Well. It's been a while. A lot has happened, and most of you already know all about it I'm sure (as is the tendency of extended family), but I'll fill you in anyway. A summary of the last 3 months.....
Venice and general gallivanting.
I went to Venice and Spetses (a tiny island near Athens) for a total of 5 weeks. BEST TIME EVER. End of. I have not

I love you. And it won't always look this bleak.

I stacked a dishwasher for the summer after leaving Durham, and then wrote over 250 applications before landing a proper teaching job. And then it was only for 2 terms... After the dishwashing finished I filled in for a term with supply teaching. That was a lot of fun and taught me a hell of a lot about actual classroom teaching. I don't think things are that bleak yet. Keep your fingers suitably knotted, apply for anything even remotely like what you really want to do, and try for an MA place next year or the year after.

I've been unemployed for quite a while now. I sympathise. On the other hand, I'd quite like to be in a position to be *applying* for jobs... and(mumble) years younger
