Because books.

Now I want a bagel. And even in upstate New York it's hard to find a true one.

Toasted with butter, please. And not too much.

Spinach bagel toasted with either provolone or a THIN slather of fresh veggie cream cheese.

I had homemade butter made by some Amish ladies at a farmers market the other day. OMG so good, but I couldn't really justify buying a two-pound blob of the stuff, which is how they were selling it.

Two pounds of butter would go like *that* in my house.

I agree that good, especially homemade, bread is delicious in its virgin state, but some days bread is simply a vehicle for butter consumption.

I think today is one of those days. I need to try Irish butter.

Vortex, I think that it can be interchangeable, but I tend to think of a CV (in academia) being much longer and more comprehensive than a resume--a CV would list most if not all articles you've published, things like that, and might have less about actual duties in jobs (more just "professor of medicine, U of X, 1996-present, maybe some comittees or something), whereas a resume would be shorter, the highlights version, and probably have more about what the jobs actually involved.

But I could be wrong, this is just based on what all the freakin' doctors from academic places send when they sent their CVs. Which can be bloody annoying when it's 75 pages long.

I think you're right. For this position, it's just wierd. Perhaps they meant that you could attach either, because when I went with just the resume it didn't tell me that the app was incomplete.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I know there's a German word for how I've just been smacked in the face. Someone with whom I really don't get along has been very different lately, and much easier to get along with.

Why? Because her husband was dying of cancer, I have now found out.

Fuck, I feel like a heel for having been so relieved.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Dana!!!!

Don't feel bad, you had no idea. You didn't wish it on her. And, if she was difficult before and not so much now, it sometimes takes a tragedy for people to get things in perspective.

Congrats, Dana!
