Should I not wear white pants in February?

Special Olympics, eh? Hmm, don't worry Mike, you'll get yours when my Mom comes to town. - chirp chirp (with the little birdy feathers).

Anyway, the topic of today's blog, you guessed it! - white pants in Winter yay or nay?

I got a new light purple sweater yesterday from Ann Taylor that was like 60% off - suhweet! Anyway, I thought to myself, "Self, that sweater would look cute with your white pants that you haven't worn for a long time cause it's winter!" And I decided to go ahead and wear them today. I asked Brian what he thought in many different forms of questions to make sure he wasn't harboring his true feelings, e.g., "Do you like these white pants?" "Should I wear the white pants or jeans?" and "If someone (not me) was wearing white pants, what would you think about that?" But despite my tricky play of words, Brian's answers stayed constant. But, then I thought, I'm not sure that Brian's sense of women's fashion meets my standard. So, I then thought to myself, "Self, why not poll the very fashion-savvy readers of your blog?" So, let me know what you think.

In other news, the Bachelor is down to 3 perspective life partners, and I don't think any of them are particularly wonderful. I like Sara the school teacher, but I don't think she's right for Travis, the Bachelor, who I decided doesn't have a very good sense of humor.

Blogging on my Blog

Mike, you're starting to use my blog to state personal thoughts. Be advised that all comment conversation on the blogsite should revolve around me. ;)

Anyway, back to me, so today I had a phone interview for a position at JVA Consulting - a nonprofit consulting firm that supports other nonprofits. Anyway, I ended up doing the phone interview with little warning. I grabbed a notebook and pen and ran out of my office to find some quiet place to sit. My "office" is actually just a desk in the middle of a room with other offices off of it, and students constantly walking in and asking me where the printer is. Of course the place I chose instead was not quiet. There were undergrads running around, sitting next to me, and yak'n it up while I tried to focus on the interview. Yeah, I'm dumb, but they wanted to have the phone interviews this week, and I couldn't figure out when would be better. Anyway, mistake #1. Of course, being the coffee addict I am, by the time I had the inteview, I'd had plenty of Joe and coupled with the adrenaline in my body, I was shaking seizure-style. I like to think that my voice wasn't shaking, but perhaps that's wishful thinking.

The interview started off, by the interviewer (also named Naomi) asking me if I could commit to a year (it's a full-time paid internship) and if I had any conflicts in March. I said that I could commit and had no conflicts in March, which is sorta true. My stats class actually ends on March 14th and I really want to finish it, but figure worst-case scenario, i'd be willing to drop it. I'm hoping that if I'm offered the position, I'll be able to finagle it, which again might be wishful thinking.

Anyway, enough about that. I'll be mad at myself if I don't get a face to face interview; I should've managed this one better. Aww well.

Ann, I deleted my text messages, so now you should be able to send more. I don't know why they bounced and the last one that said they were bouncing came through.

On another note, I hope Heath Ledger wins the Ocar for Best Actor for Brokeback Mountain, for Mike's sake.

I'll leave it there for now, and open up the blog for ridiculing comments and Mike's personal thoughts :) - Nomes
