I am sorry to be setting such a horrible example for telecommuters everywhere, but today during an annoying conference call I bought a bag on Etsy (read nothing into the fact that it’s described as a diaper bag; I just liked it). That reminded me that I needed to get the next book club book. Which eventually led me to remember that I wanted some shoes.
(While on Zappos I noticed their list of most popular searches–right under the search box. The first item is “shoes.” Srsly?)
I’m just sad that I’m being slowly, inexorably pushed out of a job I once really liked. And when the going gets sad, the sad go shopping, I guess.

Lessons of the week:
1. When one door closes, another one just might fly open.
2. Keep yer dang resume up to date! Lest you spend more time combing through the nethers of old CDs trying to find one from 2003 than you do just rewriting the thing from scratch.
Seriously, this is embarrassing, I have not needed a resume for more than a decade. I’ve been at this same job for over 7 years and I got this one and the one before that by following someone from a previous job.
You guessed it! I’ve decided to go to medical school.
No. Not really. But there may be some changes afoot. Good ones. Can’t write more now, fingers crossed.
