Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

I need to figure out how to network. My job has been making me grind my teeth and say "ok, whatever" way too much lately.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So it's been snowing like a mofo for the last 45 minutes here in Highland Park. What's it doing in Chicago? Still rain there?

Because books.

Maybe pictures of unlikely animal friends will help?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I'm going to this reception tomorrow basically to network. I'm not great at that stuff--like a lot of American women, I'm not trained to puff myself up--but I do like talking about my job.

I don't think networking is about puffing yourself up AT ALL. I think it's about meeting other people with similar (professional) interests and finding some you like.

I wish I could network. I am very shy with people I don't know.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I'm now editing SEO content ... about writing SEO content. I'm all meta'd out.

Heh.

YAY Nillybaby! That is most excellent news! Can't wait to see pictures.

And FTR, I love sopranos! The sopranos in my choir are really lovely people. I just also love altos, and sometimes they are underappreciated (though clearly not around here!). Alto parts can occasionally be really boring, which doesn't help. A song we're currently working on is just about the most boring part I've ever sung:

E D C C
C C C C
E D C C
C C C C
E D C C
C C C C
C C C C
C C C C

It's pretty ridiculous.

In other news, I just had the most delicious salad from a local cafe: roasted brussels sprouts, avocado, fingerling potatoes, golden beets, almonds, feta. SO GOOD. I need to make this at home and eat it for lunch every day from now on.

Huh and I just heard some news that may make the project I'm on less frustrating soon. Potentially.
