Now that I am the sole breadwinner in my little family, does that mean I can expect the architect to meet me at the door with martinis every night?
What will this do to our carpooling arrangement?
Should I cancel my Netflix?
I love a pre-holiday lay-off!
*purr* Architects LOL
I do love me some architects. All in all, I prefer employed architects, but he’ll do for now.

Lay-off? Naughty.
well, how else do you ‘celebrate’ losing a job? 🙂
What?? I missed something. When did that happen? That’s terrible. There have been some lay offs at architecture/design firms around here too. BOO!
It’s crap right now. I don’t know what we’ll do in the short-term. No one, of course, is hiring – and if a job does appear, there are so many applicants. It is definitely ‘teh suck’.
I hope Obama builds some stuff. 🙂
I hope that Obama builds stuff too! 🙂
I saw you twitter this and have been thinking about you ever since…stressful.
I know.
Ive been there.
This is not the first time for us (architecture is a volatile field), but the first time when another job wasn’t right around the corner.
I know we’ll make it through – but it is definitely stressful. At least I have my stress-release, right? Gotta love that running.
What? when did the architect get laid off? Speaking as a breadwinner, it’s not always fun. Just keep your nose to the grindstone and everything will work out in the long run. Usually for the better.
I’ll be thinking bout ya till he gets something else lined up.
He got laid off about 1 hour before I shared with the internet. I’m a giver like that.
It wouldn’t have been so bad if I had been the primary money-maker in our relationship. BOO!
Um…not to be a big copycat or anything (Miz was just up earlier than me!), but I also saw your message on twitter and have been thinking about you. And yes, I totally think the architect should be meeting you at the door with a martini every night. Just because it’s the nice thing to do!
Miz is up earlier than everyone, I think. 🙂
Thanks for the thoughts, and I’ll pass on your martini support to the architect.
And dinner ready! 🙂
now you’re talking crazy. (I suggested that, too, and he said, “but you cook so much better than me.”)
🙂
That definitley sucks, but the answer to your question is yes. He should be waiting with martinis, and maybe only wearing an apron!
Oooh – I like the apron idea. I need a man servant. (Also, maybe some drapes in the front window.)
really sorry to hear that about ‘the architect’. tell him im sorry, and im sending good thoughts your way . . . (though they may take a while to get there).
