Life in Denim and Flip Flops

anticipation never disappointing it gets me through the week simple fellowship and a few stolen moments never more than that, but its enough for now "without music, it takes more faith." -Fr. Victor

Ok, so when I posted last, I had a 15 page paper left to write, 2 weeks of work, a lesson to write, and a job interview. And somehow last Sunday I managed to graduate with a job in hand. It's crazy. I applied for the job the last weekend in March and accepted the job May 16. I know that sounds like a long time, but for a position in academia, that's crazy. I still haven't heard from some of the places I applied to in February, much less have had 2 rounds of interviews. Yikes. From the time I sent in my application to the day I start is 10 weeks. :) Somehow I transitioned directly from OMG everything is due in like 3 days and I graduate and life is crazy to OMG I start a job June 11 and have to find a place to live in Dubuque before then. I'm spending tomorrow there looking at apartments, then I get to head back to Madison to finish packing up my life and cleaning the apartment. I'm really excited, but I'm so sick of packing already and I'm no where near done...

So we're hanging out tonight to pose for photo for a video project. And starting to drink. It's fun. My fave quote so far is: B: "The Librarian 2...in your pants!" E: "Hopefully our future husbands will own a copy of that movie." A: "Do I look like the sex tape type to you?" Somehow we also devolved into singing bad versions of both Hairspray and Les Mis at the same time. :) If you really want to know, I'll explain, but right now, I've got to take a picture!

Seriously lacking time here right now. I'm stoked about the Dave Barnes concert tomorrow night, and about finally kicking back on the terrace Wednesday night with the girls, but until a good portion of this freaking homework is done, I shouldn't even be on this blog. So, I'm signing off now to finish paper number 1, so I can work on pointless journal number 3. So much to talk about soon, but first I've got to survive long enough to get there. :)
