Dear Nell,

WTH?

Comments

[ophelias_heart]

Amen!

[whiteink]

Ewwie!

I had eaten a hot pepper part way into the show and I really though it was going to try to make a reappearance when I saw that.


She's cheating on my headcannon!!

[ophelias_heart]

I just don't understand how they had Nell go from sort of avoiding anything to do with even talking about dating Eric to all of a sudden kissing him. 1. WAY to fast B. I just don't buy it. I just don't buy them together, I will not drink the kool-aid. And that after a night of no Deeks!?! Really NCIS LA, really?

[whiteink]

Jamie and I think something must have come up for ECO after the episode was written and before it was filmed. Some of the other cast had very Deeks sounding lines so I'm wondering if something came up and they did some rewrites.

[klingonlady]

Yes.. This.

[klingonlady]

I still want to barf.

Still.

JUST GROSS!!!!!!!!!

[whiteink]

Yes. And since i still don't know what to wear on Thur after trying on half my closet I'm choosing to fixate on that preview instead.

[klingonlady]

Now's the time to change your layout!!!!!!! That is the procrastinators RULE! When you have stuff to do LAYOUT CHANGE!

[whiteink]

I changed my writing comm. Like 8 times one night last week.

Ugh. I need sleep. But the bunnies are angry and I'm annoyed at my closet and it's frustration x1000 right now.

[proseac]

GO SHOPPING!!! Nothing says confidence in an interview like a smart new outfit.

Can't comment on the episode, as I didn't watch. Sorry... ;)

[klingonlady]

I can't believe I am still icking over a preview..

Naughty Nell. Just




ARG! I don't think I even want to watch next week except it looks like there are some Densi moments.

[klingonlady]

Oh the episode was missing Deeks..

But the horridness is in the preview for next week.

[klingonlady]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG LOOK AT THIS!!!!!!!!!!

SCREENCAP!!!!!!!!!!!!




I go to look at the promo again and that is the video screencap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ACG!

[whiteink]

I tried that in one store on the way home (that I could afford to shop in) and I look like a little chubby butterball in everything. And the budget is not friendly 2 days before payday for an interview outfit. :(

[whiteink]

My head cannon and the smut bunny are trying to rewrite what I say to keep Nell with Callen.

[proseac]

And the budget is not friendly 2 days before payday for an interview outfit. :(

That's why God made plastic!!!

And I'm sure you're exaggerating about the "little chubby butterball" observation. Wear a v-neck or dress shirt, and a jacket that falls anywhere except the widest part of the hip. Slacks are nice, wide leg is slimming. Or a skirt that falls at the knee or just above.

Keep the top & bottom in similar colours or at least both light or both dark - that will lengthen your look and avoid you looking chopped up in the middle. And of course, NO horizontal stripes - vertical ones are good though.

I used to do image consulting - trust me on this. You'll be great, I have faith!

[whiteink]

I actually participated in the toy drive at work and can be causal all month and as a result can actually wear jeans if I wanted to for the interviewe (says the interview email that I got). Not that I'd actual wear jeans, but I think I'm fussing to much ... and getting super dressy may look like I'm trying to hard? Especially since I'm sure my interviewers will mostly be in jeans?

idk. I'm nervous and psyching myself out.

[whiteink]

I'm still gagging over it this morning. I may take a screencap of it and put a big red X over it for an icon.

[ophelias_heart]

I know, but I missed him. It was not the same!

[ophelias_heart]

I would rather see people try too hard than that one time that a girl walked in in a tube top and a mini skirt!

[ophelias_heart]

Please do that!

[whiteink]

True - but there's a balance between the jeans that I'm allowed to wear and a suit jacket and "stuffy" clothes. I didn't even wear a suit jacket for my first interview here.

[ophelias_heart]

It would be less horrifying if it was Eric kissing Nell, but Nell being the instigator makes me nauseous. I'm trying not to hate on someone's Neric parade, but mostly it is super gross. It's like she's making out with her gay brother.

[whiteink]

Lmao.

In my head cannon he's her gay best friend who helps her shop for all her cute clothes.

[ophelias_heart]

I know, I think trousers and nice sweater/shirt would be a good compromise.

[ophelias_heart]

IKR

[proseac]

Ok, I see why you're feeling unsettled. It would actually be easier if you didn't have the casual option.

In that case, I'd go with slacks and a sweater or nice blouse with a cardigan over top. Kind of "business casual".

I'm sure they'll get a real mixture, but remember: first impressions ARE important, no matter what they say to the contrary. I wouldn't go the jeans route...doing just that little bit extra to present yourself professionally will go a long way to sending a message about how serious you are about this job.

Good luck, sweetie!

[whiteink]

It would be easier w/o that option. We're sorta casual most of the time, and jeans make it more so. So I want to be a step above - but not so far above that it just looks silly.

Plus I've been very quiet about my application (everyone always is with this, it's sort of unspoken that we won't speak about it), so no one outside of the supervisors know - so if I'm too dressy it will lead to questions that I don't want.

[proseac]

Could you maybe change in the bathroom just before the interview?

[whiteink]

I could. I think it'll depend on if I find a cute top and maybe a skirt tonight at the store. I think even just a cute top would be enough for me ... I just need a little something special/extra to what I wear most days (which is a nice shirt and dress pants ... I'm not typically the jeans person.)
