Belly Dancing on Tuesday
Posted by Lori Dorn on February 24th, 2008Yay! I’m starting belly dancing classes on Tuesday with Fat Chance Belly Dance here in San Francisco. It’s something that I’ve always wanted to do, but was always either too shy or too self-conscious to actually do it. I’m not sure what changed, but I’m super excited to finally embark on this [...]
A Career in Human Resources
Posted by Lori Dorn on February 20th, 2008An instructive video from collegrad.com, a job site for entry level positions, geared towards introducing recent college grads to different careers.

Green Cay Wetlands
Posted by Lori Dorn on February 7th, 2008I was on vacation in lovely Boynton Beach, Florida visiting my Daddy. It was very relaxing and I made friends with a bird or two.
This photo is from the Green Cay Wetlands which is a gorgeous set of wetlands designed to assist in the water filtration process for Palm Beach County.
I wish I could [...]
