Would I trade in the Green/Gold for Black/Purple? Well, no. But I might add Black/Purple if I end up over there. At least they are in a different league and I could love them both up to the World Series.

It isn't a solid lead yet, but I have another person who said I could use them as a reference and she encouraged me to contact a few specific people.

I hate the idea of leaving the Bay Area, but I wonder if it would help CJ to start over in a new place. I just worry about my mom, she gets cold enough here and would come to Denver if I move there...

No idea what will happen in the long run. I'm here until June at the very least...gotta see the girl through graduation.

Daisy, fwiw I heard the same thing on my last trip overseas. Also, belated Birthday Happies!

I am so tired and cranky, and I just can't wait for my mood to kick over into something else.

I figure after now (like, starting tomorrowish, for the next couple weeks) is actually the best time to be travelling! Too late for most Thanksgiving travellers, too early for Christmas, no one is taking random flights between those...business travelers, GO!

VW, that does sound sucktastic--I'll go read on LJ.

In other news, the crazy not-boss lady who was making me nutty? I talked to my actual boss about her yesterday, and explained that I knew I was reacting badly (getting *obviously* pissy and resentful when I perceived her as being patronizing), and was it just me, or did other people have issues, and what could I do?

And boss was like "yeah, I've been sensing that". And then came to a meeting that afternoon, and MAD put the lady on the spot. Which was a bit uncomfy. But lady's answers were crap, which was kinda satisfying....

And today? She fired the lady!!

More work for me, but less drama. Whew!

And today? She fired the lady!!

Awesome! Sounds like your boss backs you up. Priceless.

I just started today. But thank you so much for continually pimping Fred's blog. It's now a must read for me.

Also, I have now consumed ramen. It really hit the spot. And is the first thing I've had since this all started that tasted normal.

I'm back from class. Did my oral presentation. I got nervous and rambled for 10 minutes and didn't stay on point. But at least it's over.

Our papers aren't graded. She said hinted (not in front of class) that they weren't well done. Gee I wonder why?

The official evaluations were tonight so I marked her low on everything and then wrote a page. I'm still writing a letter of complaint.

Seriously. Some people thought the paper was worth 40 points and it's worth 80! That's a big difference.

Now I'm going to run over and check out slacktivist. I occasionally post on there...I think just as ali.

yes, i like my boss so far. though i can see that if you get on her bad side, youre *fucked*. and it doesnt seem super hard to get on her bad side, sadly. in other news, i am at the dyke bar, drinking a beer and hoping the fabled scrabble bitches show up soon...i hate sitting alone.
