Radiologue

This will mark Day 4 of my attempt to write this entry. It’s been almost two months since my last entry and it’s a bit challenging to get something put together. It’s time to just brain dump…

Promotion… I got a big fat one. I’ve now got a Senior title and 20 people reporting to me. (That’s up from 5!) I’ve known about it for a few months now, but actually being in the role is certainly more stressful than I anticipated. My previous role was primarily support of any services related to our Media website. These days I not only own website operations but the back end as well: Oracle DBs, ESB, leads processing, ad forecasting, payroll services, and more.

Colie is back in SF for work. She’ll be there for the better part of the year. Still adjusting. I miss that girl something fierce. The add load of the promotion isn’t helping, I think. I feel like John Adams without his Abigail. I tried talking through the day with my cat but her feedback and advice isn’t that sound.

Heading to Hawaii next week. We’ll be there for 7 days. The vacation is perfectly timed to help me with my stress. It’s going to be fun I’m sure but I’m having a pretty hard time seeing through the next day or two ahead of me at the moment.

My brother flies into town the 1st week of July. Really looking forward to having him home for a week. Yet again, something that’s hard to see through the next few days ahead of me.

So I’ve managed to get through it. Now I should stop procrastinating and get that initiative proposal and annual reviews I’ve been stalling on completed.

Woooooosah!
