O_a, I'd take in a nice looking folder and stick some resumes and a pen in there. Because the should have everythingbut I agree about wanting to have something in hand.
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Omnis, do you have a portfolio? Or a "soundfolio" of things you have done?
Kate, understandable! And I am kinda surprised that you haven't had the pangs, hard, already. It's so hard to leave places behind even when the next place is spectacular.
Askye, I keep meaning to comment on how in awe I am of how you're handling everything. I hope the next few weeks are as smooth as can be and that it really fixes all that's wrong.
I asked for, and received, Joy of Cooking for Christmas but have yet to open it.
In order to get the kitchen somewhat unpacked, I unboxed all of my cookbooks, but haven't organized them yet. (Y'all can feel me twitching, right?) My go to basic cookbook is Fannie Farmer, has been for years. I'm like Jessica, though, in that I read a lot of my cookbooks for the anecdotes and to get a feel for an area.
I can't get my arm wet but I have a hand held shower so that may be okay.
The umbrella bags they give away at the supermarket are great for keeping your arm wet dry.
Omnis, it's always good to have copies of your resume, particularly with a "panel," since inevitably at least one person will have forgotten to bring a copy.
I don't know if it's possible to have one basic cookbook. I lean on Joy of Cooking, two different editions of Betty Crocker's Cookbook and the Doubleday Cookbook. I have about 12 linear feet of cookbooks, though.
thanks for the tips. I'll print out some resumes and pack them with me. I made an impulse buy for the trip. I got a cheap-o laptop so I don't have to haul the work macbook with me. I'm paranoid that it will get lost/stolen, and since it's not mine, then I'd have to replace it. So I got a $300 Compaq. Aside from Windows t Mac snob (that tag never closes), it doesn't seem like a bad laptop. DVD burner, Win7, 7200 RPM drive. And I just imported my bookmarks from my iMac. Now to load up some music into iTunes... well, first I need to download iTunes.
And then? Dual-Boot OSX?
it seems crazy to bring copies of my resume
It's not. And listen to the wise Buffistas. There were number of times I walked into a job interview and they lost my resume. I usually bring references, too. And a smile.
And you'll do fine. I have no f-ing doubt about it.
askye, yish! I must have skipped too many times, didn't know this is what you had to deal with. Good luck, honey.
((( SHIR ))) Hey you! Miss ya. Silly work eating all my time.
{{omnis}} missed ya more. Silly semester is eating all of my time.
But today is the last day of it!
