This Fall

I'll be teaching freshman comp at UM. The dept. likes to hedge its bets though, so they've only given me a one semester spot, with no guarantees afterward. That means that finding this particular job is really only a brief reprieve from looking for a new one.

In other news, I didn't get the Press job. They opted for a former work-study student, since they'd have to train him/her less.

So I'm officially a lecturer now, having signed papers and filled out forms. I never wanted to teach, but now I am, out of necessity. Strange how that works.
