Hooray for humpday!

So I decided that I needed some new pants. I rarely buy new clothes, so I was definitely due. Not to mention I only had 4 pairs of pants I wear to work, 2 of which were getting pretty thin and are really more like summer pants, so I put those 2 away until next spring. So, I went into Reitmans on Saturday hoping to find at least 1 pair of pants that I liked and that looked good on me. I was thinking brown would be a good colour. So, I walked in, grabbed 4 different styles of brown pants and went to the changeroom thinking “hopefully one of these fits me”. And I had good reason to think that because usually when I go to try on pants, they are either too short, are too tight in the thighs, don’t fit right around the hip region, or look good from the front but have that annoying gap at the back so that if you sit down people can see right down your pants. Well, I tried on my 4 pairs and all 4 fit perfectly! So, I made some decisions and looked at other colours and in the end, I got 3 pairs (different colours and styles). 1 dark brown, 1 light brown, and a pair of navy cords. They were all a very good price and now I have 5 pairs of pants to wear this winter instead of just 2. Yay!

Oh, and next January, guess what I get to do? *Insert appropriate drumroll please* I get to go to Waterloo HydroG to take a course in ModFlow. And the crowd goes wild! I am actually looking forward to it; I think it will be a good skill to have. We already have one employee that does modeling, and my boss wanted me to get involved with it and learn how to use the software so that I could take over the modeling someday. So, I will be Waterloo for 4 days in January taking the course. It will be a nice break from the office. Oh and the other good news associated with this is I will get a new work computer if I’m going to be doing modeling since my current computer is too slow for that.
