21 March 2007 21:34I had an interesting day today ...
I didn't go into work because I had a job interview this morning with Natural Resources Canada. It's a temp position until June acting as the Administrative Assistant to one of the Director Generals. It's a good job, more in my area of expertise, and it will likely be extended through the summer to fill in for vacationing people. And most importantly it's getting me away from DFAIT. The interview went beautifully and I start on Monday! Yeah me!!
So I decided to celebrate by running some errands. We travelled off to IKEA where I bought some new bedding and two new lamps, and we then had lunch at Millstones. The food was wonderfully yummy and all seemed well until I tried my friend Vicie's meal. She had the kobe beef meatloaf with mashed potatoes and bread pudding. What I didn't realize was that the pudding contained gorgonzola and that had contaminated the rest of the meal.
Here's the thing, I'm allergic to pennicillin. I have an anaphylactic reaction to it. Thankfully there wasn't enough pennicilin rockforti in the meal to kill me, and Vicie always carries benedryll. Now I have a rash, but it's been getting better as the day goes on. It was a bit of a scary moment that's tinted the whole day ... I guess that'll teach me to be more careful about what I put in my mouth ... :(
