Dear Blog,
It's been a while, hasn't it?
Today I made a cake for my assistant for her birthday. I was told it was "wicked good." I smiled. I also got an email from a co-worker saying that she was impressed with what I've been doing the last few months. I smiled again. Yesterday, I got someone to donate money for something and when I told my superior, they said, "good job." I really beamed. It's nice to get noticed.
So I feel alright- this week was ok. No major catastrophes and a few compliments along the way. But, I can't help but wonder when the other shoe is going to drop. (I don't know why a shoe would drop and be a bad thing, but just continue with me and this metaphor.)
I eat humble pie for just about every meal of the day. If I ever get a little proud or cocky, I will wind up eating a bigger helping of humble pie and it will give me a big tummy ache. So again, when's the shoe going to drop? I'm waiting for it. When will something bad happen? When will I get a swift kick in the ass before I know what happened?
But I in the meantime, I'll take the compliments. Maybe put them in my back pocket for later, to remind me of the things I've done right, and maybe use them as padding for when the big kick comes.
