Enough of this.

Avast! 'Tis Talk Like A Pirate Day, so if ye no ken what I be sayin', 'twill be the plank for ye! Ye can swim wit' the sharks!

Ahem.

Well, I've finished wallowing in self-pity (I got one evening to do that, then it was done) and I'm looking at other avenues. I've seen something for a tech writer - I've never done tech writing, but I'm thinking it might be interesting. We'll see. Any tech writers on my list got any advice for me?

Today, I'm hoping that I get VTO and can go home early, because this cold is literally kicking my butt. I'm stuffed and miserable, but I'm at work.

And I just got a frog that croaks. Go me!

*Welcome to Val on cold meds.

Edit: Yay! Going home at 10 pm!!! NyQuil, here I come!

It never hurts to apply!

Good luck with VTO and getting healthy!

True. I just need to figure out if I can do what they want me to.

"A frog that croaks?"

Had to ask!

BTW, you're having wayyyyy too much fun with today's "holiday". Didja wear your t-shirt? :P Happy TLAP Day!

Yep. I have a little green stuffed frog that croaks. I got him because I had perfect attendence last month (I think.) I don't remember.

And I wish, re: teeshirt. Business casual does not allow for flogging teeshirts.

I got mine just because I had 7 years of knowledge in my field and they were really really desperate to get someone in the job (I think).

What were you going to email me about the other day?

[vg-ford.livejournal.com]

That. :p Check your work email.

I'll have to see. I'm thinking the pay cut (because I'll lose my 8% shift differental) is something we can work around just to be together.

But I'm going to keep looking as well. And start writing more. I need to remember that I'm a writer, dammit - not someone who just "wants to write."

It's hard, sometimes. But I will do it.

I think Roselin used to do that, if you what to ask her about it.

Ooh, I'd forgotten that. Thanks!
