My Life In Letters

I've been gone. Now I'm back. Here's what I've been obsessing about lately:

IAAP -- The International Association of Administrative Professionals, an organization to which I belong. Any admin support staff out there? Check 'em out at http://www.iaap-hq.org/.

BAC -- the Bangor Area Chapter of IAAP, of which I am a founding member and I'm on the Program Committee. We have meetings one evening a month.

BCT -- no relation whatsoever to IAAP, this is Bangor Community Theater, of which I am a member of the Board of Directors, and which also meets once a month, sometimes on the same night as BAC(!). We did "Labors of Love" last year (see Facebook pix of Jenn and me as dancing girls) and now we're cooking up Neil Simon's "Rumors" for October (stay tuned!).

CAP -- (back to IAAP, now) this stands for Certified Administrative Professional, but after this weekend, I am more likely to be declared a member of the Civil Air Patrol. I crammed all week, but really did not study properly, and spent two days in Portland taking four grueling exams. I sort of think maybe I did OK on one of them....possibly. I find out in June how many I need to retake in November.

GNED -- more IAAP! I'll be tavelling to the Greater New England Division Conference in Sturbridge, MA May 15-17. Much to Alan's joy.

APM -- someone who says he is "going to see Star Trek next weekend, dammit".

I think I'll go see if he'd like to kick my butt at Scrabble...
