progress

you may find yourself wondering what i've been able to accomplish in the last 2 days. well, i went to work, both days, all day long (that's generally how it works, so no major accomplishment there). last night, after dan & i enjoyed a chipotle dinner & a walk to the grocery store, i updated my resume & officially applied for that job at habitat. thanks to the danner for saving my horrendous cover letter. in roughly 10 minutes, he came up with something that was more concise, compelling & truthful than the drivel i wrote in an hour. so now we know who has the big brain in this family - the big-D (not that there was ever any question there). if i end up going back to school, i'm afraid i'll want his help WAY too often. i can't even remember how to write a paper. jeez!

at any rate, i also looked in to the architecture program at morgan & found out physics is what i need. so the plan is to sign up for a physics class tomorrow. YIKES! honestly, this was not in my plans at the beginning of the week... & look where we are. but i have to say, making progress feels good. working towards SOMETHING feels good, even if it ends up not being the right thing.

so i guess we'll see if i actually make it into the physics class. there's only one section & it meets mon & wed from 5-7:30pm starting next week (as in, 3 days from now). eek.

oh, & i got a response from my resume this morning. i'll have an interview sometime next week. now i just have to figure out how to approach this subject at work - that i'm looking around. stay tuned. i'm off to read some books about grad school & sustainable building schools.
