Giving Tuesday Reminder

You only have about 30 minutes left to donate to a cause in the name of a person who would hate it.

Update

The intern I hired purely because she bothered the crap out of me until I gave her the interview? She was a rockstar.  She was just hired full time.

It’s really hard to work in a small office where you disagree politically with 95% of the people you work with.

I just locked myself in the bathroom to pee and yelled at my 2-year-old through the door that “you don’t get to tell ladies what they can do with their bodies, mommy has to pee” and ugh. I’m tired

Hi.

I hired two interns this week.

One of them I hired purely because she bothered the shit out of me until I gave her an interview.

Job Hunt Update: Finale

Oh Hay!

I got a job!

I turned down an offer, turned down an increased offer, than negotiated for an acceptable salary at 8k above the original  offer because...

I have an employee, my name on the door, and a whole department to run.

Also, a window.

Why Do So Many Men Whisper 'Hey' After Fucking You?

If you are a person who has sex with men, you’ve likely encountered this very real phenomenon: After fucking, while you’re still a tangle of sweaty limbs and heaving torsos, your partner—probably still inside you—looks deeply into your eyes and whispers a husky and sensitive “hey.”

OH MY GOD IT’S A UNIVERSAL PHENOMENON

[someauthorgirl]

NEARLY ALWAYS.

[brostateexam]

this… is a thing?

[tamalehousenumber4-deactivated2]

SO REAL. 

[fatmanatee]

Today

Within minutes I received not one, but two, “Thanksbutnothanks” emails from companies. I was excited about both and hoped that one of them would work out, considering I had interviewed twice for each. 

They both told me the decision came down to me and another candidate, which manages to be both reassuring and heartbreaking.

Since I’m sans tiny human this weekend I’ve spent all day trying to write.

It’s not going well.
