Oh, I know the market's in the toilet. I'm in Kansas because living with the parents until my student loans are under control is the best of all possible options until things clear up.The teaching job market is awful. It's a shame because there are many bright, motivated grads out there that would make great teachers, but few jobs :(
What's extra fun is subbing for old teachers and remembering how terrible they were.

Good evening FAWTLY Folk! I hope everyone had a happy Saturday! Charlie and I spent most of the morning and early afternoon together while mommy went in to work. Then around 1500 we went over to my buddy Andrew's house for his neighborhood's annual block party. The wife met us there. Charlie had a blast. Good food. Good booze. Good friends. All in all, it was agreat evening. I finally got home about 40 mintues ago.

Huzzah! And I just sent you another one. I had worked it earlier today while Charlie was napping, and finished it up when I got home a little while ago.

And I responded. :)
As always, I ate too much: about 7 ribs, 5 hot dogs, and numerous chips and snacks.
nn...n.no....bacon,.....
Florida is hot, as advertised.
The place we are staying is quite nice, and it is good to see family. There is wifi I can access on my phone (no cell signal though), so I'll be sure to check in.
Texas is hotter. It's 9:00 pm in Dallas, and it's fighting to stay 100 degrees.
I cannot wait to get a real teaching job so I no longer have to do retail. Having a real weekend would be a dream.I am trying to get into a Grad program now for Education. Where are you looking for work?Kansas primarily. Also endorsed in Iowa.
My mistake was focusing in social studies but not coaching.
Share please... I was thinking of focusing on SocStu/History... what was the drag, if you don't mind?

Social studies is incredibly oversaturated. I think most ed majors go for it. Thus coaching is recommended to differentiate yourself, but I hate sports and would be a terrible coach. Yet they don't seem open to the fact that other activities need sponsors, too...
I went into this because history was a favorite subject, not thinking about the market as much as I should have. If you really want to teach right out the door, go for math, science, ESL, or special education. Those are the areas of need from what I've heard.
Math, science, engineering, biological field, aerospace field (if some things happen the way I hope they do), trade fields (electrical, welding, plumbing, ect.), medical, construction. All of those need people and could use good teachers.
Hopefully not Westboro.

No brains? I would say you didn't eat enough...
hi everyone
slow sunday, quite sunny and beautiful outside
we started working on a photobook for the vacation
I have finally uploaded a metric ton of pics to Photo bucket
Password is Aeglos
All the Meet up pic are in the FaWtl subsection,
the westCoast pics are from some reason not in correct order, the pics of us two in front of a door are back at home, Sabine's aunt had decorated our frontdoor with a engagement greeting and had left a present there
The album shows up as empty when I log on. :(

Do you have AdBlock or NoScript? Photobucket is very script-heavy.
Scintillae I forgot to ask. Where in KS are you?
KC metro
I am a sad monkey today. My faithful companion George passed away in his sleep early this morning. It's quite a shock, he had shown no signs of illness, other than a lack of appetite which I put down to the temperature around here lately. God speed you on your next adventure, my fuzzy baby. :'(
Bummer!
I'm sorry Patrick. He looks like a friendly, happy dog, unlike most I have encountered. He's in the hunting grounds now.

I'm so sorry to hear that Patrick.
*man hug*
My condolences, Patrick. I have only had Duke for about 11 months but he is very much a part of me now. I know what a hole would be in my soul should I lose him so I can imagine what you are feeling now.
+1 hug
I'm sorry Patrick. He looks like a friendly, happy dog, unlike most I have encountered. He's in the hunting grounds now.Golden retrievers pretty well epitomize happy friendly dogs.
I'm so sorry to hear this Patrick.
+1 Pat.
My condolences as well Patrick.

When I saw your update on FB, tears were streaming down my face. My fuzzies mean the world to me. What's important is that he went peacefully and that he had a family that loved him.
Good ole' George.
Condolences Patrick.

D'oh! Didn't scroll that far down.
Postitive waves +2 to Patrick. It must suck right now.
Condolences Patrick. Man's best friend indeed.

This weekend was generally less wonderful than advertised. Except for Batman.

Enjoying the Florida trip even though we are stuck inside due to rain. We determined that the last time all of my siblings and I were in the same place at the same time was 6 years ago today for my brother's wedding.
It's even good seeing the nieces and nephews, even though they remind me at times why I don't particularly want kids...
