To me, "embrace change" means "Something's gonna happen and you probably ain't gonna like it, so suck it up and get over yourself." I haven't met too many people who don't cringe at the thought of "change." Some do well, others don't. For the most part, I do well with change. Not without kicking and screaming, but I do eventually adapt.<br /><br />BUT...today, I'm going to kick and scream about a "change" I'm not willing to make!<br /><br />Well, we had a very comfortable chair in the Eagle studio. A little old...it's been here for about 7 years, but nonetheless, very comfortable and still looked good. <br /><p><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wq07MXXeOWY/R9VR9m79NiI/AAAAAAAAADw/NiGswX4svw8/s1600-h/oldchair.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wq07MXXeOWY/R9VR9m79NiI/AAAAAAAAADw/NiGswX4svw8/s320/oldchair.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176133465598146082" /></a><br /><p><br /> Well, this morning, "old faithful" was NOT in the studio and replaced by a brand new chair. <br /><p><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wq07MXXeOWY/R9VSmG79NjI/AAAAAAAAAD4/Fsrq2L8hQU4/s1600-h/newchair.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wq07MXXeOWY/R9VSmG79NjI/AAAAAAAAAD4/Fsrq2L8hQU4/s320/newchair.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5176134161382848050" /></a><br /><p><br />I hate new chair. It's hard. It hurts my butt. I don't wanna embrace new chair. I wanna toss it. But I sit in it hoping I may come to love new chair. After an hour, I realized why Jombi stood up for his show this morning. It didn't get any better. My backside fell asleep and I had a heck of a time waking it up. I looked pretty ridiculous to passerbys. <br /><br />So, I did what I had to do without causing a major catastrophe. I complained to our engineering department. Assistant Engineer John said old chair had a broken wheel and he just fixed it. Minutes later, he brought it back in the studio and now I'm sitting comfortably again.<br /><br />New chair is still in the studio, though. Apparently it's JEN'S new chair. Sure hope she can "embrace change."Karen Westhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08401471576979050727noreply@blogger.com
