I just finished working, and I'm too awake to sleep. So I'm watching Smash and having another glass of wine. I'll regret this when Wednesday really starts. Smash is much better than i thought it was going to be, but I've had a crush on Jack Davenport since I watched the BBC show This Life when I was 16.
I love my new job, but I have to reach a plateau soon right? I don't want to get burned out. I'm also doing a ton of contract work on the weekends because, well, new mortgage.
Still loving the new house though, and having my husband and dogs here.

You guys! A coworker found a banner ad for BL's job this morning! It was on the local newspaper's website. But there's not a listing on the organizations website or the professional recruitment website. Omg omg omg!
I was going to tell my manager that we're leaving today, but I may hold off a day or two...

Ahhhhhh!!!! I love the guy who does the weather on the local NPR station. He is so over the hot weather and punchy. Quotes from today's weather forecast – "I only have bad news today. It's going to be hot, so get over it. The air is not fit to breathe. Monday will be less terrible, so hang in there"

Thanks sfy. I broke my no tv rule and they are both plopped on the couch watching Peppa Pig and Curious George. They are the two least obnoxious shows I could find.
DH woke up at 5:30 for an early work meeting, and even though he tries to be quiet he woke me up too. I've already done a load of laundry, answered emails, cleaned up the kitchen, ad packed my lunch, all before 8am.
I hate when my boss, who lives in another state, comes to visit and doesn't think about LA commuting/traffic. "So can we have a meeting in Santa Monica and then Downtown, and then can I fly out of Burbank?" Um, NO. Especially when I'm driving.
I'm cranky. I came into work and half my desktop icons were gone again, for the 4th time, so IT recreated my profile and now I lost all my favorites and other things. The new person that was hired here is awful and boss had been talking about letting her go, but now her husband is dying so he's not sure what to do. Another coworker is talking about quitting just to get away from the awful person. I loved my job until this new person started and now it sucks. At least today is my last day at work, the next two days are vacation days.

LOL. That's awesome!
H convinced me to drop my one class this semester. With all my new-found time I'm aimlessly wandering around the internet. I think I'm going to stop by Barnes & Noble and pick up the newest issue of Domino.
H is on his way to Saskatoon, won't be home until Sunday night. I was supposed to go to dinner with my BFF that I rarely get to see on Saturday but now I'm not sure...we scheduled it before I knew H would be OOT. Kinda bummed about it but kinda not, I love her but she's kind of exhausting and has a complicated marriage situation.

Is it better to wear a skirt suit to an interview or a pant suit? I much prefer skirts but I can wear pants (have to get them hemmed) if I need too. Thoughts?
v, by the way, I just saw your message about NY. We were very busy because we had a party on Friday night and we didnt get in until very late on Thursday. We went to Essex for brunch on Sat and wandered around the city. We went shopping as well. I left at 1030 AM on Sunday. It was a short trip. I cant wait to go again.
Anyone know if raangoli is O.K.? I haven't seen her here this past week or so. Hope all is well.
Hi! Thanks for thinking of me! I took a vacation/technology break. It was refreshing.
I thought of you yesterday actually. We went to universal studios and the Simpsons area was awesome! I think you'd love it!
Neat! Hope you had fun. A friend of mine took his family there and snapped a pic drinking Duff Beer. I also know someone who bought the obligatory BORT license plate.

I prefer skirts, also, but I don't know if one is necessarily better. You are certainly safe with a skirt. Good luck !

We had a group quiz today. I've never heard of such, and I strongly dislike this concept. The grade counted, and we got an 80. I am not pleased.
A group quiz, for the initiated like myself, means you can have one persi/ notes out and you all attempt to answer the 10 questions. I knew a log of the answers of the top of my head and was the answer-writer, but the one'scthaf were looked up We got wrongness, after the loookrupper's, were so sure of their answers, and they were wrong.

Skirt. I'm a traditionalist when it comes to interviews.
dreamcrisp1 it's whatever you are the most comfortable in. I personally prefer skirts.
I'm taking a bubble bath, watching Friends, and drinking wine. I'm trying to destress from my rough day and upcoming exam score release. Only 11-15 hours left until I get my score...not that I'm counting down or anything

Ugh, ugh, ugh.
That sucks.
It kind of reminds me of one grad school class I had that was heavily dependent on peer reviews for a grade. Mine was so baseless that I pretty much dressed down the professor.

I hope school is going well otherwise!

It is going well, just very busy. It's fun though.
