What fantastic news - congratulations on the impending job offer! And good for you for being discerning about new purchases, too. It is sometimes disappointing to come home empty-handed, but in the end when you find the RIGHT things, it will all be worth it!

Hurray! This is great news! Please share your purchases (when you finally make some! ) and some outfit ideas!

Great news! Congratulations.

Congrats! What an excellent excuse for shopping!

My first job after college was actually tech writing, BTW.

Congratulations and have fun shopping!

Woohoo!!! And llooking forward to the vicarious shopping ....!

MuseumGal, I am SO happy to hear this news! I hope everything moves along nicely in the hiring process for you. And hooray for the necessary shopping! Have fun with it.

Congrats, Museumgal! A job is certainly a reason to celebrate. Sometimes working in something related is enough for the future prospects and I hear you about the paycheck -- I would probably leave my current job but the resume and wallet would hurt too much with the museum job market being what it is currently.

I hope you find some great things to wear to work.

Congratulations on the new job! I'm sure you'll knock 'em dead. Have fun shopping, and be sure to post pictures of your new duds.

Congratulations! So happy for you!

Great news - congratulations!
