Done doing the LJ-procrastination thing. Thanks, everyone, for the fun reads. Now on to figure out what the hell I'm gonna wear tomorrow.

If you dressed like a Valkyrie, they'd be sure to remember you specifically at the job interview.

I don't know that it's that competitive but if it is, that's one sure fire way to stay in their minds.

Um, yeah, thanks for the tip!

I have narrowed down the choices. (The guy, who was a really good interviewer and seemed to think I did well on the phone, said to dress "business casual".)

1) See-through, wine-colored, button-down shirt over lace camisole, and my long, slinky black skirt
2) Cream-colored dress with a button-down shirt over it (the shirt is also not opaque)
3) The long black skirt with a black mock-turtleneck sweater, probably too warm for a day when I'm feeling nervous

Leaning toward #1, mainly because my closed-toed shoes are black. I could wear my pumps, but they're a bit too tight for walking around in (they were bought for other purposes), and the Birks and stilettos are probably bad choices for different reasons.

More than you wanted/needed to know, I'm sure.

I vote for #1

Good luck tomorrow, Girlness.

Going to make cream of cock-a-leekie soup now.

Did you know that half and half has half the carbs of heavy cream? Weird.

Love you.

Went and looked at a "business casual" website and now I feel like I really should wear a jacket. ;-) So I'm wearing the slinky skirt, the black mock-turtleneck, and the sage jacket. How was the soup? *smooch*

The Soup

I think it's okay, but we'll have to see what everyone else thinks. It's my turn to bring lunch for the crew at Lucky Mojo. (It's a weekly thing, with enough people participating that we each have a turn about every six weeks.)

Soup ingredients (in order of addition) are:

Olive Oil and butter (for sauteeing the leeks)
Leeks
Fresh ginger
Chicken broth
Chicken
Fresh dill
Half and Half
Nutmeg

Mmmmmmmmm

Yumma!

(Kicked ass at the interview. And I typed 91.5 wpm! I didn't even know I could do that!)

Consensus was, it's good soup! Served it with extra dill, for those who wanted more, and garlic butter flavored croutons. Deeelish!

Hope to be able to come down tomorrow night, but not sure. Friday at the latest.

Love you, my Girlness.

Missed us, eh? ;-)

I vote for #2. Don't know why, probably because I want to see everyone in light colors in this weather :).
