There's this weird sort of urgency right now - this feeling of "every one's leaving!" So there are a number of impromptu get-togethers. The thing is, assuming we all stay in the field, the field is pretty incestuous and we'd all end up meeting again here or there, at this conference or that one.

Just... one of those things.

I'm also in this place that is completely new for me - I don't know what is coming next. I've always always had the next step in place, but right now I don't. And that next step has always been school. Now it's not. It's a job. I just don't know what to do with myself. I'm reading non fiction (A history of the knights Templar that I picked up in the used book shop at the Milwaukee airport. Geeky, huh?), thinking about knitting, doing some knitting... Golly I don't know how to be an adult.

----

Not that these things are bad and that I'm complaining overmuch, it's just new. It has a different flavor than those things which came before it.

I'm feeling kind of the same way. I thought I had a good plan... and it's not a bad plan, just not definite enough for my liking. Adulthood isn't going over well, either. I may end up finding a temporary job to fill space, time, and my wallet before I can get a relevant museum job. I learned today that craigslist is a surprisingly good place to look.

Lots of knitting and cooking here, and I'll have to get photos up one of these days! Argh, not having my own camera.
