I did finish the resume. I used a lot of what's in our new job descriptions to help me out. And I used my boss's resume from before she got this job as an outline.

I sent it off to my friend Jim to edit it, because I'm bleary and bug-eyed. He gave it to his wife, who's the woman who asked for it. She said it was fine.

I'll admit I wasn't thrilled with that. I still want to read it again in the morning. And she agreed.

Why is writing a resume, for me, like undergoing some form of therapy in reverse? I feel horrible throughout the writing process and exhausted when it's done.

I did omit any reference to taxi dancing for the elderly.

A stampede has apparently broken out at the memorial for Nipsey Hussle. Sad.

Doing a search on best medical shows one of our all time favorite shows was named, Northern Exposure.  I think it is a bit of a stretch.

I forgot about that!  I loved that show.

Have you visited Roslyn?  We plan to go in the near future.

I've never been, but I think friends of mind went years ago.

I started Where the Crawdads Sing today. I like the narrator. And the novel's first couple of chapters remind me a lot of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.

I imagine not being thrilled.  I hope you are pleased with it in the morning when you read it with fresh eyes.

Listening to a lot of film music by Arthur Honegger - this stuff is so ahead of its time it's simply breathtaking.  This label called Marco Polo put out a bunch of Honegger film music CDs and I bought them all back in the day and I'm not sure I listened to a single one of them.  This stuff is major.
