Dear Diary: Still not king.

Friday is my last day as a postdoc at IBM Research.

Monday is my first day as a contractor at IBM Research.

Yup, they weren't able to find funding for an actual full time position, but they found funds for a contractor, so... whee?

Ah well, it'll mean I get to keep working with Grady and the other folks I've got momentum with, and it's a paycheck for the interim. :)




In related news... the patent was approved, after five and a half freaking years. ;)

Hurrah for continued employment. Those paycheck things get addictive.

Tell me about it. No matter how many times I try and kick the habit, I get sucked right back in.
