Job Titles

on August 5, 2009

Thanks for being understanding about my lack of posting last night! I had one of those moments when the thought of turning on my computer made me nauseous. :) Now the computer aversion is gone and I’m back!

Little Maddy and I had a blast yesterday. I wish she was coming over again today!

BFFs forever!

Breakfast was DIVINE!

I made whole wheat waffles and topped them off with blackberries, raspberries, coconut, flax, and maple syrup.

Plus, I actually had time to do strength training this AM:

30 push-ups
100 bicycle crunches
10 wall squats for 10 seconds

I found out yesterday that I’m being furloughed temporarily from my part-time gig at night, so I’m going to have my evenings back for a few week. Truthfully, that will be kind of nice. I’m looking forward to an evening run tonight!

Off to work I go! It’s going to be a very busy day.

What’s your official job title? Mine is "Project Planner."

My official job title for my full time job is "Acquisition Specialist" (I don't even know where to begin to explain that, don't really understand it anyway) and my part time gig is "Information Analyst". Oh, and "Dog Mommy", that's an important job too 🙂
healthymadison August 5, 2009, 4:56 am
Well–right now it is "graduate student." haha–but I do have a job title in my family and it is "manager" because I like to tell people what to do. 🙂

Your job title sounds like fun–I love planning!

I can't get over how cute Maddy is…I wish Meghann could let her stay with each and every one of us for at least a day 🙂

My job title is Life Coach, Blogger, Writer, Cat-Petter, Cook, Laundry-Folder, and Awesome Girlfriend. In the past I've been "Guest Services Coordinator", "Front Desk Manager", "Reservations Manager", and "Ad Designer". Job Titles are funny!

Legal intern!!!
I live for the day when I no longer go by 'intern', but since I have two more years of law school, I have another summer of such fun!
NYgirl@heart August 5, 2009, 5:17 am
It's weird to say this after being "newspaper reporter" and "marketing specialist" but due to this wonderful economy I am now an "IT consultant."
HA! Writing and marketing to IT? Yeah, that's what I said.
Erica August 5, 2009, 5:18 am

Maddie is just too cute for words! I'm glad that you had a great day with her yesterday.

Yea for your time off of your part-time night job. It will be nice for you to have more time in the evenings – maybe it will help alleviate some stress about your training too.

My official title is "7th grade science teacher".
misslabella August 5, 2009, 5:24 am

my official title is "Web Developer".

I just wanted to say that I love your comments on meghann's blog. On your own blog, you are so kind and tolerant (although i love that you totally stick up for yourself too), but i think it's awesome that you have no problem going out there and defending your friend. I think it's totally obvious that you care about your own integrity and loyalty to your friend and doing what you think is right more than you do about keeping your "fans." and that's the way it should be – great job 🙂
Meg C. August 5, 2009, 5:34 am
