Long Time Gone

Sorry for the delay in writing, I've just been busy with life, and not sitting at the computer a lot...

Happy May Day everyone! Let the revolution begin!

What's been going on recently? Well, my supervisor is leaving her job at the end of the summer, so one of the things on my plate is reflecting on whether or not it would be worthwhile to apply for the Director job. A number of people at work have asked if I am, and have been semi-encouraging about it, but I'm still thinking about it, with no real decision made one way or another... Watch this space for further updates.

We're in the home stretch of the semester, with the Finals period ending on May 15th, and students having to vacate their residence hall rooms by noon on May 16th. Graduation is May 20th, at the Garden State Arts Center, and I'll be working the event. Then, the glorious summer months begin, which will be very nice. I'm looking forward to getting a lot of work done, and having Friday's off starting in the middle of June.

We've had candidates in for the Resident Coordinator position open for this coming year. Good candidates, we have a plethora of riches in this search. That's been keeping me busy at work since Thursday. Soon, I'll get to start reference checks on people, which is always interesting to see what gets said (or not) during these conversations.

Sue and I saw "Hot Fuzz" over the weekend, and I have to say, it's the best comedy I've seen in the movies this year so far, or actually in quite awhile, even back into last year. Simon Pegg and his co-writer/director are great at making a parody, while also not getting caught up in trying to be PARODY, if that makes sense. I'll put it this way, the films stand up on their own as story/comedy, without even knowing all the details of the parody. A great comedy, go see it!
