But here's a question: should a resume be written in 1st person? Like, "I did x and I did that"? Because a former coworker, a tech editor, edited my resume that way and it just looks weird to me. Is that the thing now?

In a cover letter, but on the resume I've rarely seen it that way. It would strike me as a little odd.

Resume used power verbs, no first person. Cover letter, more braggy; I oversaw; I developed.

Skills fit the position vs. I have these, choose me.

One unlocks the door; the other opens it up. You have to walk over the threshold and put the chokehold on the job.

Right, that's what I thought. So confused. Thing is, the guy who did the editing is an old friend & the husband of my old boss, who offered his services as a favor. Well, I just won't send that one around, I think...

I worked all day and now my brain is toast. But DH has decided to take advantage of the free HBO and gorge on GoT. I hadn't watched it before, but it goes down surprisingly easy.

Timelies all!

Groceries and basketball. That's my day.

First church service down. Now an hour and 20 minutes until the next.

mac did get himself and ready on time this morning. all praise be to the Great Spirit.

That child is gonna wear me out, but I listened to Mr. Bill Withers this morning and decided come hell, high water, or moody mac - I will have a Lovely Day.

Yay Mac! Keep up the good stuff, kiddo.

Well done, lad!

Timelies, all... we did the Easter vigil last night, including a bonfire and a candlelit procession out front, three grown-up baptisms with a big warm tub and a conch shell, and a late-night potluck feast afterward, during all of which Matilda was a complete and utter charming boo. She kept hovering around the potluck table, pointing out our macaroni salad and encouraging everyone in line to try it, then running back to me to report on its consumption (she herself had none, owing to the dubious presence of celery, but she may try it later today in the car on the way home).

Then Easter egg hunting first thing this morning, pancakes imminent, and then the drive home with the stereo all loaded with Greg Brown and Cheryl Wheeler and all the music that gives Emmett hives.

Happy Easter, happy eggs and chocolate, happy lazing-around-deliciously-doing-nothing day, and even happy productive day and onerous task day for those who need one.

That is some comprehensive and sweet well-wishing, JZ! I will second it.

My nod to Easter is wearing baby blue sweatpants and a bright pink top - they are both spattered with paint and stains and so excellent for yard work, etc., but I usually try to pair each with a more subdued partner if I'm going to be where people can see me (like in the front yard) but today it's thematic.

I am also wearing pretty alarming footwear, but that has nothing to do with the holiday. Flip-flops, but with four thongs so all my toes are separated. I am prepared for the shunning.

I am all decked out in a bright blue and red coat to go to Mass. First time in years we won't be having an Easter dinner, since Mom can't get into the car. So we will have lunch at the ALF with them instead.
