Chickens, roost, etc.
Got the axe from UC--BY EMAIL--today. Again. Some more. I knew this would happen, later if not sooner. Still, getting let go by email after ten years is like being dumped by text message--it's depressingly impersonal, and makes me feel about as important as...well, about as important as I clearly am, frankly.
About two hours later, I got offered a class to teach at National in August, but alas I cannot teach it as it conflicts with my One. True. Job. So, I don't know what comes next. I'm thinking that I might actually go to school in the fall, and try to get back on with the co-op after the new year (and a trip with Mel & D) and just focus on economizing in the fall term. Really, I'm only going to lose two paychecks this year, so I have the time, and we have the money. In real terms, we have more money than ever, actually.
Also, I found out today that I'll have the money this week from the estate. That also opens up my options a lot. Really, there isn't likely to be a better time for me to get out of UC and on to ... whatever comes next. Now, if only I knew what that was... and whether to buy a house in the meantime.
