i watch too much tv

i do. i watch tons. only 5 more weeks of that, though. then the giant monstrosity that sits in our living room will be gone forever. whew.

i suppose its ok to go ahead and post about the job i got since i start monday. i had two serious job offers in three business days and it was pretty cool to actually have both offers on the table at once. the teaching job became a backup the minute i learned the details. there was a major stipulation: the old teacher could come back at any time she wanted and i would be out of a job. again. also, despite the pay being better than my current one, i had no benefits and was essentially a scab. yeah. fuck being a scab.

so i took the editing job. they really wanted me and i must say it felt good to finally be wanted. i'll be starting next week and honestly i can't wait to get back to the having a job lifestyle. i know that sounds silly but at least i'll stay busy now. fuck a bunch of not having a job for 10 months. it appears i may have a chance to move up in the ranks pretty quickly, too. they want to expand their audience so they can be a truly international publication. how? by publishing reference guides in other languages. rock and roll. im going to enjoy this last free weekend. later.
