You guys, these notes…THESE NOTES!!! I love them and I laugh and yes, sometimes they stab a little bit but ppppffffttthhhhhhh to some (especially the private anonyonotes!). I realize that I can change my settings, but truthfully I get a kick out of them. I mean, if I’m gonna show my shit online I might as well go all the way and let people write what they want, right?

That’s why I still try to keep some anonymity around here. Facebook is one thing, but this is another. So, note on, you crazies (my cuss button is even engaged!) and I’ll love you all the more!

To the naysayers all I can say is, you don’t know me. I only put what I want in this diary. You have NO idea about certain aspects of my life. Plus, it might help if you actually go back and read earlier entries. It might give you a better sense of who I am (might not, but it’s better than jumping straight to conclusions, no?). I may not be the most noble creature here, but even I do my research before I open my mouth or type comments.

Oh, and I did want to clarify something. I’m not a writer. I mean, I don’t claim to be a pro at it by any means. It’s just something that I like to do. So that gig that I got? It wasn’t for my writing skills, that’s for sure. Yes, I did a report, and yes, I submitted it and invoiced the company for my work. But it was NOT a writing assignment, ya dig? I know I’m not the most grammatically correct. I know I don’t follow the rules of proper writing. But I know what I can do and I know I can do it well, and this company saw that and asked me to do what I do for them!

So!

Had a great day so far and it’s not over yet. Sent a bunch of emails, found a few additional places to send rezzies, and then hoofed it out to a couple of different places where I actually spoke to more people in person. If nothing else, I think I’ll get a Holiday gig out of this. We’ll see.

While I was out and about I got a phone call from the VP of HR for a particular company who is looking to fill a position that would be PERFECT for me!!! The only downer? Location. I’m not going to say where yet. I don’t want to jinx. We set up a phone interview for Wednesday, so please send gooooooooood vibes my way, thanks (this means YOU TOO, mean noters)!

Then, I took myself to lunch. It is the most gorgeous day–ever. I sat outside and had a salad and a glass of Pinot Grigio. Most delicious.

THEN!!!! There’s a brand new yogurt place around the corner from where I was having lunch. They are giving away yogurt samples and have been for several days now. Um, this is my third day in a row. This stuff is insanely yummy, and you can bet that I will be a regular customer from now on. Excellent marketing, berryberry!

I forgot to tell you something the other day. I cut bangs into my hair. Yes, I did. I am now the proud owner of my very own fringe! I’d been thinking about doing the bang thing for a long while now (after all, they’ve been back a couple of years now), but it took so damn long to grow my fringies out several years ago. I haven’t had a haircut in like 4 months (been trying to save $$), so I desperately needed a trim. And trim I did! I may post a faves-only pic sometime in the near future. We’ll see. Watch for it.

BUT. I’m going to an event tonight (a friend and an old colleague are showcasing some of their wares) at a super-trendy hair salon and I’m kinda nervous about it. Will they know I took scissors to head? Probably. Oh well. Too late to do anything about it now! Can’t wait to report back on that one! Guess who’s going to be there? K. Eek.

Okay, off to do more superficial things! See you tomorrow for SURE!

XO.
