No More Classes

in: me

I taught my last 2 classes today. I’m spending a bunch of time now documenting things and finishing projects. I’ve thrown out a surprising amount of paper I was keeping in my files - just stuff for my personal use, the next person who has my job is going to inherit a few legacy files about library instruction where I work. I’m sure the partially full file drawer will fill them with joy :)
My wedding invitations went out earlier this week, and I think my wedding web site is almost done, so that’s another project I’m wrapping up. I’ve been checking for jobs out west where I’m moving, and I haven’t seen anything that I could apply for. In some ways, I don’t mind very much because I don’t think it would be all that bad to have a slight break from libraries. I’ll have plenty to keep myself occupied for a little bit, settling into my new condo and trying to defug the former owner’s decorating. I wonder if I should go back to school to get more training if I can’t easily find a job after I move.

    We got our invitation yesterday! Very exciting. Then we went to your parents’ house for seder. Very fulfilling.

    Somebody out there has got to snap you up.

    Yay! I’m glad people are getting the wedding invitations :)

    I’m sure I’ll get some sort of job eventually.

    I’m sure you will too, tangognat.
    Thanks again for the “Forest” contribution. I’m working all day to get April up tomorrow morning.

    you don’t need more training! maybe join the local prof org or whatever, and take a few cont ed classes if you must just to do networking. but geez, your experience really ought to count for something. maybe you should teach the classes instead.

    I’d maybe need more training if I had a tough time getting a job as a librarian and needed to get myself another career :)
