I'm bored, and I'm daydreaming. I've spent part of the afternoon thinking about upcoming plans for Thanksgiving and the winter holidays, and the rest of the afternoon thinking about furthering my career. In between fits of daydreaming, I'm reading the child welfare Field Guide and Family Decision Making Model. I know you're as thrilled as I am, but I figure I should read these things while I have the time and opportunity, because soon enough I'll be so overloaded that I won't even remember where it is.

All of my personal days got approved, so now I'm off from 26 November to 1 December (wahoo Thanksgiving!) and 12 December. I was going to use that day to go holiday shopping or whatever, but now I think I will try to see if I can get cheap airfare to NYC, since I've been promising Jodie and Louise and Stefan and Ron and everyone that I will visit for MONTHS. That would be pretty cool - by then I will have gotten several full paychecks and will have my unemployment credit card debt paid. Woot! Hopefully I can find some cheapola airfare or something. Cross your fingers for me! (Hey, [livejournal.com profile] rizzo41, do you have plans the weekend of 12 December?)

Part of me is tempted to look online for Big Gay Jobs across the country, and if I find one that I would really love, just applying for it and seeing what happens. But then I realize how terribly selfish that is on so many levels, not the least of which is the fact that I have a partner to consider who might not be willing (or able) to move to some other place just because I got a job. And how would we afford to move like that on short notice? As Carol Jean would say, "Being a grownup sucks."

But really - how cool would it be to find out that there's some /amazing/ job in, say, Washington DC... and then submitting a resume, and interviewing, and GETTING THE JOB? Gah, the thought makes me salivate. (I suppose part of the issue is that Coworker Sarah has warned me in advance that my Core 101 trainer, whom I will meet tomorrow, at some point in the training mentions sexual orientation as a choice. Ugh. I hope the complaints she and Coworker Kim lodged against him months ago mean that he has struck that portion from the training, because I'm just not in the mood to get in an argument with a trainer this week. Blah.) I want to be a Professional Queer again!

And guess what? There are three big sooper dooper birthdays today - [livejournal.com profile] sudrin, [livejournal.com profile] imagine77, and [livejournal.com profile] jjustj!

it's your birthday, babes -
hope you do something great that
you really enjoy


I'm babbling. La la la. Post me a haiku about Mr. Potato Head. Here's mine:

Mister Potato
used one of his "special" parts
and now has a spud.
