Shrift, I'm afraid my job hunt has been in different fields than yours. Higheredjobs.com has produced the most interviews for me, but that only helps if you want a job in higher ed. Sorry you're at a point where you have to look.

I'm calling her Scarface for now. It looks a couple of days old, but it's a surface scrape and it doesn't appear suppurating or infected. .

She is following me ALL around the house. I love it

Enough adventures, Cosmo, stay snug at home in your hobbit hole.

In me news - this waking up in the cold and dark is, well, I was gonna say for the birds but birds famously wait until sunrise. Daylight Savings Time had gone on for too long is my point.
