Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Am I the only person on the planet who watches Species?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I really should apply for this job:
Position's primary responsibilities are: head Theatre Technology Program, recruit students, teach courses in the Theatre Technology Program, advise theatre technology majors, supervise student production work in coordination with the professional production staff, all within an intensive BFA conservatory training program.
It's the type of thing I should be moving toward and I can walk to this university from where I currently live! However, I've never applied for an academic position and I'm feeling very clueless about the process.

Aimee, I lived in Philly for 2 years. Manayunk is a really cute sort of quasi hipster neighborhood, but it gets lots of bar people on weekends and the traffic there can be a damn nightmare because you're right on the river.
so cute little Irish boy walking out of the subway station as I was walking in and I said out loud - "What a cutey He is."
You should so come to Ireland with us!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Aurelia, you definitely should apply. I bet there are a lot of people around who could help you.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
From an LATimes article on the failure of the school system.
Seidel once brokered multimillion-dollar business deals but left a 25-year law career, hoping to find a more fulfilling job and satisfy an old desire to teach. Nothing, however, prepared him for period five.
"I got through a year of Vietnam," he said, "so I tell myself every day I can get through 53 minutes of fifth period…. I don't know if I am making a difference with a single kid."
I so have that 5th period class. I tell myself, "you've run marathons! you can survive 5th period!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I went to school in Philly, too. I liked it. It's little, which of course I didn't really realize until I visited, post-NYC.
And my only earwax issue is over-zealous q-tipping, according to my ENT -- he said they were overly clean. But I DON'T CARE.
Aurelia, that's exciting! Just make your resume as long as possible, and call it a vita. t /not that helpful

I so want to poke at Jesse about her Philly school.

Because it's so awesome?
Oh, Manayunk is cute, but not that close to downtown, in Philly terms. I think. Now I want to draw the map of Center City that showed up in every class I ever took, that I actually just had to draw over the weekend.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
aurelia, apply! You'd be perfect for that job. I bet Drew could give you some pointers.
