Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Anyone have thoughts on email thank yous vs snail mail ones? As long as I'm in the interviewing mode...Also, interviews in my industry tend to be those "it's six hours and you meet with 15 people"--feelings on just sending to some people? To groups?

I have no advice on interviews, but wish all you interviewees well.

when I had a marathon round of interviews, I wrote to each person who interviewed me specifically. Man, my hand hurt after that.

It could be also appropriate, though, to just send thank you notes to the hiring manager/big cheese/main point of interview contact and be sure to acknowledge the pleasure that it was interviewing with this person's colleagues.

{{{Cashmere and family}}} Oh love, I'm sorry. I, too, am hopeful that further treatment will make it all better.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I've tended to do email thank-yous, especially when it feels like the process is moving fast--if they're planning to make a decision before the snail-mailed thank-you would even get there. And with groups, it kinda depends on the vibe. I sent a group email thanking all three of the people I talked to interviewing for my current job. I think that's against the rules, but here I am.

Wish I could have made it up to Seattle this weekend. Pout.

Juliana, did you still have a trip planned? I haven't heard anything recently.

HEY!!! Standing. Right. Here.

Yeah right, in that 'omnipresent all-over-the-internet- kinda way'. You might as well go all Vorlon on us and do "We have always been here."

Vorlons & Vogons within 50 posts. Huh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yeah, I do email to make sure it gets to them while they are making the decision.

In the world of higher education... (IME)... this is not a problem, as folks tend to move at the pace of lazy glaciers.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Juliana, did you still have a trip planned? I haven't heard anything recently.

I want to plan a trip, but the vroominess sort of took priority. I'm thinking maybe September? October?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, please. Like I'm the fiendiest.
You could be the fiendiest! In a given moment...

Now I get to mention the possibility of you moving here to Cass & Jilli. There will probably be squeeing.
There was sleepified squeeing. Though I really would have more squee if the Portland job wasn't being a poopyhead.

Coffee is delicious!
