Man: "Excuse me, miss?"
Me: "Yes?"
Man: "Your zipper's down."

It had been at least two hours since I used the bathroom too which also means it was down all through my program orientation. That man sure was a good Samaritan but gee wizz am I awkward.

yikes. how awkward, indeed. at least someone finally said something, though - nothing worse than realizing it yourself once you've gotten home after hours of being out and about!

what are you orienting for anyway?

I am doing a six week intensive publishing program in hopes of getting a job shortly afterwards in the magazine business. it's really fun but really time consuming. alsooo...BRIAN JUST SIGNED A LEASE ON A HOUSE. he's moving to georgetown with two other guys and I'm already bugging him to have a party there even though they're technically not supposed to....so yeah brian is doing really well.

georgetown as in redding, or georgetown as in near DC?? tell him i said HIYA!!! and congrats on the new place, and that i hope he's doing well. or just tell him to email me or something. nursenicole at gmail, ya know.

as for your six-week program thingie, i hope it turns out to be fantastic and gets you all the leet skillz and good connections you need! what kinda mag you want to work for, any idea?

georgetown as in redding, sorry i shouldve clarified. he's a reporter for the Wilton Bulletin. Thank you for the good wishes! Ideally, I would like to work for a travel magazine but hey who doesn't? I really would take any job that takes me as long as it's in New York City and isn't Popular Mechanics or Men's Golf Digest or something of that sort.
