SNOW!
Reply #315 - Nov 30th, 2005 at 11:01pm
 
It snowed last night. I was so excited to take snow pictures today. The first snow is always the best, and then it just gets muddy and nasty. Eventually it gets below-zero. everything is just nasty, and everyone gets extremely irritable. So far we have a good five or six inches of fresh snow (slightly compacted by gravity). The novelty hasn't worn off yet, but it will.

TMI:
(There is also a giant 8-foot penis sculpture in the neighborhood. It was huuuge. At first I thought it was a caterpillar, but... Shocked)


a indecisive defiant deciduous that is still green for some reason
...

the neighborhood
...

Foliage or herd of lemmings?
...

Bushes or mushrooms?
...

Hair, shortened by 2" from high collared sweater.
Snow is too white to brighten the photo. Ansel Adams had it tough!

On another note,

Secret Santa Buddy, have you received my package yet? I hope it hasn't gotten lost in the snowy postal season.

Athingy sculpture? I hope it's not what I think it is.

Moving on, the photos of your neighborhood are really pretty! Oh, to have snow in my area...sometimes. ^^

About the secret santa giftie, the mail has been acting rather strange lately (at least in my experiences). It took two weeks for a package sent by priority mail to arrive from Georgia. Yet I sent something to Washington, DC and it only took one day (also using priority mail). Weird. I wouldn't worry yet; your person should be getting her gift soon.   Smiley

Yesterday I checked my mailbox...and I got a special delivery from Anais!  I got a CUUUTE pair of gloves as my secret santa gift!  They have pink, purple, and blue stripes.  I am glad I opened them when they arrived.  I have very long fingers, and the gloves are long enough.

I really like them.  They will see tons of use!  I'm so sentimental -- I'll keep them forever.

Your hint about work ethic was a great present, too.  Sometimes I feel like work ethic is overlooked in my major.  Thank you for your kind words, hun!

Yesssss they got there safely Cheesy Glad you like them, Pan!

my new hair resolutions for 2006
(1) Reach a length that "looks tailbone" not IS tailbone... so about almost-classic.  And some of it should probably be trimmed off for all that inevitable combing damage. (I find that combing causes damage too, causing "stressed" hairs that have been stretched too hard but not snapped)
(2) Drink more green tea - my green tea habit has gone downhill lately
(3) Be happier with my length and not get hair anorexia, be happy with my thickness, especially as my hair gets longer and more difficult to work with.
(4) Figure out a better way to position a figure 8 bun because this current method hurts, dammit.
(5) Learn how to do Leia's Swirly Bun, dammit.
(6) Eat more cheese for that much-needed calcium.

Other resolutions
(1) Manage time more effectively
(2) Become less dependent on technology
(3) Do meal planning on weekends instead of weekdays
(4) Manage finances well, open and fund a retirement account
(5) Devote more time to sewing
and the hard one...
(6) Learn to live without K as my best friend and soul mate.

Yesterday recap for hair
Reply #321 - Dec 2nd, 2005 at 5:00pm
 
Hair. Yesterday I wore my hair in a cinnabun with a single indigo royal Mamacat corkscrew stick to the job interview at the board meeting. Then I took it down and put it in a single braid after I was through. It was a relatively long day and I worked yesterday evening, so it's REALLY NICE that my scalp isn't acting crazy or getting itchy. Hair loss should be expected soon but I don't notice much of it. I should be losing a lot of hair from this stress from the situation involving K., but.. what can ya do. Last night was crazy. I stayed up until 2am writing.

and of course.. REVELING in the fact that I was hired to a
management position
. Grin Grin

If this helps anyone, here are some of the interview questions in simplified form. I tried to make them applicable to anyone:
  • What do your responsibilities entail right now and how will they help you fulfill your new responsibilities?
  • There could be questions about your current work, to see how well you know your stuff, and how well you can explain it to others. They can ask you stuff that is already in your personal statement or resume to see if everything matches.
  • What changes to the program/design/current setup will you make, if any?
  • What ethical considerations will govern your decisonmaking in such-and-such matters? What are your concerns?
  • They might ask you a question that you don't know how to answer. How answer them.. matters! ("seek advice, ask an advisor, etc.")
  • What is your comfort level in your current work environment with the current people

    ha! i replied about the same in galadriel's thread  Cheesy
    i also want at the same time to remove around 4"  Roll Eyes wonder if that goal will be reachable (although, i think i cut  almost 4" this year too and am - i think - 4" longer than last year. who knows  8)

    Way to go, Anais!!  Cheesy

    You are going to rock this management position!  Wink

    Also, you'll probably find that working a lot will really help you to deal with your recent heartbreak. Not just because it provides a needed distraction, but it helps you to keep everything in perspective.
        I worked my tail off for over a year after my divorce (mostly to pay off the settlement & rebuild my life), balancing 3 night jobs. It seems crazy now, but at the time it was actually kind of fun. I made a lot of $$$ (which is never bad!) and bolstered my professional & social lives, so it was quite helpful with what I was going through. I wish you that same success at the very least.  Kiss

    BTW, thanx for all of the info about cones. I'm still debating whether or not they work for me.

    Best of luck in your new position!  Smiley
