Adjunct

My real job has been going great. Stressful at times and boring at times like any job, but the people I work with are wonderful, and I am learning tons. So that is awesome. And, when I get home, I enjoy eating a wonderful dinner (generally cooked by Craig), watching HIMYM, and being a slug. I love slug nights.

But I never can stick with doing just one thing for long. . .

A friend of mine who teaches at Virginia College in Birmingham asked me if I wanted to be an adjunct teacher (instructor? professor?). Yes, please, thank you very much. There is a chance that I could teach a Sociology class next semester. :-D

Besides the fact that I only took one basic sociology class in undergrad, I am (mildly) qualified for this job -- basically because I have a JD and BSW. I just don't know a thing about teaching other than 3 year old and 4 year old preschool, and I wikied Sociology just to remind myself what the subject was about. I think I can do it. . . right?

I am very excited. Craig is jealous. Right now, I have 'stolen' two of his goals -- small town general practice and adjunct. I told him he should just get a job with legal services or some save the world nonprofit, and we can live vicariously through each other.

And other news: I get my fluffy white dog back tomorrow!! I've been without Otto for almost two weeks. I miss him :-(
