Haha ha hahaaahaha, ha.
So I came in this morning oppressed by a feeling of dread. I knew that I would writing emails all morning and most of the afternoon. I knew this because I tried to send out a bunch friday but our VPN is the suck and, as it was blizzarding outside, I decided not to drive back into work.
So I walked into my office, turned on my computer, fired up thunderbird (with which I am currently underwhelmed) and started downloading my email. I had 102 new emails. I started applying to new jobs. Haha. Now I am a little more right in the head, now I can actually do this. I think I have come to grips with what I need to do... for now at least.
On a side note, I really need to get fluent in another language. It appears that a lot of academic library jobs either require or desire fluency. Do audio CDs actually work?

Why are you all of a sudden in more of a position to jobhunt? Have you delegated everything off to your cronies? I used to jobhunt at work and then a couple days later my boss would always pull me aside and promise to send me to Japan soon. Sneaky bastard ..
As for the Audio CD thing, they only work if you actually listen to them, which is hard to bring yourself to do if you like music, since if you have the time to listen to something shouldn`t it be something like the new Reverend Glasseye album instead?
I agree that group interactions are the best way to learn, but that`s not always readily available, is it .. I say just watch a bunch of movies with the subtitles off. Or, turn the subtitles on and the sound off, depending on which way you`re swinging. Swing!
holy craps!
<swoon>
