I started working at my current place in March 2004 so it's an anniversary for me! Since I've worked here I've had three different employers due to the temp issue. But I like the job but unless they make me permanent (which doesn't seem likely) I won't be here in 2008.

Allyson - congrats on the new job!

Congrats, Allyson!

I've been at my current job over 7 years. I started out hating it, then I liked it for a while, and now I'm back to hating it.

Okay, I've only caught a few episodes of Top Design, but that woman has made me cackle with every outfit/'do I've seen her in. That one's the top though.

Makes it a little difficult to take her judgement of good taste in design seriously. Actually the judges on this show are all craxy. Each episode I've seen, they've flat out contradicted themselves when commenting on entries.

I don't watch Top Design, but the outfit in that picture is totally kickin'. I love that blouse! You know she would be on the sartorialist blog every day.

Nothing else lost power. They were plugged into the same outlet.

Is it a GFCI outlet with a red button in the center? If so, you can try pushing the button to reset it. GFCI outlets are code in kitchens now, but you may be in an older building.

Jobs by years: 2, .5, 3, .5, 4, 7, 7, and I started my own business in 1998.

You are insane. Do you not remember the 80s???

Thank you, Jesse, for roundly condeming bon. That outfit is pretty much missing bleach and a butt bow to be a horror of a "vintage" wedding dress.

Today is the second and final day of my carb deplete. I'm a huge weenie. I'm hungry ALL THE TIME. Ended up smacking someone's hand so hard that it knocked food onto me and the floor because she kept picking at the food I moved out of the way to get to the chicken. What part of HUNGRY ALL THE TIME did you miss? I know it's tofu. I'm processing in order of not-disgustingness. I'll tell you when I'm done.

Also smacked another guy's hand so hard he got pissy with me, but I don't think there's any reason to expect I'm going to take having a tube of Ben Gay shoved in my face well when I'm talking to someone else.

It's possible on carbs I'm less bitchy, but, hell, I'm not on carbs. So I don't care.

I worked at the hell job a while--9 years all told. Which was the longest I'd ever lived in one country, never mind had one job.

Oooh, yer givin' me ideas!

Theme wedding!

Oh, related to fashion, there's a hipster in my neighborhood now! WTF? I've seen him a couple of times, so it must be true. With the floppy dyed hair and the skinny pants.
