A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

Because I do... My temp assignment has been going pretty well. It's obviously not brain surgery, but it keeps me occupied. There's this guy at the office that I've developed the BIGGEST crush on. He's a Senior Director of something or other and is in his 30s. Way, way, way too cute (and did I mention he's single?). Anybody ever had a crush on a coworker/ teacher/ other inappropriate person? (sadly, this isn't te first time I've experienced this, because in high school I had a crush on my 12th... Sign in to see full entry.

So yesterday was my birthday. I'm young compared to most of the rest of you. Although I keep getting older, year after year, I somehow don't feel as though I'm getting older--which is maybe a good thing.

Well, after surviving that last job interview (but just barely), I'm back to temping and window-shopping at anthropologie.com. I seriously have to get my spending under control. I just got my utilities bill, and its a lot higher than I thought it would be, due to adjustments made, however that works. Let me just put it this way: my bill this month covers the cost of this one anthro sweater I've been eyeing. Sigh.

It was like the guy didn't know the difference between what was appropriate and inappropriate to ask in an interview. Here's the gist of what happened: I was interviewed by the two senior agents there. We made small talk for about ten minutes, during which I found out that one of the agents lived in my neighborhood--in fact, had lived in the neighborood his entire life (by the way, the agency is...
