I will begin teaching at the University of Denver in a couple of weeks. I went down to get an introduction to the school and to figure out where I am going. In all the years I have been prostituting myself as an educator within the University system (11 years) this will be the first time I will commute to Denver. Part of me is excited to be in a new teaching environment with new people to work with and then the other part of me is weary of having to commute 3 hours round trip using public transportation to yet another location to make an even smaller paycheck. AND THEN I remind myself that I have a job, my house is not in foreclosure, and so far I am able to pay all my bills...life is good!
