(bun) lady of leisure

so today is my two-week anniversary of being Laid Off. lets just say that i have a new empathy for people who drink to numb the pain. thankfully, the industry network of peeps that i had no clue that i had kicked into gear and there have been plenty flashes of hope since then. and then today. i went to a job fair with a fellow Unemployed and i couldn't believe that i actually put on heels for that complete Waste of Time. we first bee-lined for the bar (turned out, not even any free drinks!), we got the 'You look like confident young women' pitch from what turned out to a Mary Kay lady. no offense, MKL, but saying you're in the 'healthcare' field, only to bust out your card (AFTER we both gave her resumes printed on the good stuff) with MK on it, makes me think you're a shady Liar and i hope you never call me. unless free starbucks is involved.

also, with V-Day being this weekend, i wanted to share with everyone one of the best v-day gifts i've ever received:

my love's meat heart. :) as an avid carnivore, this was just the sweetest thing i'd ever seen. we lived in the Heights at the time and had the most romantical dinner feasting on the meat heart. it was divine. who knows what i'm in for this year (will post my v-day gift to Bee later).
