Life, the Universe, and Assistantships...
Sometimes you just have to laugh. Dr. B just contacted me through email and told me that there was a last-minute drop by a funded student, so my name is next on the list, but because of my Herald position, he doesn't think I can take it. Actually, I can take it. I was doing the Herald job at the same time I was doing the associateship last year, and through the summer when I had both positions. But it doesn't matter. I'm teaching this semester at KVCC, and the Herald job is something I'm very interested in doing anyway.

Yet, 3 days before classes start, an assistantship appeared open. That's probably what I find really funny. It's not one of those laughs you point at anyone in particular. Just a laugh nonetheless.

I'd take it if it was a teaching job, but I don't think I'd be all that interested in grading papers or being someone's go-for next semester. Who needs that kind of life?
