This is for those of you whom we love but because of our personality "quirks" we seldom stay in touch with, and even for those of you whom might rather we didn't stay in quite so frequent touch. -S&M
As most of you will (hopefully) recognize, Mark and I were Wesley and Buttercup from The Princess Bride for Halloween this year. We got all decked out in our costumes and headed to our favorite bar, Orton's, to celebrate Halloween with our trivia friends. Everyone knew who we were. We had quotes shouted at us as we walked down the street and as we sat in the bar drinking.
We think the costume contest was rigged because Jeff, who runs karaoke every week, picked us to win the contest even though other people got louder applause. But since we looked so good, we couldn't really complain.
I started my new job at Talk PR, a marketing and PR company here in Wilmington, on October 2. So far I love it. I've been writing media alerts, press releases, new hires; I helped plan and successfully execut an Open House event for Wilmington Orthopaedic Group to show off their new offices; budgetting and planning for '07; researching new clients and probably some non-glamorous things too. But it is fun and it keeps me busy and writing. And it is not my old job. I actually feel respected and appreciated at Talk PR. I am also going to get to help in the creative department with some design work when I'm needed! It's so nice to be able to do a lot of things I enjoy doing in such a creative (and gorgeous) atmosphere. I should have business cards and be added to the
website by year's end.
