Hello, gals!
1. I had my first over-the-phone interview today! As my job search begins, I'm spending a lot of time rehearsing my responses to potential interview questions.. in my car. Do you know what my favorite potential question is? "So, Caitie.. Although all your references say you have none, what would you say are your weaknesses?" ;) I honestly love this question because one of the best experiences of my life has been reflecting on the things at which I el suck-o! Seriously! See, I remember being younger and in awe of people who could say, "Oh, I am terrible at ____!" They were confident knowing that even if they weren't perfect, they were still awesome! And now -- I'm one of those girls! Bring on the weakness question!
2.My brother Tommy, who was supposed to go to the Oprah show with me, took a week-long job in Florida and can't go. So.. (are you hoping I'm holding a raffle to see who goes with me?), I'm taking my cousin, Maura. But if SHE can't go, you're totally next in line! :)
3. One of my favorite nanny families called today and asked if I wanted to come see Chloe, their 8 year-old play in a championship basketball game tonight. It was so much fun to surprise the kids and connect with Machelle, their wonderful momma who once washed the dye out of my hair in her kitchen sink. Yeah, that story is worth reading.
4. I've been babysitting overnight the past week and it's done a number on my sleep schedule. I get there at 11pm, study some more and the kids get up at.. I can't say it.. No, it's too early.. It's just too.. (sigh).. 5am!!! Ugh! It's horrible! I am NOT a morning person, but for me, 5am is middle of the night. One of the kids is deaf and I must say, I feel worse for her.. Having to deal with my sign language that is equally grumpy and incorrect, can't be fun.
5. I've been getting some great CD reviews lately! Have you had a listen yet? You can order at www.caitierose.com. Any suggestions for covers that I could record?
6. Can I just say? (You answer: yes, of course.) I am the best bachelorette party planner ever! As bridesmaid/maid of honor for my two best friends who will be getting married within a month of each other, I am planning two incredible bachelorette parties! Many surprises, wild activities, lots of fun.. And no penis necklaces or strippers! I can't wait to share the pictures!
7. I'm tired (see No. 4). Can I think of a number 7 later? Or can I just send you to my favorite blog ever.. My mom.
Go to Jen's Conversion Diary -- she's awesome blossom! And speaking of:
