Okay, applying for a job via email...

The text of the email is my cover letter? Do I also attached a copy of the cover letter? Or do I not use the text of the email as my cover letter, and essentially write a cover letter to the cover letter?

So, so confused.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've done it both ways, depending on how conservative I was trying to be -- if I attach a cover letter, I just say, "Please find my application attached" or whatever in the body of the email.

I envy people with tax refunds.

How old is your old Mac Book?

It's a Spring 2008 that I got refurbished in the fall of 2008, so it's had four solid years of work. I like it, but even after putting more memory in it, it's beginning to get a bit obsolete. For one thing, I can't put Chrome on it, and Firefox won't update anymore, so I'm going to be at risk for security problems.

I probably could do both the computer and the landscaping, frankly. But I'm looking at all the costs associated with selling the house--repairs, staging, etc., and I probably should just hang onto the laptop for now.

Apparently our hiring process is so fubar they've pissed off the captains, and they brought in a GS-14 or -15 to work on it. But I am not sanguine, as Zoe would say.

Now that I sent off that resume, I am doing my taxes. Do I know how to party on my day off or what?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We should hear about the house soon. Twitch. Twitch twitch.
