    Love the new avatar, Roxy! You look so pretty!
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    Thanks, everyone. I needed some new head shots because I'm overhauling my website and job hunting. DH bought me a great camera a while back and we've been adding to our equipment with the intention of taking it to the professional level. I'm almost there - studying hard and working on my portfolio.

    I think he did a pretty good job.

    Dear client,

    Thanks for giving me the great gig, but starting tomorrow morning? Really? We just met today. That's some fast turnaround. I guess I should be getting myself to bed if we're going to kick off first thing in the morning.

    Thankful but tired,

    You look great, Roxy!

    Dear Neck and Shoulder Muscles:
    I cannot control what Immune System is doing. So I'm sorry if you were damaged by an pollen-induced sneezing fit on the bike yesterday. However, we have things to do tomorrow (like ensuring you don't hurt while riding the rest of the time), so I'd appreciate it if you'd stop swelling and leave Nerve alone. Nerve would also appreciate it.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear Self,

    Do not send out any more cover letters while sleep-deprived. Now 3 different hospitals know that you were applying to one specific hospital and I'm sure that won't put you at the top of their new hires list

    Whoa, Roxy, love the new avatar! It's gorgeous.

    Congrats Trek and Knotted. Good luck with everything.

    Dear weather,

    give it a break already. The heat is nice but needing three showers a day and having the sweat start even before I step out of the shower might border on ridiculous. That sort of weather is for June. You have another three months to go. Now go back to sleep.

    Dear brain,

    quit reading the leaflet on the steroid eye drops that say you'll get glaucoma and go blind if you keep using it. Its a sad reality of our life. It's either potential glaucoma or I claw my eyes blind from the itch of conjunctivitis that no anti-histamine eyedrops can give relief to. Pick one.

    All the best to Trek and Knot...


    Hmmm...Pac Bell...collections...*embarrassed*...I wonder I ever had the benefit of your professional services way back when I was a Bay Area undergrad delinquent Pac Bell customer....but maybe it was only PG&E...
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    I was only in collections department for 6 months but if you'd talked to me I was about as friendly a rep as they go . I transfered to another department called D&A, then called PBAR, then called STAR, then called a half dozen or so department name changes after that but was a great job, that office moved, moved again, and again ... then our jobs went to Missouri we all went to a different departments ...
