plus ca change, plus ca meme

It's funny how sometimes just waiting a day or two can change things. The other day it felt as though several job opportunities had fallen through, and they had. But all is not lost. A couple more have appeared and now there are 2 that look promising and one is still a possibility. Oh, and another one is getting lined up. It's a little frustrating that the most definite possibilities are still a month away from any decision, but after all this time, perhaps a month isn't so bad.

I've just had to deal with not being able to practice my profession, but when I have a chance to talk about it, I realize how it's still fresh to me, even after 20 years. Mostly except for administrative hassles, my last job was ideal. I was still connected to medicine and I was paid to do something I love - dig for information. I also learned that I really enjoy teaching. There was a lot of satisfaction in helping people learn how to find what they needed. And their appreciation was great. To quote Tallulah Bankhead, "To hell with criticism, praise is good enough for me!"
