the beginning of the end

the exhibit is up and over. thank god. i'm incredibly glad that part of my stress is over and done with. however, i did get quite attached to every student in the class. they were a better bunch than last year's students, and i will be sad to see them go.

each person heard about my woes, issues, and jokes. it was an interesting semester.

jaylene: have you ever heard the term "absence makes the heart grow fonder?"
me: have you ever heard the phrase "out of sight, out of mind?"

i applied for a job in redding, which is approximately 64 miles north of chico. it's an exhibit technician position at the turtle bay exploration park. apparently, my chances are good. dr. fox is pretty confident i'll get the job. she says she has a gut instinct that i'll get it. maybe she has gas. adrienne says she's 90% sure i'll get the job.

i'm all for money and an exhibit job, but i'm afraid of living completely alone in a town i know no one and nothing about. scary scary. i keep thinking the town is populated with trashy rapists and murderers. oh joy.

help.
