So in the ongoing saga of trying to find a new full-time job, I had these great interviews, and very rigorous too, at two universities, one here in town and the other 2 hours from here...I haven't heard anything yet. Universities are notoriously slow to hire, and even though I felt really good after my interviews, I'm afraid maybe it wasn't as positive on their side. It's hard to know.

Anyhow, the good news is that the local museum is looking for someone to head up their development department, and not only is this my field, and do I have experience doing this, I have experience at a very well known, international museum that I worked at for many years in Los Angeles, so my resume should look fairly impressive to them. Additionally, I have knowledge of the local philanthropic community.

The only possible drawback is that I would have to make it through the board of trustees at the museum to get this job, and there are a couple people on the museum board who are on the board of the other organization that I worked for and may or may not be aware that I am currently suing them for disability discrimination.

On the other hand, those two board members also know that that organization has just settled two other discrimination complaints out of court, so the fact that it is clearly something happening at that organization would be no surprise to them, AND, they are by far NOT stupid men. They are very business savvy so I would think that they know what's really up and going on at that organization...considering the financial problems that organization has and that none of that was a reflection on myself.

Just keeping my fingers crossed.
