Connie, I am on Ravelry with this username.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

In other news, I have bookmarked four different recipes for almond-apricot tarts. I think I will try the Mollie Katzen one: [link] although this one looks good too: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am getting so much conflicting resume advice. I know it's too long--I dropped a page. But if I drop it to ten years, people don't see what a magician I am.
Anyway, once it's in the hands of a recruiter and they work their magic--I can only hope for the best.
Mentor from work called. Apparently the INCOMPETENT woman was fired too, And I keep seeing "New job for XXX!" congratulations emails from people I've taken so many meetings with.
Good luck, company.

Heather, smonster, Nora, for all of you who were lucky enough to have Kara, I am sorry. I didn't get know her, but you brought her to light and got to love her. And this just sucks.

Msbelle, a number of jobs I've applied for asked for transcripts. I was able to go to my college website, set up an alumni account, and download "unofficial" copies in PDF for free. I sent them to potential employers with a note that I'd be happy to send official versions upon request.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Daisy and all, I'm so sorry.

On my way to work, I was listening to the Fresh Air interview with Bobby Womack, which has many great gems, but one thing I learned is that Pam Grier is Rosey Grier's niece! I had no idea.
