I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good luck, amyth! I've never sent post-interview notes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am a firm believer in thank-you notes, but also anyone I'm hiring is writing thank-you notes as part of their job.

I'm pretty sure I will do them, but I'm going to wait until the morning. Somehow, I managed to go without eating all day. Worst! I'm now experiencing full body meltdown. I'm going to eat and then crash before it gets dark out.

All those places look pretty terrific, shrift!

OK, self. Remember all those things you would rather have been doing than working? Time to get to it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Congrats, Kate!

Sorry about the sucky day, Zen.

Amyth, I sent thank you notes, but I still spent nine months unemployed, so I don't know that they did any good.

July 9 is a good date for a birthday.

Massive crazy hour long, constant booming rainstorm here. Made me quite happy.
