News: No News. No Job. Not yet...

Coffee: GREAT store called Parker & Otis!! http://www.parkerandotis.com/store/index.php


Not necessarily as good as Solstice, but definitely top 5! Good thing it is all the way in Durham, because otherwise I may have another expensive addiction. However, that is relative: NOTHING is expensive here. To waste the day yesterday (because all I do these days is wait for interviews) Barb and I went to a movie (the Ugly Truth... Who can resist Katherine Heigl??) and it was after 5 but still matinee at $5.50. Best part of my day.

Today I came down to Durham for EC (Exceptional Children = SPED) training, mostly for SOMETHING to do. Also, its good professional training anyway, so why not, right?

I feel a little better about not being placed yet. I talked to a friend in the Boston Corps, and they have 15 people not yet placed. We only have 3. And we are all Science Teachers. Which helps show that it is not the people, but the content area, which is stalled in getting us jobs.

I did find a GREAT place to live, with one of the other CMs (Corps Members) out in Norlina, North Carolina...

Its way out in the Tobacco fields of NC, and it is VERY rural. PERFECT. Hopefully I will be able to live there, but I'll have to wait until I get a job!!
