And...

The reason I quit my job, which is the reason I'm unemployed, which is the reason this blog (barely) exists, was so I could focus on completing grad school applications, and completing them well. A few actually let me in, so in the fall I will start a dual Master's degree program at the University of Chicago. (This bird does not fall far from the nest.) I officially accepted my admission offer(s) yesterday, so..... mission accomplished. Time to get a job.
