As Much As I Think About It

Thank the heavens, my day went by so quickly! Day 5 of 5 down, and I survived! I managed to get up, shower, and dress on time, without having to rush into work. That in and of itself started my day off on a much more positive note. I really liked the way I looked in my new cocktail dress. I did my hair, tried something new with my makeup, and left the house feeling very pulled together and confident.

Laura was already there when I got there. This visit was different from past visits. We're seeing much more of her since we moved to the new store, and she's becoming less of an intimidating figure (to the others, because she's never intimidated me). Everyone is much more calm around her. She was very gracious to me, and I felt like she wasn't just acknowledging my presence out of duty. I'm also one of the top performing women in the district, ranking platinum (more than 10% over sales plan on the year). I make the company money.

By the time I got off, I was totally exhausted. I only got about 5 hours of sleep last night. I stopped at Central to grab something quick for dinner and some baking ingredients. I baked Snookums a lemon pound cake, and myself some banana bread before watching the VS Fashion Show. It wasn't that great. In previous years, it left me feeling very proud to work for such an iconic company. Tonight I didn't really feel that. Part of it could be some of the negative things some vegans online say about VS. I love being vegan... I don't really like all vegans. I've worked for VS too long, have invested too much to just walk away now. As much as I may think about it. My sense of loyalty keeps me here, and I don't want to hear anyone badmouthing my company. I don't think there's a single company in the world that's totally perfect, but VS overall does treat their associates well.

I know for sure tomorrow I'm going into Snap to get my paperwork done. I need to. Other than that, I'm not sure. I'm just going to relish in sleeping as long as I want, and then getting some exercise in!
