enthusiastick(Its possible this post belongs under the overall heading of my infrequent interactive interrogatives, but whatever. Happy St. Valentine's Day, everyone.)
Barring serious weather trouble, my drive out to Chicago begins in less than a week. I will be setting out on Thursday (February 17), arriving probably in the evening on Friday (February 18), and am planning to stay two weeks (through March 4). And for all that this trip has been in the works for ages, and for all the e-mails I have been frantically sending and job sites I have resumed searching and posting to with full intensity... thus far my prospects for even interviewing anywhere seem kinda grim, frankly. But I'm holding out hope until at least the second week of my visit. Despair just isn't useful at this stage.
Anyway, I thought I'd mention to all of you that I'm pretty much desperate for a Chicago-area job at this point. I want to come home permanently so badly I can taste it. I'll take a mindless, thankless job at a meager wage (within reason... barely) if it allows me to accomplish this goal. So does anyone out there in LJ-land have a job for me? Or know anyone that might?

Date: 2005-02-15 09:43 am (UTC)What I really want to "do with my life" at this point is, I think, teach high school. But I imagine ACE can't help me with that.
Also, as a sidenote: thank you so, so much Loopy. Everytime I have wailed and whinged for help on this LJ you've been among the first to respond with genuine offers of assistance. I just want to make sure you know how much I appreciate that.

Other than that....have you thought of applying at NU?
