Long Time Gone
Aaaaaaaaaaand…..
We’re back.
17 days, 4,300 miles, 60+ pictures. Granted, the ratio of pics is heavily tilted towards The West, but I ran out of steam once we crossed the Rockies and hit the Plains/Midwest. From that point forward, I only took pictures when I saw a sign silly enough to warrant firing up the camera. After we left the flatlands, the stretch from Pennsylvania up through New York and into New England was beautiful, but by that time I was burned out on photography and driving, and it was pouring down rain, anyway. (Also, fuck Connecticut. Fuck it right in the ear.)
So here I am, back in the Motherland, with the wifi hooked up and roughly a three week window to find employment before the money runs out. I’ve already applied for open positions at two public libraries and one academic library, but I’m not holding my breath.
And did I mention that I’m getting married in 42 days? Yeah, that too.
So I’m sure that loads of crucially important events have happened in the field of Library and Information Science in the three+ weeks I’ve been gone, and I know there’s much in the field of politics worthy of ranting over (hey, look! it’s DubYa’s colon!) but I’m still getting up to speed. It’ll take a few days to get back into Full-On Rant Mode.
In the meantime, eat my Simpsons Avatar.
