on november 9

on november 9 i was asked for a recent copy of my resumé. i dug through my files to find the latest version i had was dated february 2008. so i began to review and update... i found myself saying out loud “yeah, but that's not all!” but this list of employment and achievements was already two whopping pages long. long enough that by the second page whomever is reading it inevitably starts to glaze over. at least that’s the effect it has on me!

i guess that's my problem. i never quite fit onto a single page, not even two pages. does anyone? there's just more to it.
thank heavens.

the things that don't fit seem to be the things, in my mind at least, that a potential client or employer would want to know the most! like... i cant say “no”. i work at all hours and pull out all the stops to get it done if i say i can, even when i'm throwing up with food poisoning (more on that later)... i love, love, love that my job allows me so much creativity... i proof my work for smart punctuation (and if you know what that means, you're just as crazy as i am!)... the list goes on.

i guess my point is, that there should be some other thing you can submit to potential clients &  employers besides a resumé... hmmm, like a blog!

i can’t fit onto a single sheet, nor could all the fabulous women i know out there.
but leave it to me to turn it into a photo opportunity.

ok, are you ready for some tmi?
just after snapping this image i rushed to the bathroom and threw up.
hey! i warned you!
i threw up every 30 minutes for the next nine hours. impressive, no?
so, once again, i'm ot really a slacker. i meant to post something, but things got a little hairy.

i started feeling queazy during dinner out at taco del mar (i hope i don’t get sued for defamation of character by posting this, but it's true!) and as the night progressed, so did the rumbling in my tummy. so i’ve spent the last two days either barfing or feeling like i was going to. and in between barfing, i worked. seriously, i need to get a grip and let it go sometimes, i swear.

today, however, i've joined the land of the living and am feeling much, much better.

and now i have a ton of work to tackle, because mom’s don’t get sick days, not really.

here's tuesday’s photo opportunity... on thursday.

**oh, and i've got a shoot this friday. so check back for a sneak peek on saturday or sunday!
