MesaMan, regarding the lovely lizard....I saw some iguanas once. They were so funny to us, the way they bobbed their heads and made faces.

I'm going to bed. See you all tomorrow!

Love from Lenina

Alpha, if you thought you had a bad flight partner, listen to this one. My conservative banker husband ended up on a flight with a woman who was still breastfeeding her preteen child. After eating a bunch of potato chips the child decided to breast feed. Mom feel asleep in the meantime, so did kid, so her giant boob was hanging out with potato chip crumbs all over it. The flight attendant had to wake her up and ask her to cover up.

DD-

I am currently in the process of trying to update my resume. I had a recent realization that I am terrible at selling myself on a paper after attending a presentation on job hunting. My husband saw a resume of someone he knew and he was surprised about the amount of fluff. While I have another semester until I graduate, I've been feeling disheartened about ever finding a job even though I know I would be an asset. Hopefully some of this can be worked out with career services.

Ummmm.....whoa. I, uh,hmmmm. Ok. That is really something else. Goodness gracious. Makes the guy I was sitting next to rather benign no ?

It was the constant wiping of the runny nose with the hands that went back to the computer then back to the nose, incessantly, that was gag worthy. Imagine the horror on my face when I was trying to maneuver all my electronics and he graciously grabbed my nuts to assist.

I just realized how that sounds.

But I'm going to leave it in for a chuckle.

Strat, I'm betting you're overlooking things that are assets! It probably would be helpful to have someone help you with the resume,

AO, being in public these days is pretty gross. I find the language offensive, people are too loud, most folks have very little situational awareness and they get in my way. LOL. Most days I can roll but some days I wish I had laser eyes and could reduce all those who displease me to cinders. Not very healthy but it amuses me.

Today I have stuff. Tonight I have some of the political things I do. I enjoy it and it makes me feel like at least a part of the solution.

AG, um, what ever made you think I was pregnant? That ship sailed oh so many years years ago! I did have step children.

Everyone have a productive day and let us gather here again this evening for a debrief. And no, AG, this doesn't mean you have to take off your BVDs. Just check in and let us know how your day went.

Love from Lenina

Leshar!! OMVG! I'm not a cat! Sheesh! You guys are cray cray!

I'm getting some kittens, not dropping a litter!

Although this is the Internet and I can see the confusion...I mean, Keyboard Cat changed it all.

Love from LeeLee

Strat - I am with you at being awful at selling myself. I feel so uncomfortable about "bragging around" though I realize that there's no use in "false modesty". Since I am trying to get a job at the moment, I've been updating my CV, and spend a lot of time trying to make my best at it. And when I put down all my skills I kind if though "Is that all me?))) Didn't help me to land a job yet though(((

I am going to sleep.

Have a good day all.

Midnight,

I have spent, it seems half of my life looking for a job, I feel like I have done hundreds of interviews, only it probably just feels that way. On the job search process, it is time to cast modesty to the wind. Hell, yeah, you can make the world turn the other way, given half a chance. when you are going for a job you just have to go after them like a pig going for slop. It is not a modest person's task.
