DYK the thing that annoys me about that, though, is that I have to record a whole 5-hr block or something, because you never know exactly when what you want
DYK the attorney who interviewed me actually went to my school and was on the Negotiations board too. (she and her partner actually won nationals in the negotiation competition a few years ago).
DYK so it was totally laid back. I'll be getting a ton of hands on experience and get to go to court with her. She also said that she'd let me speak in court for her once I get my 3rd year practice certificate. Which makes me pretty nervous just thinking about it, but I'd rather get over that nervousness now rather than when I'm on my own.
DYK it's 9:45 here, and I may be alone...I haven't caught up enough to find out yet?
DYK DD is at her last day of VBS?
DYK DS had to stay home today...he got his shots yesterday, and woke up today with a fever of 101?
DYK poor guy...he always seems to have a fever reaction after shots?
DYK so he's now playing Leap Pad, and hopefully I can get the stuff done that I had planned to do while they were gone?
DYK I think the universe saved me from myself this morning? I wanted to bake something from the new cookbook I got the other day, but I only have one stick of unsalted butter, and our (teeny tiny) grocery store out here only carries salted butter (?!)...
DYK that's one problem with salaried/exempt positions?
DYK my DH used to get paid OT if he worked at least 8 hrs OT/week...
DYK then last year they took that benefit away, AND at the same time instituted "mandatory OT" for a period of time?
DYK so he *had* to work OT, but didn't get paid for it?
DYK now he can work from home for anything over 40, but still doesn't get OT pay? (he just reports the hours, so they see how much he's doing) He doesn't work from home much?

DYK sounds like you will have earned yourself a beer or two after today?
DYK hope the weather clears for the game...and that "idiot" is nowhere near you?
DYK thank you to everyone for wishing me luck!
DYK the interview went great and I got the job!

DYK what?!?!? The opening ceremonies are 4.5 hours long??? Yikes!
DYK Pete and I were planning on watching them, but I doubt we'll be up until 1am just to see the whole thing.
DYK just for the opening ceremonies alone, the budget was 300 million dollars? It better be good!

DYK LOL! Your situtation sounds kind of like ours?
DYK I *love* hanging out with DH's mom and sister (well, and his dad, too)...we meet in Mpls every year for a girls' trip?
DYK but DH hanging out with my family without me??? HA!
