What's new?

It's been a little while since I've posted anything here so here's the 60 second update:

I got offered a new position at OSU which was subsequently rescinded after I had turned in my letter of resignation. My then current office got my soon to be vacant position re-posted to hire someone new (in amazing record time, mind you) so when I asked about withdrawing my resignation because the job was no longer there they said the refused my withdrawal because they've already "...taken affirmative steps to fill the vacancy...". So, now I no longer have a job since I "willingly" resigned. As if that's not bad enough, one of our cats fell off the balcony last week and tore a muscle in her hind leg which should be surgically repaired. A surgery that will cost $500 at our vet's office. That's better than the $1400+ at the emergency clinic but without a job, it's understandably difficult to quickly come up with the cash. Of course, this is in addition to the $200 visit to get Lily looked at and x-rays taken...

I'm ready for some good news to come my way. Please?
