Weight: x+16.  Wowza.  Current goal is to enter weekend back at square one.  Square one being x+15.  I think that sounds fair.

Ugh, why do I always want to stab people with my heels?  I'm wearing my cross necklace today which usually calms me down.  Rubbing it today has effectively led to no homicides...yet.  I'm thinking of shutting my door to the rude jerk that makes me want to stab him.  It's totally ok in a work environment to say "hey, you can call me, email me, IM me, but you CANNOT come down and stand in my personal space yelling at me while eating a bagel I BOUGHT," am I right?  I think I'm right.

In other news, did flirt, and it amounted to us both saying "you're cute" "you're cuter..."  Progress, I think.  No mention of non-existent skirt being off sick.

Bridget on Working Late

Weight:  Oh, give me a break already.  Can't a girl eat?  What am I supposed to do?  Eat healthier things than going-away cake and whatever snacks happen to be lying around the office?  Oh, right.  Supposed to do those things.  Does sound reasonable...hmm.

8pm on a Tuesday....was supposed to be at free screening of comedy movie, but instead, at work.  Remembering how just two short weeks ago, was at work all hours of the day and night.  One significant difference:  Stephanie and Johnny Mac fed me there.  I miss them!  Where's my Chick-fil-a sandwich?  I need my extra-hot mocha!

In other news, attempted very lame flirting technique (that is, not really flirting at all) that proved completely ineffectual.  Am not talented in the ways of flirtation.  I can only master being friendly.  Oy, must channel inner-Bridget.

Extra hot mocha reference...

Bridget Over-Analyzes

Just realized Set Crush was revealed on April Fool's Day.  Am I an April Fool?  Hmm.  Bridget would agree, there is room to doubt.  Let's think about it daily for the next 3 months and go back and forth between decisions, never accomplishing anything.

In other news, freedom of not weighing in gave me the confidence to fully eat my feelings today!  Hooray!  Thank you, Disney commissary, for having Haagen Daz mini-cups of one of my favorite flavors - Caramel Cone.  I mean, had they been quarts, I would have eaten that too, but mini-cups...that hit the spot.  Will stop eating my hair now.

I think Bridget says it best: "At times like this, continuing with one's life seems impossible, and eating the entire contents of one's fridge seems inevitable."

Bridget on the "Set Crush"

Weight:  x+17.  Thanks to bringing Porto's Pastries to the office Monday to welcome new neighbors I had never met.  Mistake.  They didn't show up, and with the help of the whopping TWO office-mates, we pretty much ate for TEN.

I've already talked a little about my experiences on the set of "X TV Show."  My official role on the set was the often overlooked role of "Head of Guest Services" as well as "Chief Twitterer."  In other words, I had no real responsibility.  Which left me PLENTY of time to chat with everyone, learn all 147 people's names, remember who had a twin sister, who won last year's fantasy football league, who likes white mochas vs. vanilla lattes, learn a new game that you can NOT be me at, research who was the prankster putting sandbags in someone's bag, break up a fight, and in all other ways "be social." 

Amid all of this "being social," I discovered a bit of male attention which is quite unusual for little me who barely interacts with humans.  Apparently, there's something called a "set crush," and on the last day on set, I was told point blank I was the subject of one.  I might be glorifying it a tad by comparing it to the "just a girl, standing in front of a boy" scene in Notting Hill.  Or better yet, the end of the dinner scene "I like you, just the way you are" in BJD.  But still, when was the last time that someone simply said "I like you?"  At our age, it's more like "if you ask me how I feel, I'll make a joke out of it to protect myself."

So, I ask you, universe, how is that fair?  Now I'm back in LA, and I'm sure the next male attraction I receive will be from a dog trying to mount my pup.  (She's quite popular at the dog park.)

Bridget on Saying Goodbye

Weight:  x+16 = still considering it an accomplishment not to have gained more....

So, I survived until April!  Hooray!  But I had no idea how much I was going to miss all of the folks who've been with me for the last month that I term "hell-month." 

We wrapped our shoot on Friday around 10pm.  I struggled for a good half-hour, thinking up things I needed to do that were NOT "pack my bag and leave."  I didn't want to go!  It was 10pm on a Friday night, and I did not for the life of me want to get into my car and drive away from work.  I missed everyone before I even left.  I missed long hours, I missed unhealthy food (and sometimes uncooked food).  I just missed it all.  Every day since 1/14/11, what I've really missed most is sleep.  But since 4/1/11, all I've missed is the 147 people who made my experience so fulfilling. 

In summary, I kind of want to move back to Georgia.  But only kind of.  This too shall pass.
