So, I decided to apply for a second job again. I've done it intermittently over the past year or so with no luck. This time, I feel good about an opportunity. However, I am in the parking lot because I have to wait. I'm here; they're here. They won't let anyone in for at least another half hour.
Why a second job? Grad school. Even though I only have 3 classes left, I can't take them because I still owe an exorbitant amount for a singular class I took last year. They will not let me move forward until the amount is paid. I'd really love to finish my degree, but it seems like there's always something that gets in my way.
If you're thinking that I make more than enough as a librarian to pay off my class, you don't know many librarians. I'm not in this for the money. I love my job; I love almost everything about it. I just don't make quite enough to pay off this class sooner.
If you or someone you know has $2000 lying around that can be given to a good cause, let me know.
I don't like waiting to drop off my application, and I definitely don't like waiting to finish my degree.
Herbert Samuel described a library as "thought in cold storage." This blog is a collection of thoughts, sometimes about libraries, sometimes not, and sometimes those thoughts are cold. I'm not a library, but I work in one.

I am *NOT* doing theatre for a while
Willy Wonka is over! It's always bittersweet to be done with a show. It will definitely be nice to have some free time again. I'm not going to do a show until next year. I know that that is going to be a first for me, but I've got to focus on finishing grad school. I even signed up for Quintiles to get the money I need, $2200. If I can get it before the semester starts this Fall, it would be great, but I'm not holding my breath. I would love to go into detail about how I'm stuck in my program, but it's better not to have a written account of it before I'm done. That way, there won't be anything keeping them from conferring my degree (just in case). So, maybe things will work out?
