working life: third rotation

I'm a semi-free woman! Well, at least for 2 days or so. Last day of my rotation. I will miss Wendy a ton, but I'm very ready to move on. I just hope this next rotation is challenging and exciting and allows me to, oh I don't know, do something a little technical? I've noticed…

I literally cannot wait to be done with this rotation. I had a pitch this morning for my greenbelt project, and then I had a pitch this afternoon in front of the CIOs. He said it didn't sound like our business is ready for the tool we just implemented yet. Great. I have another pitch…

Long ago I swore of new years' resolutions; I quite frankly don't believe in them. But I have made some resolutions that have absolutely nothing to do with the new year. Instead, I'm going to call this "Finding Erin." I said it myself - I'm boring. But I wasn't always this way. Really, I wasn't!&...

Do not settle. Do not under-sell yourself. Do not date a guy to simply date - have high standards. High standards for how he treats you, high standards as far as mutual respect, high standards for intelligence.To clarify, treating you well does not in any way include buying things for you, and if...

So I started a new website shortly before the wedding, and it includes a spot for a blog and all that. I'm not switched over yet, and I may never (it's more of a fun sandbox for website dev and all that), but I just wrote a second entry up there and thought it would…

As I may have mentioned before, I recently started reading a fantasy novel that is part of Chris' absolute favorite series of all time. (He's not even done with the series yet, but he's enamored.) But last night instead of opening it to see what Tattersail would do next, I decided to read a littl...

I have discovered just the most amazing invention. (welcome to the 21st century, self) Podcasts. So you mean to tell me that all of the radio shows on NPR that I love but never catch (unless briefly while driving in my car) I can actually download to my computer and my iTouch and listen to…

I deleted a note. It pissed me off, so I deleted it. I think this may be the first time in over 900 entries, but there it is.I'm on my iI'llCallItWhateverTheHellIWant. (indecision)

I'm so jealous of you all. I really am. Everyone who takes amazing photographs, who writes amazing things, who enjoys dancing and actually takes classes and GOES dancing. The people who go out and campaign for things they believe in, the people who travel to interesting places without thinking tw...

I've been sick for about a week now. I don't think it's anything serious, but I really would like to feel better. I've been lying on my couch since Tuesday, mostly watching tv, and I am getting ridiculously bored. (At least the writer's strike is over and maybe we'll get some new shows back?) I&h...
