I just got the final word from Grandma E -- she's moving Saturday!
Which means I move in next weekend!
Woo!
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Hey there, JC!
I am SO GLAD I had a girl. None of that pesky to cut or not to cut debate. (But she can't get her ears pierced until she's 12, damn it.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
billytea! What a lovely and wonderful update.
I feel like this is really bad. I could use some perspective.This is how it pings me too, Jen. Unfortunately (but I have to disclaimer: the reality is that my divorce didn't do a lot for my sense of trust and I do count sins of omission.) I do hope I am wrong though.
My problem is that he actively engaged in pretense after [clip] he agreed be extra-super-sensitive to things that could appear to be violations of trust.ooooof...
Having been in a kinda similar place? I would tell him why this is so hurtful, listen to him, and try to forgive this once if you can. At least I hope I would. I want to think I could.

IOmememeN, in a production meeting today, it was mentioned that the company wanted to hire me as a Voice of Reason. Um, Jilli???
I think the vibes are working.
At least there is the hint of a letter of intent tomorrow. Of course, I still have to actually talk to the CFO but according to everyone that has talked between us? It's going to be a good thing.
Basically the whispers are that the company wants me, is willing to pay the placement fee after all and just wants to do so in installments. So I would be on a contract for another two months (but, hey!, contracty goodness instead of day-to-day) and then hired.
I'm not breathing the employed sigh of relief just yet, but I am fantasizing rampantly about it.

Not Plei or Jilli, but either of those would put you more or less between them. The Sorrento is somewhat out of the way, but is primo luxurious elegance. (I ran a spiffy board meeting there in my former life, and the staff were wonderful and everyone loved the site.) I don't recognize the other offhand.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I am going to my co-worker's daughter's bat mitzvah tomorrow, and, as I have never set foot in a synagogue, I don't know if a long sleeveless dress and open-toe shoes are okay to wear. They're Reform.
Yes? No?
For a Reform synagogue, that should be fine. (Pretty much, for Reform, there aren't really any clothing rules -- if it seems like whatever is considered appropriate for other fancy occaisions where you live, it's probably fine. For Conservative, same deal, though maybe a touch more modest, and probably skirt rather than pants for women. The only one where clothing would be a real issue is Orthodox -- there, it's sleeves no more than 2 inches above the elbow, skirt past the knee, not even a hint of cleavage.)
t edit: I'd say that "bring a cardigan just in case" sounds like a good plan, even just in case the synagogue is really overly air-conditioned or something. But there shouldn't be any issues with a sleeveless dress, religiously.
