Going dark for a long weekend as we take Owen to his first family reunion. My mother's side. The crazy side. But they're great cooks.
Is there such thing as easy-travel-with-an-infant-ma?
There's been a lot of turnover recently at my second job, and last night I was questioned about my interest in a promotion. This would allow me to work 20-30 hours less a week less, make more money, and dramatically increase my quality of life, even if the job is slightly less than desirable. It could well get sorted out this weekend, so if there is any stray promotion~ma floating around out there, I'd give it a good home!
The time has come for me to move on, for now at least. Thanks for the good times. Mail sent to my profile address will be gladly read.
Be kind to each other.
They are coming to disconnect my internet in an hour. The house closes on Thursday and we leave for Brazil on Friday. If anyone wants anything (small) from Brazil, let me know.
We get back from Brazil at the end of June, but won't be settled in North Carolina until early August.
Aiiiiiieeeeeeeee! I am now an engaged woman. The dear, sweet BF proposed on Saturday in Pennsylvania. There was much crying on everyone's part, and it helped to cheer up my father.
The wedding will probably be in April or September of 2005. Ack! I have to *plan* a wedding!
t hasn't stopped glowing since Saturday
I'd like to tap into the job~ma. I'm meeting with one of the big companies that staffs and runs installations for big themed environments like restaurants, theme parks, and casinos. They need a few folks to come in as contractors and do essentially project management for some of their stuff. It would mean some gigs in N. California and Vegas from the sounds of it. This could offset my income loss from the teaching job going away.
Meeting with them at 10 AM PDT on Wednesday, so any spare ~ma would be good.
That "whoooooshing" sound you hear is a combination of susurrations: me exhaling in relief, and the jobma being sucked out the window and back out into the 'verse, for those who need. And, hopefully, with some extra vibeage comin' atcha.
Everyone's on board, including the director of the company. Looks like $65 an hour.
Very very very very relieved.
I'm off to talk to the folks about Project Managing some big A/V installs. 10 AM is when I meet with them, so any spare ~ma floating around is much appreciated.
Interview-ma needed, stat!
If jomba vibes could be directed NYC-ward around 6 pm this afternoon, I'd greatly appreciate it. Must. Get. Out. Of. Temping. Rut!
