Job stuff update: I started a new position at Northbrook Public Library joining their Adult Services team towards the end of February. There are so many benefits to this move, most imperatively: my preference to interact with mature humans (because children, while often cute and fun as heck in doses, exhaust me), and my disinclination for shifting inside a makerspace. That may come as a surprise, considering I identify as an artist. The bottom line is that I wish I could be part of an adult artists' studio co-op, not an all-ages public library makerspace. Fundamentally different spaces. About two months in and I'm enjoying the new staff, experiences, and patrons :)
