I applied for a couple different jobs outside of AIG. We'll see how it goes. I am qualified. Just wondering what sort of relief is ever going to be coming for me. The more you work, the more work you get. I have been promised the "cavalry is coming" for years upon years and they've yet to arrive. 

Interestingly, 6 years ago today I went on my FIRST interview since I graduated from College... breaking out of State Farm. 

Could I look any more awkward? 

A full and glorious day of NOTHING. I did nothing. And watched a show about NOTHING. (Yes, yes yes... I am watching Seinfeld again... it's still good) 

Kevin sat on my lap for 12 hours straight. His best case scenario. 

Also no recollection of this workout. LOL. Judging by the statistics, it was a bit harder than the one on Sunday.

As I sit here typing this in, on Tuesday, I have no independent recollection of this workout. AT. ALL. A look at the stats of 10 "splat" points and 378 calories leads me to believe it was about average. Will check Reddit... maybe that will jog my memory.

Checking Reddit did not, in fact, jog my memory

Took my mom to see Downton Abbey -- A New Era and out to dinner at the Shake Shack. Allow me to opine that the Shake Shack is a rip off. Burgers that were nothing special. Buns, nothing special. Fries, nothing special. That being said, I did not have a shake, so perhaps that's the attraction. Overpriced and mediocre. It had a cute modern building though, and that's literally what lured me in. I am a sucker for the right aesthetics. 

#lastnight

Dara and I went into the office, walked to lunch in the rain, and then went out to dinner with Agnes and Chrissy. My hair looked like a poodle got wet and then was allowed to air dry. Oy. This was the work outfit. Nothing shocking. 2015 Express pants + Trina Turk top and a sweater for the office. Comfortable flats. Not exactly a fashion statement, other than to say... "I'm tired, my feet hurt, but I still fit into old pants".

What's it going to take for the US to enact reasonable gun reform? I mean we've already paid with the lives of thousands of people, children included. This. Is. Not. Normal.
