at the risk of jinxing myself

I find myself in a position that I hate being in… looking for a job. My term contract at Critical Mass is, as of now, ending on July 18. Can’t believe it’s been nearly a year already. Working at CM has been the best job that I’ve ever had, hands down, but due to a few major clients either scaling back their work with us or pulling the chute outright, it’s a bit of a “transition” season at the office right now.

Although I’ve been told that they have every intention of keeping me, the reality is that on June 18 I may very well be out of a job. Until I’ve got a signed piece of paper in my hand, I’m operating under that assumption, and preparing for it as I should.

I absolutely want to stay at CM, but I’m also fully aware that the reality is that I may not be able to. In the interests of wanting to be able to continue eating and keeping my lights on (and my LotRO subscription in good standing) I’m hedging my bets and starting to blanket my resume/portfolio around.

Actually, I’m still in the process of rebuilding and updating my circa-2005 website, which all things working out as they should, will likely be finished and online in, um, about 2 hours from now. *crosses fingers*

I hate job-hunting.
