Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

This isn't creative writing (much) but I am starting the scary process of sending out covers and resumes for teaching jobs.

Would anyone be willing to take a gander, for proofing, ideas, whatever? Feedback is SO good.

Erin, you can send it to me if you'd like. Profile addy is good.

Kristin, insent.

Susan, thanks so much. I was following the one page resume rule; is that rule now dead?

Well, it's more a suggestion than a rule. I know when I've been on the hiring side of the desk, I'd rather look at an easy-to-read 1 1/2-pager with nice bits of white space than a crowded 1-pager. It'd be different if you were two years out of undergrad and had a long resume because you'd listed every last little activity you did in college and high school and went on in great detail about your burger-flipping job when you were 16, but yours looked to be relevant info.

OK, cool.

I hate smooshing it, anyway.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

First pass pages for Matty have arrived. Layout looks good. Proofing.

This is the annoying bit. Word by word....
