I've been spending much of my time sending out résumés and prepping for the major life change I will soon be undergoing, as well as trying to get back up to speed on ComicMix news reporting now that the moot-point Huge Ass Project is done and the Phase II launch is imminent, so I haven't been able to keep up with my blog reading as I'd hoped. I'm now all caught up and plan to do a blogaround as soon as I return from shopping for interview clothes. I'm kind of dreading it, I'm not really a clothes-horse, but I realize that the first impression most potential employers are going to note has nothing to do with my vast admin experience or superior secretarial acumen, but with how I present myself physically. It may not be right or fair but it is what it is. While I think I carry myself well, and there's nothing I can do about fatphobia, I do recognize that my attitude about clothing amounting to "it's neat and comfortable? fine" isn't necessarily appropriate for all types of situations. Did I mention I'm not looking forward to clothes-shopping? And I can't even find an avatar maker that does larger sizes so I can imagine what I might look like in various outfits. Even the more complex ones like the Portrait Illustration Maker (via Gerard) are head-shots only. Very frustrating...
