How Not to Get a Job. 23 March, 2010 at 8:44 am ( SuperGay. This Can't Be Good. This was too good not to share…. A friend of mine was interviewing people for a position in his department at work. He had an interview with one person – and two days later got the following email from that person, via facebook. (. Note: names have been redacted, and I asked my friend’s permission before I posted this. She was my bestest friend while I was in college… then she had to go and move away ; (. Let’s just say...

I Have My Own Name, Thanks. 22 December, 2009 at 11:53 am ( Michelle Obama. Looking up some info for work, and I found out something interesting:. 1 First Ladies of the U.S., both current and former, are all honorary chairs of The Kennedy Center. The times are a changin’, it seems. Good! Oh, and another random fact: most of the rest of the board for the Kennedy Center was either appointed by the President or designated by an act of Congress.

Scissor Sisters and the Power of the Internets. 19 March, 2010 at 1:20 pm ( Concert. On March 1st, tickets went on sale to see the Scissor Sisters. In concert. This was great for a few reasons:. 8211; They haven’t been on tour in nearly three years. 8211; They haven’t had a new album in 3 1/2 years, but finally have one coming soon. 8211; They would inevitably be playing some of the new tunes at this show. 8211; The show was at a super-intimate venue, the Bowery Ballroom.

My First Thespian Experience | Aide-mémoire
https://rosellajo.wordpress.com/2010/01/19/my-first-thespian-experience
My First Thespian Experience. 19 January, 2010 at 6:51 pm ( Miscellaneous. My good friend Dan is a playwright. And I have to say…it wasn’t bad! Well yes, yes I was. Though I think the process of rehearsing/learning lines was almost more nerve-wracking than actually performing the thing! But it went well (if I do say so myself). I did flub a line on the 2nd performance, but (according to the director) I covered it and nobody could tell. 19 January, 2010 at 11:17 pm. 20 January, 2010 at 2:35 pm. Notify me ...

This Girl is a Better Scout Than I Ever Was. 23 March, 2010 at 2:29 pm ( Miscellaneous. Confession: I was a Girl Scout. For a very long time. Like, long after it was okay to be a Girl Scout. And I’m okay with that; I’ve accepted my nerdiness. I don’t need the cookies, they’re definitely not diet-friendly. But still. Anyway, this year, a coworker emailed out that his daughter (a six-year-old Daisy) was selling cookies. Well, they were delivered today – along with a handwritten Thank You note. This Can...

The State of the Union | Aide-mémoire
https://rosellajo.wordpress.com/2010/01/28/the-state-of-the-union
The State of the Union. 28 January, 2010 at 11:13 am ( Civil Rights. Okay, while I would love to write all about this – I actually do need to work. Terrible, right? But I wanted to just mention one thing…. I have become frustrated with how President Obama has handled “the gay issues” (Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell and the Defense of Marriage Act). I, along with many, feel he hasn’t done all he could (and should! But I started thinking… The first time a president ever mentioned advocating for gay rights in ...
