The school year starts and I don't particularly feel like thinking about much. I am teaching three classes, one less than I would with the job I didn't get. But I'm being paid about 1/6th, and get no benefits. Goodbye academia.
But, because I don't feel like whining, and I don't feel like clogging the CE board with something that may already be there, but...

My suggestion? Marry a Canadian 
marvel:
I know several Canadian women 
Thank you all for the good thoughts and wishes. I haven't heard yet about anything, so I'm just keeping my toes crossed. They still haven't decided if they're going to interview a whole bunch of people (and the later in the summer they wait, the fewer qualified people are still available. Most academic hires are done by April), or if they're just going to appoint...

WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No No No I think it's cupcake time!
otoki:
Meh, it's not the worst injury I've ever had. It definitely hurts less than a healing tattoo.
I know it's just monday, but can this week be over now?
On Friday, my jeep decided it didn't like having antifreeze in it anymore, so it spilled it all out, via the waterpump. As I am about as mechanically inclined as a stuffed llama, this meant a trip to the shop. And, as it is under a pretty major warranty, this meant a trip...

I submit them to the SG blog via Nicole. Though I imagine if you still submit stuff the old way it can be queued as it was before.

Took my mother out to a very late Mother's Day lunch. She's retired, and I'm on Summer Break, and this is the first day when our schedules meshed close enough for lunch. During lunch, she told me that she had seen an ad from the local Red Cross that they were looking for volunteers to go down to where the tornadoes hit, and she...

Have you thought of water work outs?
brightredscream:
Think. Think. Think.
After a short convo with Trekka today, I had an odd thought: There don't seem to be any, or at least many, non-religious youth service groups. It sometimes seems like half my incoming freshman students come in talking about their church group service trip, usually to Mexico, where they built houses or schools or something (and, according to their papers and discussions, encountered their first...

I can see that. I went through cutting out the stress and trying to relax as much as possible. Avoiding the stress factors helps a lot! But then there are those that want to keep bringing it back into my life, which sucks.
I also told her I want to work on my self esteem issues, my issues of flash judging people and thinking that basically everyone I come across is an idiot, as well as trust issues and a shitload of other stuff.

I need a backrub and a sandwich! If only they had backrub and sandwich shops right!?
Ok. Seems I have less to do than I thought. So, I bought a new moleskine, filled my pen, and today I start a new book. So, wish me luck

I am pretty sure God hates the Cubs more than the Sox. Hope you had a nice Rapture day...

You have to have a college degree for the Peace Corps. Otherwise, I would have done it ages ago. :-/ I shall figure something out.
YAY VAGIMA!

My life. Seriously.
I swear though, something REALLY bad is going to happen soon. The pendulum has to swing back at some point right?

Nope. That is my job.
Thinkin' some thoughts.
I am incredibly scared at the thought of meeting people I've talked to online.
I think I'm getting arthritis in my fingers.
My head hurts.
I somehow managed to tear the fitted sheet on my bed. I did not know this until last night. So, I bought new sheets today. They were majorly on-sale.
