Life stuff; Age of Steel

Today I went to the library and checked out nine books. I got home and read one of them in just two sittings over the course of the afternoon. Granted, it was a relatively quick read: Plane Insanity, a collection of essays by flight attendant Elliott Hester on the craziness he's run into over the years (hysterical; highly recommended), but still. I realized this week that I no longer have to schedule my library visits and pleasure reading around my vacations from school. I haven't been able to do that since I started high school.

Now that's rather cool. This graduating thing has its benefits.

Today I also revised my resume to include my museum internship, picked up a job application from the library (according to their website, they're only actively looking for four or so positions which can only be filled by people with an MLS, but since they keep applications on file for a year or so, I figured it can't hurt to put my name in the pot for some kind of peon job for holders of a BA; besides, since I'm seriously contemplating an MLS/MLIS myself, I'd like to get some experience before I commit to another degree), and hunted down three different small presses, one of which is seeking an editorial assistant, and the other two of which accept resumes and keep them on file for some time. Yay for not being lazy? My goal is to have some kind of steady job by the end of June, even if "steady job" equates to "being listed with a temp agency."
