CHICAGO: If Hepatitis C Were Attacking Your Face Instead of Your Liver You'd Be Doing Something About It

Note: I don't hate tea in the least. In fact, I quite like it, as the drawer full of various kinds of bagged, loose, herbal, and caffeinated tea in our kitchen and the ownership of my very own proper tea pot demonstrates. I just vastly prefer coffee. Coffee is a magical drink.

OTM.

This is indeed true.

But boy, bad coffee is *really* bad. Bad tea is just kinda flat or tinny tasting, but bad coffee... woo. Ashtrays and assholes.

No, I miss coffee terribly. I *loved* the mental/creative stimulation it provided.

My antipathy for Diet Coke is mostly the empty metallic taste. Regular Coke is too syrupy. But I can't drink either, so the point is moot.

I take back "hideously provincial," ok?

Also, I prefer the taste of really good coffee to tea. Which is why I drink ROASTAROMA tea every morning.

Due to some health issues, I went without caffeine for two years straight. I lost a lot of weight that way. Also, I developed a taste for Sprite.

I think Chris "Cuddles" Piuma would have something to say here.

I'm also slightly embarassed re-reading my drunk post upthread.

Just as well. The Free Terrible Work Coffee is terrible. I'll just wait and get a good cup on the way to class.

amanda otm about tea being all comforting and cozy.

How should I address this in my cover letter? I have really no experience in Photoshop, GoLive or InDesign, but I have many other skills and such that qualify me for this job.

"Knowledge and experience in website design and maintenance, and graphic design, and database management, as well as Adobe GoLive, InDesign and Photoshop or comparable is strongly recommended."

should i even mention it? say that i'm a quick learner? express a willingness to learn these programs on my own time outside of work?

xpost "or comparable" ... know anything that is comparable? Dreamweaver?

Urgh. I can't decide. I do like Leanne. Also, I am a Miss Priss because I like having my hair washed and all those little extra posh things. Bbut also, maybe I just can't afford my own standards. Also, Nick gets his hair cut at Big Hair. Bbut also, he's a boy with a basic boy haircut. I think I need to sleep on this one.

1. You only get your hair cut two or three times a year.
2. It's better to go to an expensive stylist you trust than end up with a crappy, cheap haircut that you'll have to pay the expensive stylist to fix anyway.
3. You don't want to make L3anne cry.
4. It's not like you get manicures/massages/pedicures/facials so this if your one splurge is getting a good haircut from someone that you like and trust, NO BIGGIE.
5. A good hair cut is the foundation for a polished and professional look.
