Today's observations
As previously noted on Facebook, in the wake of reading Jeff VanderMeer's novel Finch, I will now and forever find the phrase "fruiting bodies" icky. Icky: that's a technical term

Having found employment, I have received, in the last two days, at least ten calls from agencies wanting to talk to me about contract work. The phone has not stopped ringing.

But wasn't that temporary anyway? Isn't that good?

It's contract work that was supposed to be part time. It's rapidly becoming clear that during the "on" weeks (because apparently there will be "off" weeks, we're going to be on every day all the time. Should be...entertaining.

It's prom time. As soon as you get a date, all the other boys call. *sigh* Why is it always like that?

Perhaps what sophie really wants is to be an artist. :-)

I can't speak to the eccentricities of the job market. But I can speak to Sophie's prospects as an artist. She's certainly got the look and the temperament. Question is: Does she have the chops? I'm still not convinced. :-)
