for old times sake

I'm one of those total dweebs who enjoys interviews.  Maybe its because I like meeting new people.  More likely its due to the fact that I am fond of talking about myself in a way only an only child can.  Regardless, it was oddly nice to ease back into my groove after more than 3 years off the circuit.

I say "ease" since my appointment this afternoon was just a meeting with a local recruiter, rather than an actual interview.  So fear not - given this glorious economy of ours, there are likely a few more moons of casual wear coming your way!

But for today... another bathroom in corporate America!



And another mirrored elevator!



As you can see, I play it pretty safe when it comes to unknown professional situations.  And had this been a real interview, you would have seen tights or hose, instead of that sweet bruise of unknown origin on my shin.

  8. A. Your hair looks great- good job on the color!
    B. I glanced at outfit without reading text, and thought "Horrors! Kate is not wearing panty hose to an interview!" Then I read, and was very relieved. Such an emotional roller coaster :)

  10. I LOLed about "I am fond of talking about myself in a way only an only child can." I am an only child and I SO the same way being. I wonder if there are a disproportionate amount of only children bloggers?
