Plans

So I've got this beautiful dream of what my life could be like if I get a teaching job next year:

• Stay in my apartment
• Start building a work wardrobe based on Anthropologie and Ambiance dresses
• Convert the bedroom into a home office (if an at-home workspace begins to feel necessary)
• Sneak a pet into my apartment, namely a fancy rat (self-contained, no external mess or noise to alert neighbors to an infraction)
• Fall desperately in love and all that

Of course, at the rate things are going, I will NOT get a teaching job, I will end up moving out of my apartment and in with craigslist roommates way out in Fogsville aka Outer Richmond/Sunset, I will never have a pet, will have to sell what little furniture I have, will continue to wear jeans with everything, and will remain dreadfully single.

There is clearly no in between.
