the newer ones don't understand how it would be perceived and are under the thrall of the least-new. Who I just turned down for a raise.
All is now clear. I hope that the end result is better for you than for the least-new, Jesse.
It's kind of you to help your friend, msbelle. It'll be a hard thing for them on multiple levels.
Sorry about the frames, Connie.
Laura, it's so nice to see the family develop toward the future.
As many of you might remember, I've been looking to move back to MI to be closer to family and further from NC summers. Well, this coming Monday I have a Skype interview for a job near Bay City, about an hour and a half from my sister. So any interview~ma that might be available would be appreciated, please.
That is super weird, Jesse. And awkward. Grrr.
Laura, I think OrangeTheory is national (at least, it's in sesttle also)
Today is my last full day in Mexico! I want to go home but don't want to go back to work. Or cold.
Interview ~ma, Calli!
Sip a margarita for me!
Well, I am on my way to the hour long torture session at OrangeTheory. If you don't hear from me later send condolences to Brendon. Since friend is doing this it will be easier because of the having to show up part. It is more expensive than I would like, so they will have to do a good job with their pitch today. If I survive. Here's hoping all the skinny 20 somethings take pity on the old fat lady.
Connie, I've gotten a couple of pieces of art by 20×200. I just bought a frame but you can buy them framed. I was very happy with the quality of the print itself...I think it came flat but it's been 5 years so I'm not sure.
(Not sure of your taste, but I bought a Jennifer Sanchez piece and adore it.)
Jesse, why would HR even entertain that? HR should've sternly reminded them of protocol and sent them off. That's just weird.
Working from home, sometimes I feel like I'm at a disadvantage because I'm not in the thick of office politics. Most times, I'm glad I'm not. I don't want to advance, just hang on until retirement, so I don't care.
Good luck, Calli!
On the good-news front, they said they would call by Thursday if my mammogram needed followup, and they haven't called!
That is good!
Connie, it sounds like they know the have a problem and have decided it's easier to do the refunds than fix the problem. So, yeah, if framed art is what you want don't count on them.
Have fun storming the gym, Laura!

I took a look at their selection, and they've got some really nice Japanese woodcuts. I'm looking for Art Deco-ish things, but I'll need to see what my wall space looks like after the furniture rearranging.
I lived! It was a very intense hour, but each person was doing their own thing and although clearly the oldest and largest I wasn't at all uncomfortable. So GF and I are scheduled to do this M-F at 5:30 PM. She wanted to do mornings, but I am not ready to give up my coffee and internet time. She is doing weekends too, but my body needs recovery time.
Timelies all!
Tonight Gary and I are going to a concert by the Four Bitchin' Babes. Should be fun, since we haven't seen them in a few years. (and especially since this lineup includes Christine Lavin.)
