SQUEE!!!!

Can I be all excited for just one tiny little moment?

I got to meet Elizabeth Warren! And we talked! For like three whole minutes! And I have a picture of it!

Andplusalso, during my mad networking session at the event, I met a couple of women, and invited them out to grab a drink afterwards. They're both HUGE women's rights activists, and during our conversation, one of them asked me (because I'd been harping on the WOW's repro rights lately) if I would be interested in an analyst position with a certain org - a position that I've applied for! She told me she's good friends with the woman who's in charge of hiring for the position, and she'd be happy to email her tomorrow and recommend me.

    Yay!   I am not usually very good with fashion, but I am really been trying to get better at it.  So,  I'm glad my fashion tips helped someone!  Good luck with these next steps!
