GC, I just said the exact same thing! The week and this job are trying to KILL ME DED. I want to crawl under my desk and cry.

I'm so sorry guys. I think it might be all my fault, 'cause I'm really liking my job this week.

Ooooh, more good karma is coming my way. Just spoke with the Nationwide mucky-muck in charge of the client for the contract I want to shift to. It is actually the same client as my current contract, but just a different group of people. He RAVED about how great I would be for this opportunity and he said he would call the gal who is hiring to give a recommendation.

Baby steps. Must remain calm. I may end up lead on both contracts. OMG!!! But then I can officially have minions.

It's better to have minions than be one - yay Suzi!

Good luck, Suzi! It's sounding good!

I just got home from going out to do some reading. I only got through one article. I was hoping to get through four, or at least two. Sometimes shit just takes SO freaking long.

Dawn and I are work-hating twinsies! Tis better to suffer together than alone, my friend.

ION, I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow. I'm keeping the length in front (just below chin-length) and having the back chopped all to hell. It's too shaggy back there for my taste. I'm getting color, too, cut I haven't decided what yet...

Happy National Day of Prayer!

Well, it IS. And, for those of you who obsessively catalog every detail of my life (Files and Records), you know that my Big!Boss, who is a born-again Christian, gives us Nat'l Day O' Prayer as a paid holiday every year.

It was awesome. I slept in, had lunch (sushi!) with my mom, went shopping, and took a nap. I bought this dress, which looks utterly sassy on me.

I also had a proper bra fitting, and it turns out that I am one of the tiny percentage of women who is wearing the correct bra size. When I asked why my boobs weren't supported well, I learned that I was wearing my bra incorrectly. How can one wear a bra incorrectly? I was pulling the underwire all the way under my girls, flush against my ribcage, which let my boobs hang over a bit. Apparently the underwire is supposed to sit under the girls, but not so far under as to allow boobage to hang over. So when I adjusted things properly, suddenly everything was where it should be. Woot!

Interesting underwire positioning. Is it comfortable, Tep?

I love the dress. It's sasstacular!

Interesting underwire positioning. Is it comfortable, Tep?

Yeah -- I think the point that the fitting woman was trying to make was that, if my boobs are hanging over the underwire, the bra isn't functioning correctly. I asked if that meant I needed a larger cup size, but she said no, and even fetched me some bras with a D cup so that I could see where (and how) they'd be too big.

I'd be happy to lose a cup size and go back down to being a B cup. Nothing hung over anything when I was a B.

Cindy, how'd the party go?
