For the latest installment in the job-hunt saga, I will tell you that I turned in applications this week for two separate part-time, temporary reference librarian jobs--one at a local public library (the local library to which I've belonged the longest) and one at a local Conference USA school. I hear neither is a great place to work, but I'm obviously not in a position to be choosy. My money situation is about to be dire, despite my Target income, and I am also increasingly worried about being out of a library job for too long.
So, cross your fingers and pray for my latest endeavor. If one of these works out, it would not be a long-term solution, but it would at least give me more money, more experience, and more peace of mind.

The Slump
Remember how I said that there's nothing to stimulate the imagination at Target, and I worried that it would hurt my blogging?
I'm too tired to run a statistical analysis (yay 5080 (BTW, Starr--has Dr. Enoch left SLIS?), but I think it would prove that my blogging has declined proportionately to the amount of hours I'm working at Target. One reason for this is that I have fewer opportunities at the computer. Unfortunately, all of my computer activities have suffered of late.
No excuse, just an explanation.

Did I mention SweetPea, my new nephew? Oh, I guess I did.
Well let me just say that he is probably the most perfect specimen of a male baby on which I have ever laid eyes. Grandma and I went to visit him (and his big sister and parents) last week. I intended to take photos, but never did. A photo simply could not do him justice, and would be only a pale imitation of the real thing. In addition to his good looks, SweetPea is also mild and sweet-natured. We only heard him cry when he was having his diaper changed, and who could blame a boy for that?
