Dear hiring manager for that full-time tech editor job at the Big Software Company that I applied for IN NOVEMBER;

I see that the job is still open. (Or at least still listed on the career site.) I am EXACTLY the person you are looking for. Really. LOOK AT MY RESUME AND CALL ME IN FOR AN INTERVIEW.

Sincerely,

Cupcake Goth

Last night when going to bed, the PMS Goblins visited and I had an epic crying meltdown for no reason. I knew it was for no reason, and even said so (in between sobs). But apparently I needed to cry. So, no surprise, I am now suffering the post-crying hangover. I suspect that I am going to get no writing done today, grrr.

Thank you to everyone who voted in the poll about the striped skirt! Re-make the skirt has the most votes, but then I keep looking at these:



and these:



and start geebling and flailing a lot.

I hope all of you folks out there in LJ land are having a good day.

Feeling sick. PMS as well. Cranky pants over here. The pictures of shoes helped. Hope you feel better soon.

Sell more, buy less. There will be other pretty things available after you have a new job, and you need to clear out some more storage space anyway.

I second that motion.

[caleidescopeyes.livejournal.com]

Ok. Now I'm convinced that Fluevog is designing shoes JUST to taunt you.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

They are! That must be what is going on! How cute would those pink + pink Sweet Pea shoes look with b&w stripy tights and a black & pink skirt? Gaaaaaah. I think they are going to be the next shoes I purchase, even if it means saving up AND holding another wardrobe sale.

[tinkerbell86ca.livejournal.com]

I will totally save my Christmas money, and pocket money just for another one of your wardrobe sales! Eee!

And oh my . . . those shoes are pretty!

[caleidescopeyes.livejournal.com]

The pink Sweet Peas would look *amazing* with black and white stripy tights. I hope they magically (or otherwise) fall onto your doorstep.
Mr. Husband just gave in and bought himself an emerald green, silk brocade waistcoat that he's been coveting for awhile. Shiny things!

You need to make a new LJ icon for times when you feel like this: a picture of those Cranky Pants bloomers you made. Those were cute.

Personally, I like the black and white stripie shoes best.

Sell the skirt. Yes, it's a pretty skirt and the fabric is lovely. But when it's gone, you're not going to stay up nights mourning its loss, and it will be out there in the world making somebody else happy. You have lots of other, differently beautiful things. And you want those shoes. Waaaaant. Shooooooes.

I NEED the black & red version of the bottom ones

[elfstar18.livejournal.com]

If the skirt (re-made and lovely) and the shoes were side-by-side in a shop, and you could only take one, which would you pick?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Well THAT question certainly makes my mind up! The shoooooooes. Because I couldn't make my own version of *those*.

[diello.livejournal.com]

I read your post, and I've come to the conclusion that it was all about you buying these shoes for me :D
Am I right? Am I right?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Ha! Nice try, but no. :)

(Hey, that's EA in your icon, right?)

[diello.livejournal.com]

It sure is! I love her to bits and pieces!

[requieminblack.livejournal.com]

Ha! I totally gave in and ordered the Libby Smith boots last night. I am now officially broke, but SQUEE!!! I must be going crazy because after hemming and hawing over what color to get I ordered the olive/taupe ones.

[fenrirhyde.livejournal.com]

Best wishes with your job hunting! I hope you land the big interview :3

[lylassandra.livejournal.com]

Yes, in fact, it's my birthday and it's going fabulously, thank you. =)

Also: those pink shoes are adorable.

[mskat.livejournal.com]

Must. Get. Pink. Shoes.


when when when do they come out! And those are the line of heels I love. Must. Get.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

They're out now! On the Fluevog site! They're the Mini Sweet Pea, and they're ::gulp:: $289. As I said in a previous comment, I really do think those are the next things I'm saving up for. Because Oh! So cute!

[mskat.livejournal.com]

Oh my! They are out.... I was looking all over the interwebs, but didn't stumble across them properly until you said that. AND they are only $249!

[laceybones.livejournal.com]

Ooooo pretty shoes!!

Hope your feeling better

Justin's having a similar issue with a QA job he'd applied for MONTHS ago. The listing is still open and the guy keeps flaking on calling. *rolls eyes* He's beyond qualified for it and would love to finally get back to work again. He's been out of work now for almost six months. It'll be six on the fifteenth. I too have been constantly drooling over the pink fluevogs. Aaaaah if only we had money trees huh? :)

[nina1984.livejournal.com]

oh my gosh. those pink ones! :D

[ghostworld00.livejournal.com]

I've applied for jobs like that. I don't understand the advantages of leaving a job open for months and interviewing all the time.
