more on self-perception

Also?  Took a bunch of pictures of myself tonight, and in most of them I feel like I look like someone else.  I'm not sure who, but not me.  I may show them to some of you who know me at some point and see what you think.

Happily, though, when I look at these pictures I do not immediately think Oh my god, will you look at the size of those pores, which is what I always think when I look in the mirror.  So, yay?

guh, rar.

So we've had some issues, here in college lately, concerning student employees.  The committee (of which, remember, I am president) submitted a report to Governing Body this week, but we didn't get it there on time, so the Master suggested deferring it to the next Executive Committee meeting (which is in two weeks).  Meantime, it landed on the Bursar's desk, and since she and the Assistant Bursar are the ones in charge of all the student employees, they took it as a personal attack (which it wasn't), and Son of a Preacher Man got cornered this afternoon and had to talk to them about it for an hour.  He and I talked about it for another hour or so this evening, and GAH, I am so frustrated and upset with this whole thing that I cried about it.  (I do cry -- but usually not about professional-type things.)  Rar, rar.
