to work today. It seems my cooking skills is luring in some new friends. They were chocolate chip, and dried fruit with nuts, BTW.

Next up: some kind of breakfast casserole.

I have never done that. It must be a cultural thing. My parents never did either, or my friends'. Plus I've always either had classes to study for or kids at home. But it sounds nice. Like something they do in big cities, waiting for traffic to clear. My question then, though, is ... why don't they stay at the office and get more work done? See? A cultural thing.
