Just completed, and sent, the CV requested by my former boss. Hopefully it won't require too many changes.

Oh yeah!!

Happiness is receiving an honorarium for giving a talk at a conference. Sadness is learning that your institution's rules require you to give it to them as reimbursement for travel expenses. Easy come, easy go.

That's not out of the ordinary.

No it really isn't - in my universe if your company pays to send you they get the $$. If you want to keep it, you pay your own way.

Yeah, that's what I figured. It covers the hotel bill for the week. Sucks, though. The talk was in addition to a research presentation, for which I was already at the conference. I did lots of other stuff related to my job as well, including talking to people to get help on various collaborators' projects. So, my institution gets the entire honorarium for a 20 min presentation, given on a trip where I conducted work-related business. The department agreed to covering my expenses for said conference, so I was going to be there anyway. It's not like I traveled to the conference, gave the talk, and partied for the week.

Of course, I did talk to people about other jobs, so I guess it all comes out in the wash.

Update: heard back from former boss. He's going to look through everything and get back to me. He said his response time might be a bit slow because his grandkids are in town for the summer. Meanwhile, I'll keep doing my thing. And praying.

Good old Facebook, which told me that my friend Paula likes Sony headphones that are available from Amazon.

Um, FB, Paula is DEAF. She is the best adapted person I have ever met (reads lips, speaks perfect English, etc.) but headphones are wasted on her.

Just to play devil's advocate, my mom taught deaf kids for many years. They loved feeling the vibrations from speakers that were put down facing the floor. Danced all over the place. Maybe headphones are like that?

Thanks. We're hoping. With a 4 year old and a 2 1/2 month old, it won't be easy.

Thanks everyone. An update of Donna. The ct scan shows the inner and outer ankle is broken. I wish I could be there to help her. We have Max's graduation Monday. Then we are going to the mountain house for a Shelton family reunion. Dana can't go. Her dog is a sweet dog from Hell. No one else can deal with him. We can't have him here because he inside about all the time and has been know to "mark". I hate it. Maybe I can figure way to go later.

I have jury duty July 8th. I would love to be dismissed. Any suggestions on what tee shirt I should try to bye? LG, do you have any left over from court?
