pipistrellafelixNot for the first time in my life, I bless sunscreen, & curse however it was that I missed random places while applying it--which means that although my Saturday beach excursion with the SU kids left me mostly still disturbingly pale, I have patches of lobster pink on my shoulders and back. Which would be okay--except that they itch like hell. Is this what a snake feels like?
Also, my wrists have been horribly sore, & painful when I try to bend them, because I played volleyball with bad technique.
Overall, a good day at the beach, I feel. This weekend there was also dinner with Elsa & The Life Aquatic and home-made sno-cones & sleeping in far too late & spending hours upon hours at the library, collecting possible plays for honors. That was exciting; I missed the library. (Although, my god, I still maintain that the new central branch is the most confusing maze I have ever been in.)
To round all this off, I found the most wonderfully amusing ad on gmail this morning...
For those who haven't heard me complain about this before, my job involves calling people about their resumes & pre-lim interviewing them, before booking interviews for the HR department of an insurance company. It's not the worst thing ever, but I'm not the biggest fan of calling people who have no idea who I am to get them to come in for an interview (as is the case when I get resumes from online databanks, as opposed to when my manager send me them.)
So today I am flipping through my manager's emails, & look up at the top of the screen, & what helpful ad has gmail found for me today? Why, this one, of course:
Honey, I could write that book. :D
