Last day at the job. →[More:]I've been here for a little over a year. As recently as eight weeks ago, there was talk of converting me over to FTE, but five weeks ago, they decided they wouldn't finish this project nor keep me (nor the other business analyst, who's already found her next job).

Not sure what’ll happen next; I’ll probably be “on the beach” for a couple of weeks, given the slow way the job-search-and-interview wheels seem to grind. I’m going to set up Ubuntu Linux on a laptop I got last month. There’s a web site at church that needs revamping, and I can start exploring how we’ll do that. Beyond which, I sure hope I don’t wind up proofreading M&Ms out of sheer boredom.

My résumé's on some desks around town, but I've interviewed only with recruiters so far -- no hiring managers have asked to speak with me. I wish this process were a little faster and surer. And so does my checking account.

Meanwhile, next Friday's the end of my marriage, too. Lotsa transitions coming close together.
