In the current economic conditions that we live in, the tips and insights these blogs offer are quite insightful.

Keep your appointments. Meaning, don't waste people's time by showing up late to meetings or worse, flaking altogether. What's even worse than flaking is flaking without nary a heads-up. This isn't about appearing to be important by having such a busy calendar that you can't keep meetings; it's a simple matter of respect. 2. Be transparent.

All my life, writing was always my forte. I won Young Authors Awards, aced English classes, got a 5 on the English AP exam, was the copy editor for our high school yearbook, etc. I've had some opportunity to be creative in writing blog posts for work, but otherwise I have pretty much left my writing skills to get out of shape (much like http://www.cleesrealm.com/2008/04/introducing-2-new-outlets-for-whatever.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Christine)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596295.post-6987788682538714269Sat, 05 Apr 2008 01:53:00 +00002008-04-04T18:56:40.235-07:00I'm doing a horrible job updating my blog! Well, maybe I should do something about that. Lots of changes since my last post. First off, I'm now a Mrs! Yes, that means Nickey and Snowball are now officially brothers. The second big change is that we're finally moved into our house after months of laziness and painting and other cosmetic changes.

This was the first time I was in NY when it wasn't blisteringly bone-chillingly cold. Instead, it was HOT and muggy. At first I felt like I was in a sauna, but then I realized it was more of being in a nasty sauna where the heat would open my pores and then all the nastiness of NYC pollution and sewage would block them uphttp://www.cleesrealm.com/2007/07/i-spent-this-past-week-in-ny-for-bunch.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Christine)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596295.post-692539225191094456Tue, 19 Jun 2007 06:42:00 +00002007-06-18T23:42:25.690-07:00A classic video :)http://www.cleesrealm.com/2007/06/classic-video.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Christine)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596295.post-8561595221617473855Sat, 19 May 2007 13:02:00 +00002007-05-19T06:15:14.347-07:00Status of Clee: sitting in some airport cafe enjoying a chocolate muffin, latte, and fizzy water.Airport: Copehagen, DenmarkEn route to: Heathrow (London)The best part?
