Okay, so I am now unemployed, which will be terrifying just as soon as it hits me that I'm not on a long weekend. It's not like I've been working all that much (16 hrs/week for the past several years), but I'd been at that job since 1999. Spent most of yesterday emptying out folders full of paperwork from six years ago (which, it turned out, I ( Read more... )

I was unemployed was when I was 31, too.

OTOH, I was the thinnest I've ever been since college when I was 31, mostly because I was unemployed.

Excellent, I'll assume it's a peak/nadir of some kind, and I'm destined to lose weight! Yes, that's a logical conclusion to draw.

Congrats on being unemployed! That means you are just that much closer to being a teacher. Now, if your placement office could get their act together and actually notify you of your placement, that would be good.

Congrats, and good luck! I have been followin LJ only spottily so now must read back to sort out what's happened.

I'm still confused about the idea of you teaching math and not English!

Yeah, well, what can I say? The idea of trying to explain tone and symbolism to teenagers fills me with dread (possibly not helped by having a viscerally bad reaction to most discussions of tone or symbolism) -- but why all square numbers are the sums of sequential odd numbers? Fun!

Yeah, there's a whole lot of plan. I just wish I had a slightly better idea what the hell it is!
