It's sometimes amazing how things can turn around in a short period of time. Without actually having any more positive prospects for employment, I am actually really not bitter any more. Disappointed, yes, definitely, and a little anxious still too. But the weather is supposed to warm up this week (after a two-week spell that was colder than most of February), and I can't complain about the social situation any more either. Without going into any details, I have to say that I have further proof that God has a slightly wicked sense of humor, and She is laughing Her ass off right now.
Of course, if any of you out there in the blogosphere are looking to hire a recent seminary graduate with interests in peace & justice, young adult ministry, or worship and the arts, you know where to find me...
