Job "hunt"

For those of you who have recently been in a heart wrenching job hunt (like my friend Dave, who applied to over 40 schools, or Kristen who got multiple on campus interviews that waited a month to tell her what they decided, or me, who had to move to Texas, or most of the real live adults in this world who have been out of work for a long time due to the the economy) let me tell you a story about my fiancee, who is apparently the most hirable woman in the country.

Today at 11:40 Phone call from a school that Cortney has had no previous contact with besides sending in her resume cold.

"Hello miss Korshak, we have your resume. We would like to interview you for a position at our school. Can you come in today?"

"Well I would love to but I am in chicago right now and you are in Texas and I am getting married in 4 days so I can't come down right now."

"Oh ok, well can we interview you over the phone later today?"

Today at 1:20 Phone interview, goes pretty well.


Today at 2:50
"Hello Miss Korshak, how would you like to get married and get a job all in one week...by the way, we need to know by 4:00?"

Oh yes that's right my friends. Cortney went through the hiring process in 5 hours. Let us also keep in mind that her track record for her career is now

2 phone interviews = 2 jobs

This does not count the time she told a school she wasn't interested in interviewing with them becuase they also wanted to make her the head soccer coach.

Apparently Cortney can't miss. I have decided that next time we move I am going to move I am just going to be

A leave of absence

Hey friends.

It's been a difficult few days. Now that LeBron has left Cleveland I've had to double my depression meds and triple my therapy. But there is a chance that I will still be able to scrape together some semblance of meaning in life. I can still have kids and send them to Taylor.

Anyway. This week I am going to be going to Illinois to get married, then off to my honeymoon. I would like to still be blogging in the middle of all that, but I have a feeling that Cortney would rather I pay attention to her. SO, I think it will be a while before I am back here bloging. I hope that in that time we will figure out a solution to the LeBron situation. In the mean-time, peep these engagement pictures that my sister took of us last week.
