Are you accountable?

I spent yesterday at the Boston Hyatt learing about Accountability in Management "The OZ Principle" I have to say the instructor was engaging and I was drinking the cool aid by lunch. Now to apply the techniques in my non perfect world will be the challenge. I reminded me of the days when I taught. I loved my job back then and I think now it was because of all the interesting and intelligent people I would meet. Yesterday was filled with breakout sessions so I got to meet a lot of folks and hear a lot of interesting perspectives. I was feeling better and empowered about my position when I left so I guess the seminar was successful. I am going to try to read the book this weekend.

Tonight C and are babysitting for our friends little boys. They are 5 and 3 and I love them to pieces. We help our friends out a few times a year and test the waters for when we will have our own. I am always pooped when I go home. C has the first shift solo because I will be working in Waltham until 4. We'll see how he is holding up once I get there in the evening.

Friday night I have plans with a group of friends to grab apps and drinks at either a place called Sorrentos or The Alamo. Both places are somewhere out on 495 in the Milford\Franklin\Bellingham area (not sure yet). The hidden purpose of this outing is to fix one of my friend's up with a friend of a friend of a friend...ok enough that is a bit ridiculous. It is a fixup to see if they mesh. C thinks the guy is a meathead because he was giving a pro-steroids speech over the summer at a BBQ. I left that little tidbit out on both sides, no need to hurt anyone's feelings.

In other news BB9 is explosive this season. I am not sure if anyone else watches. I never did until three years ago when some of C's friends made a contest out of it. The most annoying decietful biatch got voted off last night. I sincerely hope her boyfriend (also on the show) kicks her obnoxious arse to the curb when he sees what she was saying about him behind his back. Crap comments like that (if they are not true) can really damage a person. I know she was lobbying to keep herself in the house but did she forget that America was watching and now a vast majority think her bf is racist. Then she denied it....hmmm rollback scene please...

That is all I got right now
