Misread
I like trying to parse out what vanity plates are trying to convey.
Seen Friday before going to Baycon -
DVLUKNO
Rik interpreted it correctly as Devil You Know.
I on the other hand saw - Devil? Uk! No!

I had no idea
That I was so well thought of.
The coordinator for the Odyssey program tonight told me that when she was trying to find a last minute person for the caning demos...3 people recommended me.

More on Costume
In addition to the Treasure Chest...as a result of a suggestion from a friend of mine who is a master costumer...
I'm adding a pirate booty to my outfit (chest, booty...get it? yeah I know, pretty bad) :)
I finished the clothing part of the outfit last night...and I'll be gluing (adhesing?) more stuff to my chest Saturday night when I wear the outfit.
This Thursday
I'm going to be at Edges, assisting with the Odyssey tasting class (demo?)
The person scheduled to present/demo on caning had to cancel...and for some strange reason I got asked to fill in.
Anyone else going?

Full Of Fail
So, the company that wanted me to interview for an Office Manager position finally called me back this morning (after promising to call me back before the end of last week).
They decided to continue looking for someone with more facilities, and office space management skills.
I told them from the get-go that I did not have these skills...and I really feel like the last 3 weeks has been a total waste of my time & energy.
To add insult to injury...
I get a call from this company
http://www.insightglobal.net/aboutus.html
A temp agency for IT jobs is calling me? But...my background is Human Resources and (over 6 years ago) Accounts Payable.
They wanted to talk to me about a job at VMWare as a Financial Analyst. I asked the recruiter what in my resume led her to believe that I was qualified for that job. She said 'well you have a payroll background...' I said, yeah and I'm in Human Resources, not Accounting. 'But...you do payroll, that should be ok...'
I politely thanked her for calling but said I was going to pass on the position.

Update of the Update
The 2nd interview is on 5/9.
Now the question is...do I keep submitting resumes (if there's anything worth it), or hold off?
I haven't submitted any in 2 weeks...but there also has been nothing that's said WOW to me either.
