Yeah, but you know you'll think about it tomorrow now! :laugh:

Yep, absolutely - in fact, I'm sitting here laughing at my seat as I type...ROFLMBO...

[/b]

I say wear the suit. Who cares if they know? Maybe it'll make them realize what they'll be missing out on.

I've got it on right now...it's really beautiful and I feel very powerful!

[/b]

Hehehe, now THAT I've gotta see! Promise me if it happens, you'll assure us somebody will be standing in the wings taking video! :lol:

okay - will do...however, if the lens gets blood-smeared, it ain't my fault! :tt1:

Well, true... may not be something you wanna put on a resume: Typing, filing, ghetto rumbling...

Sure - that could come in handy during corporate takeovers...

Beth and Ebony-praying, chanting, ancient nekkid rain dancing, etc... for both of you in your interviews. I would suggest you not imagine me doing the nekkid dance for fear you out right laugh during the interview. Much success to you both!

Thanks, slim! It's rainy here today, so somebody has been practicing their ancient nekkid rain dancing...we're supposed to have rain the next two days! :eek:

If it helps, remember that I am in the same boat as you at the very same time. Imagine me imagining my potential new boss in his boxers.QUOTE]

It's sexist comments like this that keep me and my fellow men under "the glass ceiling".

Plain, Plain, Plain...don'tcha know there are benefits to a glass ceiling? At least that's what us WOMEN have been dealing with for years! :tt2:

Hells yeah! Bust out the shiv!!

Actually, I prefer a high-velocity automatic weapon...the ones you can cut trees down with (think Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator)

Too late. I'll be thinking of it all night. And I mean that every bit as creepy as it sounds.....Bwahahahahahaha

You are just too funny!

I've been able to give my new camera a real workout and got some great bird pics!

Your bird pics are awesome...I'm such a photog-head (worked as a pro photographer for a while) that I'd be hard pressed to get any WORK done...

Here are some links to the slideshows, for those who want to see them all, but I'll embedding my favourites coz I think they came out really well!

Going to the slide shows now...you always do a great job!

Ha!! The only reason you are staying under that glass ceiling is so that you can look up the skirts of the women who've climbed above you!!!

Ain't THAT the truth! :lol:

Ebony and Beth, thoughts and prayers are coming your way for the jobs! I pray you both get them. That way the world might see something new.........All your friends here dancing nekid all at once because you got the jobs. LOL. Who is always talking about dancing nekid?:party::w00t::rolleyes:

G4E - I love the little dancers! Thanks for the good wishes - will definately check in tonight to let everyone know how it's going...

Thanks everybody - you are truly good friends and I :wub: ya!

3yrs ago hubby and i flew to seattle and for 2wks drove down the PCH down to San Diego - never really knowing what we were doing each day. my favorite trip so far - so i have no idea where we're going, but i'm guessing my blackberry storm will work, and i can read LBT on the road & take pics for FB.

YAAAAY!!! I love feeling powerful. It usually happens when I have DH in a headlock, but... I'd take getting it from a suit!

Sure - that could come in handy during corporate takeovers...

Hmmm, didn't think of that!

Thanks, slim! It's rainy here today, so somebody has been practicing their ancient nekkid rain dancing...we're supposed to have rain the next two days! :tt2:

What she said, INCLUDING the part about the rain. We had a military thing we were going to in DC last night that, right as we got there, got cancelled because of the lightening storm that was coming. Boo. :tt1:

Plain, Plain, Plain...don'tcha know there are benefits to a glass ceiling? At least that's what us WOMEN have been dealing with for years! :rolleyes:

Yeah!!! Wait... WHAT benefit?? I thought it just "was."

Me too!

Thanks everybody - you are truly good friends and I :w00t: ya!

BEST WISHES, EBONY AND BETH!!! Fingers and toes crossed, prayers being said, ummm, no nekkid dance tho. Might scare the kiddo. I'm trying to NOT have to pay for therapy later, or at least put it off as long as possible! LOL!!

I hope you get over those migrains soon. I haven't evern experienced one, but I worked with a lady that had them badly. She passed out during a training class from the pain.

Thanks. Had one blow up on me last night. I've never passed out or thrown up, tho have gotten nauseated and have had to go to bed with them. They suck.

UGH! I'm going to have to get back on the bookworm site and see if I can get it for my ipod then.

I'm back at Argyle for my last swing before starting the new job. As it turns out, I had fortuitously arranged for my parents to come and visit the mine site this week (as they were travelling through the area on holiday). I took yesterday and today off work and we have spent the time looking around the area and doing some serious birdwatching. I've been able to give my new camera a real workout and got some great bird pics!

Here are some links to the slideshows, for those who want to see them all, but I'll embedding my favourites coz I think they came out really well!

GREAT pics Fanny! Love the one with your folks.

Ha!! The only reason you are staying under that glass ceiling is so that you can look up the skirts of the women who've climbed above you!!!

:smile2: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: That was a good one, Fanny!

Cool! Hope you have a wonderful time! Maybe start hinting about a road trip to Yosemite and then you could meet up with me while here! :)

PJTP: okay, just had one of those "no one is there" phone calls and now my portable phone is blinking and telling me that I have a new voice mail. Only problem is I don't HAVE voice mail and I answered the call!!!!! Now I can't get the dumb light to stop blinking!! I even popped the battery out to see if it would reset it. I'm going to put it back on the charger and see if that works.

So strange, no voice mail, no call waiting, simple plan with only caller id and now this! UGH!

I'll check in later to see about Beth and Ebony. Gotta go try to fix the dumb phone! TTFN!

Congrats, Mac. What's a MOP finish?

MOP = Middle of the pack. Usually I'm BOP - back of the pack. Or, as I prefer to think of it FBOP - at the front of the back of the pack. :)

Ha!! The only reason you are staying under that glass ceiling is so that you can look up the skirts of the women who've climbed above you!!!

I think that's a glass floor!

Thanks, Slim. :smile2:

Well... I felt the interview went well, but... I don't know. It sounds like he's restructuring his office and looking to add an associate. And the girl he has running the office is moving back home, so that's where the admin thing comes in.

It sounds as if he's not sure if he wants an attorney who can do some admin stuff or wants an associate AND an admin person... I don't know if HE knows what he wants yet. He said he will sit down with the girl who is leaving, try to plan a strategy as to where he wants this all to go, and conduct additional (second?) interviews.

He DID say that after knowing me and working with me in the courts for a few years, he was impressed by my professionalism, ability to handle the job, and personality. The other thing I also have going for me (according to him) over many of the other applicants he's had (OVER 100!!) is that, having worked in the courts as I did, I have an understanding of how the courts work.

I guess I'm just confused as to what he's trying to do and whether I will fit the changes he's trying to implement. It was nice interviewing with somebody I know and who knows some of what I can do, so that's good.

I guess I just don't know how to react to the interview. :)

Maybe seeing you is what made him start thinking about adding both? I can't see him having you come in just for giggles and grins, so let's stay positve!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
