Well, the uncomfortable and painful stone of unemployment has finally passed. Yesterday, Friday the 11th of October, I accepted a full-time position and I will begin working next Monday, the 21st. Not only is the job in my field of study, it is the most exciting opportunity that has come along since I have graduated. To my good fortune, it also happened to be the one that worked out (well, it was also my suave looks and mind-boggling ability in addition to fortune). I am very excited.
To celebrate, Dinka and I headed to Chicago for the night. We caught a screening of the Austrian film Hundstage (which I have written a bit about here) at the Chicago Film Festival (which I had earlier complained about not being able to attend), ate a very nice dinner at Yen's and continued the rewarding with the purchase of a few books. Despite a disappointing film, it was all quite nice.
In addition, I am sick for the first time in recent memory. It's been mostly headaches and generally feeling lousy so far, but I can handle it, especially since everything else seems to be going so right.
Consider this entry a tremendous sigh of relief.
Congratulations!!!

(once more) :-)))) well, about being sick: that was to be expected. whenever a big tension is over, the body allows itself to express the discomfort which it had been putting up with for a long time - but don't worry, it'll be over in no time at all ... :-) feeling optimistic and happy will repair it, tessa
