Today was my first day on my own in the lab. It was not bad at all although I was really worried that I would not have computer access at all. The IT department finally created my login id and granted me access. I still haven’t been granted access to certain buildings because my personnel [...]

My first day on the job was rather hectic. A lot of things to remember and I’m trying hard not to feel overwhelmed. I think I will like this job a lot and it will either cross off one career choice off the list or keep that thought alive. That’s all I’m going to say [...]

So sue me. I realized I had more to talk about and I hit the “write post” button. I finally bit the bullet and called an old aunt of mine. It was one of the best moves I’ve made in a long while. We had a long chat and it was our first since the [...]

Okay, this one is for the parents. I finally went to church, okay?! Happy now? lol. For the first time in a very long while, I attended a Catholic Church (St. Joseph). How it happened was totally unplanned, but I leapt at the chance when it presented itself. Mrs. JW has been having health issues [...]

You guys, I think I may have taken the concept of shopping therapy a little too far. lol. Actually, I think I’ve been very restrained. I bought a cute summer dress for the princely sum of $6.41 at Old Navy and spent ~ $32 for 2 pairs of shoes (Mudd and Skechers) at Rack Room [...]

It’s funny how once the ball gets rolling, it doesn’t stop. See, after accepting one job offer, I recently got contacted again for another job interview for a research position. I turned down the invitation to interview for the job and the professor responded that he wasn’t surprised I got snapped up so quickly. Needless [...]

It’s old news that Yahoo bought out Flickr and ditched their in-house Yahoo! Photos to become Yahoo! Flickr. Well, a while back, I installed Gallery2 on my webhost and it’s eating a lot of space on the webserver. Not to mention in the event of me switching webhosts, it’ll be a pain to have to [...]

I’ve resisted the lure of twitter for far too long! Now, I’ve seen the ‘light’ and activated my old Twitter account (http://twitter.com/joullah). I anticipate that I’ll be using it quite frequently because there are several times I’ve wanted to post, but I never had enough to merit a blog post (or so I thought). So [...]

Well, ’tis been a while. I’m officially job-less, but there is hope. I attended an interview this week and I think it went well. I didn’t prepare as maniacally as I did for big fish #1, but I was definitely more laid back this time around. I’ll be happy for better or worse. In [...]

For a week, I experienced an epiphany of sorts. I was happier than I had ever been and I felt freer than I’d ever been. Slowly, the harsher realities of life crept in and I slunk back (some) into the shell I’d once been in. Well, I feel the funk lifting off me today. It [...]
