caught in the middle & my very "showbiz" lunch

Don't you just hate it when you have the best of intentions and then everything just goes awry?

Yupyup. A couple of hours ago I got a call from my boss, Mommy2. She sounded very serious. Apparently my other boss, Bebe, spoke to her because he was "concerned." Yeah, well, he made me sound like a complainer, which I really am not. I mean, if I'm unhappy I have a tendency to just suck it in and wallow in my unhappiness in private. So really I wasn't complaining. I was just scared that if I accepted the offer of my other boss Mr. Dragon(like, how many bosses can a person have, huh?) my other job responsibilities might suffer. It's a valid concern, right? Well, anyway, there. She had to ask me what the real deal was. And I told her straight. If I say no, so and so might take it against me. How do you say no to that?

On the flipside, I am now the editor-in-chief of a celebrity profile magazine. Is this something to rejoice about? No idea. We'll just have to see if 1) I stick around long enough to see this project through and 2) if I do decide to take on this project at all. Because this magazine was the offer of Mr. Dragon - you know, the one that might conflict with my existing job?

At least it gave me the chance to spend some time with my friend (and now new crush) Smeagol... More on Smeagol in a bit.

Earlier in the afternoon...

Yes, yes. Celebrity lunch with Manay and LT at Sugi, my favorite Japanese restaurant. I absolutely gorged on the teppan and green tea ice cream. Sitting there made ME feel like a celebrity. Hahaha! Imagine, they seemed to trust my taste and were very receptive to my suggestions. This could actually be a cool thing to do. If I could set my schedule straight. Haay. What to do...
