new shoes, and job hunting

[aslant]

new shoes i bought yesterday. so comfortable! they are the first pair of high heels i have been able to wear since the surgery last summer. the scar is not pretty to me -- the line is not tight and too blurred, and i am still kind of self-conscious about it. i've definitely caught some stares in public. the hardware is not painful, but i hate how it deforms the line of my already-lumpy, short ankles.


in other news, it turns out that a job i was going to apply for today is not on a portland campus, but rather in klamath falls, a six hour drive south of here. boo hiss.

i haven't heard of rosehip oil for scars -- it sounds prettier than onion extract, that's for sure! i'll look into it.

i'm glad i checked ahead of time about the location. my brother attends this school (oregon institute of technology) at their local campus, so i had just assumed they had a larger presence here in town. sadly, no! and too bad, it was a cool job -- working with high school kids to get them enrolled in college classes early, which increases the rates of college completion, especially for underprivileged populations.
