What are you doing in Singapore? I thought you were in France!

Singapore, France. It's all the same.

They have breath mints at the Singapore Airport customs stations. We didn't spend enough time there to note the swankiness.

Are you staying in Singapore or was it just a layover?

Shred any article of mail that has your name and address (anything junk mail flyers - anything).

Even if there's only one small piece of brocolli left - don't throw it out instead save it in one of the 10,000 empty margarine containers in the fridge.

If you have a perfectly great old deep bathtub have it refinished. And add that gritty sand stuff to the bottom of it so your behind gets a rash trying to take a bath.

Don't use the real butter to make mac & cheese. Cause then there's not enough to make cookies. And if you buy more then there will be some left over, and then what are you going to do with that?

It's way to complicated for me to live here :rolleyes:

Our mothers must be related.

being and coming across as proactive and positive can really seal the deal.

fingers crossed for ya

The cool thing is, I am already meeting up with two more potential co-workers on Monday, as well as bringing a few writing samples. After the next meeting (since there was so little time between meetings), I will send the thank you card.

They've already checked out some of my other 'work' and I think that they dig that it's more on the creative side. They're kind of looking for someone who can 'do it all' or at least everything they need help with - which I can totally do.

I'm just so stoked. I figured the job would be good, etc, but it was going down there that sold me on it. I drank the Kool-Aid, as it were. The job is a corporate one, so it's not going to be all fun and games, but Marketing has a lot of 'wiggle room' as it were, and they're looking to freshen things up. Which I found funny since they're a linen/sanitary products supply company. Plus, I appreciate that they know the difference between marketing and sales - most companies out here don't seem to have a grasp on that.

Attention Snowflake:

Go to BiRite Creamery near Delores Park and taste the Lavender Honey ice cream as well as the Salted Caramel ice cream and report back what other scrumptious flavors they have.

It's a dangerous mission, but please have pity on us poor Southern Californians.

What do you guys think about me sending a reply back to the company that rejected me?
