I've written a resume, and have it saved to a disk, and applied to three places on craigslist, including one job as a receptionist at Planned Parenthood. That would totally rock, but I probably won't even get a call back, as I don't speak Spanish, and it was listed as required. I figured it was worth a shot, y'know?

*squee*

Tomorrow I think I'll start hitting individual hospitals' websites. OHSU is an obvious choice. Is Legacy Immanuel that one in NE? Any other places y'all can think of?

Dinner tonight: Marinated tofu and roasted brussels sprouts, both from Vegan with a Vengeance. Mm, mm.

I made those same brussels sprouts last night! Sooo good.

Do you want me to ask Kara (my bossish person who is a nurse) for suggestions of places to apply? You hit all the ones I can think of.

That would be lovely!

Oh, and I finally bought a Diva Cup today! I'm almost looking forward to my next period so I can try it out. *lol*

OMG. I will be so glad to stop using tampons. Ugggh I hate them.

Yay! It takes a few tries to get the suction just right, so don't be discouraged (and maybe have some backup pads). :)

Yeah, I tried it out twice (New Toy Syndrome!), just putting it in and taking it out. I got it in fine the first time but not the second time, and it tends to pinch when I take it out! I know I'll get the hang of it soon enough though, I used Insteads for a decade until I got my IUD.

For me it was more a matter of recognizing how it feels at the point between full and too full. I've never used Insteads, so maybe they're the same way?

Insteads were just tricky to get in and out without making a mess, especially in public restrooms. And if it got too full, it just leaked. I usually had a good idea of when to change it, though, because the second day of my period is my heavy day...or it used to be. I don't think my periods are any heavier, but they last forever, or it feels like it.
