I lost track of how many job applications I sent out. I think I'm somewhere around 135. And, so far, two interviews.
Yep, it's an especially tough job market. When I was hunting it took me around a year, sending out five applications a week. (I set a goal of one per work day. Luckily my supervisor and I were on a race out the door, so I could job hunt on the clock.) My non-profit has some openings (in public health, not math, sorry), and our employment page gets 50% more hits than our home page. Well, partly due to the fact that our home page sucks, but still, it's pretty competitive.
Good luck with the hunt. Does your university offer any sort of job hunting help?
I finally took the plunge and have bright pink bangs and crown.
And it looks great! Thanks for the input.
I have done something to my neck that has made it sore to the touch on the left side. Meh, says I.
Off to a safety meeting. Probable further meh.
Cash, not only is that a great letter, but the whole event is one of those that reaffirm that humanity might not be quite ripe for being lined up against a wall and mown down with a machine gun. Yet.
smonster, I was in a hurry to get to work yesterday, and then when I got home, was so cold and frozen I had to snuggle intensely with Daniel for a good long while. So here is what I think: You look great with dark hair, I think you will look great with red all over, and I would also like to see you in red highlights sometime. I second suggestions for a wine-red, and I bet you would totally rock a plum kind of color, too. So basically, there is no wrong answer there.
Cash, that is a lovely letter and an excellent follow-up to a lovely gesture by a stranger.
Woke up this morning with my head feeling woozy.
Also, just saw a couple of young folks come in all dressed up in their interview suits but with no coats. People: it is 12 degrees out with a windchill below zero. WEAR A COAT.

Working on a college campus, I am continually astonished at the stunningly weather-inappropriate sartorial choices students make.
Cash, what a terrific story and you wrote a terrific letter.

Yes. Shorts, pajamas, and flip flops come to mind immediately. IN THE WINTER.

Well, I don't dress like that too often...
P.-C., "unrolling" is fine. However, I'd probably delete that part as unnecessary. After all, that is the only way to get one on, so why bother saying it?
Now I'm expecting people to come up with other ways of getting a condom on.
