Hey look who came back!!!!! *waves*

Thanks! I'll be sure to let you know how well the job club thing goes when it actually starts up (which probably won't be until next month or June, since everyone at my main job will be really busy for the next two weeks putting together their big yearly fundraiser). ;-)

But otherwise, it looks like things are slowly but surely starting to fall in place for me. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment! :D
