Because books.

Tuesday is being way too much like a Monday for me.

Good news on the house stuff, Epic!

And excellent progress on the resume, Zen! But I agree that cover letters are needlessly complicated now.

Jessica, that sounds ... not fun. I only ever ran a Daisy troop once, and that almost did me in. And we didn't even sell cookies.

I would get a flu shot but I've been sick for 10 days without any real getting better, so that's probably out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So today I spent wrestling my resume in order to apply to this job that I think I might really want, and now I have to do a cover letter, which is apparently much more complicated than it used to be, lo these many years ago.

It is not! Just write a thing that says why you want the job and would be good at it! The end.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Been raining all day. Ugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm actually curious -- what's the current advice re: cover letters? Because I promise, the ones I'm getting are just regular AT BEST.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I got up to work and immediately started feeling body aches and blah. Actual illness or just my subconscious sabotaging me?

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

Hilariously, after trying to set up one (1) date with one (1) annoying guy, my mother is giving up on internet dating!

Meant to say earlier, that is both hilarious and awesome!

CoverLetter~ma, Zen!

I still need to get my flu shot. And a snail. These are unrelated items on my to-do list, but maybe I will get them both done tomorrow?

Yes, everyone please go get a flu shot if you can. The flu is bad this year.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Everyone, however, might *not* need to get a snail. Prognoses are a little unclear on that.
