Hi Liz,
To sum it up... s l o w.

I'm pretty flexible as far as time frame goes but the j-o-b situation pretty much sucks. Here, I can't find anything temporary to pass the time -- in the other city, I can find a job, just can't find housing. I did try commuting but with a 2hr drive each way (and a one hr time difference)... plus the gas & wear/tear on the car, it wasn't worth the pay. I was getting up at 3.30am and getting home at 6.30pm; with the onset of classes (which start at 5.00pm) it just wasn't feasible.

I'm (half-heartedly) considering staying here until I finish my masters (another yr and a half-ish). Don't want to but looks like it might be my only other option at this point.

I did apply for a position (here) on Friday but have yet to hear anything back. Maybe it will pan out...

Thanks for asking!!
