It's a legal assistant (glorified legal secretary) or paralegal position, not sure exactly, this company had a couple of different positions they were considering filling a month ago. They may want part time, which at this point I said I was willing to consider, though I need full time with health insurance by the time I can't keep the COBRA coverage from my old job. So if I was to work part time, I'd have to keep looking. But even part time would extend the length of time before the unemployment insurance will run out. So I cross my fingers that I'll like them and they'll like me.

I'm glad to hear you liked the story!

Thanks again!

I'd love to find something part time with insurance that paid the bills, to leave me more time to write. It's the "with insurance and pays the bills" that's hard, though, to find in anything but full-time work.
