Wil Wheaton

OMG. Wesley used the "f" word.

Just kidding. I know, I know, he's Wil, not Wesley.

But still, it's kinda like finding out that the kid who plays Harry Potter was naked on stage for some play about horses.

dude! the future of sewing

Wow. I'd have to take out a small loan to get one of these... but... wow.

Ain't Got a Job Yet Blues

I went to yet another temp agency today, because I had applied for a job online (that was posted by their company)... and had to endure their computerized testing (and even a paper one!).

Now at home, prepping veggies for stew, I have got some serious "got no job" blues.

So I popped in a CD, "About Damn Time" by Andrew Heinrich (aka Mateo) to pick up my spirits.

Because nothing beats having a song written about you. And in it, you totally KICK ASS.

I'm just sayin'.

Why oh why? Woe is me

Ya know, if there were two things I could change about myself (stuff that I have no control over), it would be:
a) my slopey shoulders*, and
b) that I'm such a freakin' CLUTZ. Oy.

Yep, I did it again. This time is really great. I went into the ladies' room after class. Upon exiting the stall, I placed my purse on the edge of the nearest sink (not the floor, 'cuz there's yucky germs all over bathroom floors!). It was rather precarious there, but I figured it would only take a few seconds to pull on my hoodie and my jacket - it should be fine, right?.

No such luck. My purse teetered forwards, which activated the automatic faucet. Aaaaaacccckkkk - lots and lots of water in my purse! I turned it upside down and the water literally drained out in a stream.

My phone is OK, as are most of the contents (some receipts are a bit soggy) - although my Hello Kitty pen case took a hit, but it's fabric so that's OK.

Why, oh why? Le sigh.


* I got my slopey shoulders from my mom's genes - I can't keep purse or bra straps on my shoulders to save my life.

Sniff sniff

As I left MATC tonight and I got my first sniff of the evening air, I expected ... oh, milorganite, cigarette smoke ... but - anise?

Yeah. Wierd. And it continued all the way to my car in the parking lot.

Is it just me?

I think Yahoo has decided it doesn't like me... or, at least, my 'personal' (grnjenny) account. My 'professional' account is working just fine.

I keep getting the "sorry for the inconvenience" message when I try to 'archive' a message into a folder.

Yahoo has been quite quirky lately. It doesn't appear to be my connection - just the one account.

Hmf!

Personal branding

I think this came up on a search for "personal branding,"

I almost skipped it... glad I read it - it's a hoot!
