Merry Christmas, yo.

I'm lucky to be able to fly to Florida, afford to give and receive gifts, have a job that while aggravating gives me PTO. My mom can be a lot but she loves and cares for me.

my husband isn’t perfect but he’s pretty great. Overall it was a good day.

My old LJ entries should be moved over soon. I hope.

In the meantime... here I am.

Job searching sucks, but I do have more to do (watch webinars, they'll solve all my problems, apparently!) and I did get a promising phone call today from a recruiter. The job is short-term for now, but with the possibility to convert, it's in Schaumburg, would pay well, and my resume is a great fit. and the agency (Planet Interactive) has good insurance options for their contractors.

So... maybe it will work out and maybe not and it's not a dream job, to be sure (at least in that it's contract to start) but... it's nice to have a good lead, finally. It's nice to have someone say my resume is impressive. A little bit of an ego boost at least.

Tomorrow afternoon I'm gonna travel to rural Indiana to hang out with my mom for a couple of days. That should be nice, if a little dull.

Friday night we have a thing to go to, meet some new people... and Sunday is Easter so we'll go see the fam. Fun, fun.

I didn't think it was a huge deal when Livejournal was purchased by a Russian company. I wasn't even sure it was too important that the servers got moved.

But the new TOS is ... sketchy as hell and definitely anti-First Amendment and anti-lgbt. (see cleolinda post here for more details: https://cleolinda.tumblr.com/post/159268444899/dreamwidth) It makes me sad to leave LJ, I've been here since 2003, since you needed an invite code. I'm not going to delete everything right away, but I plan to start posting new content at Dreamwidth, and I'm migrating everything over to that journal so my 14 years of stuff is backed up.

You can find me at misslynn.dreamwidth.org. I hope those of you who are still reading will join me.

if you've ever been in a newsroom, this will amuse you greatly. even if you haven't, it's still pretty freakin' funny.
joe sent this on at work.

( the myth of a neat newsroom - exposed! )

Current Mood: amused

seems like it bears repeating for the couple of new people who have added me lately but not introduced themselves. plus it fell off the main part of my public journal:

i generally don't add people who haven't introduced themselves and explained why they think we oughta be friends. i want to know and care about the people on my friendslist. and, be it vain or no, i want them to know and care about me.

so: please comment! introducing yourself is strongly encouraged!

( a story, in pictures, of my proposal )

eta: i've been grinning all day. it's so surreal and wonderful all at the same time. :) anymore, i don't get *too* sad leaving because i know we're not really going to be apart that long... but today, man, i did not want to let him go. ever. it was probably the best weekend of my entire life thus far :)

Current Mood: giggly

subtitled: eeeeeeee! (a shriek of glee)

so um. big news people. was NOT expecting this... but...

i'm engaged!!!!!!!!!

( the story, cause some of my friends have already seen this )

pictures probably late tomorrow night.

Current Mood: giddy
Current Location: valparaiso, in
