Still unemployed
… not that I’m looking … yet ….
But my sister *does* have a job now, starting some time this week. She’ll be a news clerk at the local paper (really local, not a Scripps-Howard), and it sounds like a very good place to work — nice boss, who also started as a news clerk, and won’t be too ogrish to work for. Which I guess means she’s not likely to start a Horrible-Job-Blog, which isn’t a bad thing. Only drawbacks identified so far is that it’s in the next town, which means a bit of a commute, and that she has to pass a drug test before starting. The second one shouldn’t be a problem, of course, unless she celebrates with poppyseed cake.
Of course, this means that, not only did she finish her thesis before I even started mine, she also beat me to the world of RealJobs.
Congratulations, Sarah, and may it be a great (first) job

Sentiments worthy of you, as you congratulate her. Seems the 3 previous holders of this job all began to act weird after about a week on the job, and all had failed the drug test. She hasn’t been a bit weird. Except the stories she brings home, which are just weird enough to be true.
