Well the search for full-time work will be officially under way this week, now that we’re past the holidays and into the first quarter of the new year. Pretty much everyone I asked said no one would be looking to make moves until after January. So that justified a nice long nearly two-month [[link]] staycation that was still nonetheless full of existential angst. Many friends in D.C. tried to cheer me up with job notices and encouraging words — apparently a new administration brings with it tons of openings. I’ll pass. It’s not that I’m ideologically opposed to the incoming government, but [[link]] when Obama’s team is vetting people and one of the questions is “have you ever sent any embarrassing emails?” I think I can stop that process well short of the inevitable painful background checks.
Some of what you missed as we finally wrapped up the holiday schedule:
Theremin Hero Nails Still Alive
Gamer [[link]] Kid Gets Hedgehog Legalized in Kansas
Some Things You Can’t Unsee (or Unhear)
Illinois Legislates Out of Existence Something That Doesn’t Exist
