It has been entirely too long since I last put pixel to screen. I apologize. I picked up a one day a week volunteer position at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science as a collections technician for the conchology department assisting them in digitizing their hand-written ledgers into a database. I am meeting new people and networking there, hoping this will lead to a permanent, paying position soon. I have also interviewed at 6 other museums. Two of those interviews are still on-going. Which leads me to one little rant....
If your open position is only full time for three months out of the year and weekends only for the rest of the year, please say so in your advertisement. I wouldn't have wasted your time with my application and writing portfolio if you had. /end rant.
So, besides that, I have been busy with family events and issues, a minor surgery on my part (it's all good now), the 100th anniversary of Titanic's sinking events, illness, beginning writing a book with a friend of mine, and picking up a part time job at a local clothing store that I like for some extra money and the in-store discount for some new casual professional outfits in addition to working my full time sales job. I also attended Starfest, a local "nerd convention", and built my costumes for it. Needless to say, this blog took a back seat. But, I'm back. :)
I'll be posting again soon. Upcoming topics will include fashion in the unique museum workplace, costumed docents, QR codes, and plagiarism. I welcome any requests for topics or discussion.
