So, finally back in the swing of things. Gotta say, it's good to be back!
I'm getting antsy for a more full-time position. I've loved being an adjunct and all, but I need something that can carry me through the down time. I came to this realization over the winter break when MB needed my part of the mortgage and I had nothing to offer him but a smile. I know there will be more money coming in this semester since I picked up an extra class, but I worry for summer when school's out. Then what? I'll have about a month for subbing then I'm SOL until the workshop starts this summer. I'm only doing one session, under the recommendation of the department chair since no one signed up last year.
I hate this, getting started and established. It's such a money drain but we needed to do it. Now MB's got a great new job, and even though he hasn't been paid yet (will be next week I believe) he'll still make more than me. I hate that I don't feel I'm pulling my weight. Hopefully having these two sections this semester will lighten my mood. I've been without a major paycheck for about 3 weeks. Not sure when the first will come for this semester, but it can't come fast enough!
Anyway, I've procrastinated long enough here. Lots to do and no time to waste. Got to get this place in shape for company tomorrow. We've started a monthly poker night and I hate how messy it looks in here. Plus, I need to get food. Our fridge is bare, solids-wise. We're well-stocked with liquid refreshments, as it were.
Happy weekend!
Thanks for reading,
Ter
