why not take a crazy chance?

So, I'm going to do something a little crazy. There's a position open for a Young Adult Services Librarian in Harford County, which is about an hour north of where I live. I'm going to send in an application and a resume next week. (Pet Peeve: PDF forms that cannot be filed out online. BLURGH!)

They say they will "consider" applications from people who are within 6 months of getting their MLS. And I am right on that line.

But who knows what will happen! If anything, this will give me a chance to brush up on my interviewee skills. Had to dust off my resume and cover letter and update them with all my latest adventures. I love where I work but this place looks sorta cool too. Ya gotta grab these things when you can, ya know?

I think you have a lot to offer. If I remember correctly, Harford's doing some really interesting things in the teen librarian realm, and you know we'll just never have that.

Yeah, I know they are heavily involved in Great Books (Amy just went to the Bel Air branch for a meeting and says it was gorgeous). We will see what happens. I'm trying to stay calm. Don't want to count my eggs before they hatch, ya know?
