The only sport I can really sit and watch is baseball, and that has only been for the last few years. Luckily, TCG doesn't really need to watch any other sports either.

Job~ma, JZ! I hope you hear something good about the job soon.

Look at that beautiful chubby baby! He's like a mini-Manny!

Too cute!

JZ - how did you find a recruiter? Need new job. I said I've give this place to the end of the year, but I'm not so sure about that now.

Though - I did get a response from my old boss.

Ahhh, this makes me SOooo happy I could cry...I am SO glad you stuck with it! You make me proud!!!

I am a puddle.

That's wonderful, Suzi!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Thanks for the ~ma. I just feel all stupid, like a teenager with a crush. I liked them soooooo much, and I was so crushed and despondent when they said no. Am I looking all cheap and easy by being so eager to take their (as yet purely theoretical) sloppy seconds?

eta: I actually have 3 recruiters, two of whom I got through introductions from friends and family and one from answering a Craigslist ad. One recruiter is in Oakland (the one who set me up with the Bad Company interview, but that's no reflection on her). I'd be happy to put you in touch with her.

It sounds like the person they hired instead of you didn't work out, JZ. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

I want to know how Dean and Deluca ships the purse cake.

JZ - I'm open to any networking opportunities.

I am kinda stuck here until February unless I want to pay back $3k in tuition reimbursement (not really). But who knows, for the right opportunity - right???

My friend just got a purse cake for her birthday so I can ask her. I don't think it was Dean and Deluca though.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

uggg, fires suck. The Irvine fire is like 10 exits south of us (like 5 miles or so?). We are getting tons of smoke here at work. My lil office is icky. I walk in and see my office mate wearing a dust mask, I chide him "ya know the a/c's have filters". He says, "ya, just wait". I sit down, wake up the computer, and within a minute I can feel the icky particles in the back of my throat. "let me go to the scene shop and get you a mask too" "thank you!" Ugg. Ick. Worst part, it's hard to stay hydrated with a dust mask on. Tho, in all honesty, all my "problems" is nothing to the peoples lives getting burned up. So, even tho they don't subscribe to this fine list, I'm sending out some ~ma to the region and all the families whose homes are affected by this crap.

And this season, it is FUN to watch the Patriots.

OMG it so is, though I was actually feeling sorry for the Dolphins yesterday by the end (as opposed to Dallas, who I wanted them to stomp all over).

My favorite series was when the Pats brought in their backup QB, who promptly tossed a pick that got ran for a TD. Brady's already been cooling off, but back he comes into the game, and marches down the field to score ANOTHER TD (he had 6 all day). That, and there were two absolutely SICK catches by Moss yesterday.
