New Job

Hello,

My humble apologies for my silence. I've been more active in the last several months than in quite some time.

Among other things, I have a new full-time (if temporary) job. I grade essays on standardized tests. This requires much attention to detail and willingness to interpret rubrics and follow strict rules. Also, our office is kept as quiet as possible so we can focus on our work.

I've "come out" to the site manager, and she's been helpful and supportive so far. In fact, she finds many aspects of AS - like our willingness to actually answer a yes-or-no question with "yes" or "no" - to be strengths. As of now, it's likely that I'll be called back for subsequent assignments.

So, I like my work - and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Emily and I are going away for the weekend. When we get back, I'll post more on what I've been doing this semester.
