I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm reeling, really. After so much BS over the past year, I forgot what it's like to have something really, really good happen. I'm kind of freaked out to go to sleep tonight, because what if I wake up tomorrow and it was a dream?

But it's not, it's real, I get to live in a super cool city, and I get to teach astronomy and AP physics at a really awesome school. And from what I can tell so far, every single person I've met or talked to by phone so far is excited to have me there, and I'm excited to be going there!

I am kind of scared to tell some people at my old school, there are people there who did like and appreciate me at least some of the time. I know it's going to be an added stress on them to find a new physics teacher. I know one of the physics teachers here was looking forward to doing this particle physics experiment, since I do have a Fermilab detector sitting in my apartment that I constructed for him. (Fermilab has this outreach program where they have little muon counters and teachers and kids in different high schools throughout the world can help them take cosmic ray data.) There are a couple of teachers that I would like to see to say goodbye to, but I just don't think that's going to happen.

Oh well, I can't worry about that. I have to make myself happy. Kick ass folks, kick ass town, kick ass job. Hells to the yeah!
