Good news, everyone!
Not only have the jackbooted thugs overlooked me, but it appears that I have been hired to be a network administrator at an educational foundation in Maine. Mysteriously, it seems that my responsibilities, while dominated by computer stuff, will also include engineering renewable energy systems at the foundation and helping to build a cold-molded sailboat used for wilderness trips in the summer.
I’ll be driving back and forth between Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Wiscasset, Maine, on a weekly basis. I guess I’ll have to get a new car– I don’t think the old one will make it.
