Just Another Manic Monday

Monday, January 21st, 2008

My clothes are basically laid out but they aren’t seeming to hop into my suitcase on their own. I guess I should be packing.

Double Standards

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

I am wishing I had more consistent readers right now - ones that would provide comments and feedback.
Today was full of meetings. With this contract, I am one of only 3 women consistently in our meetings. And yes, I admit (and not in a conceited way) that I am the most attractive. [...]
