So in not even an aggressive job search, I've come across two good prospects. One is a science writer for Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab (and before you ask, yes, I actually do know a bit about physics), and the other is a medical writer for ICON. The former could help me get a master's degree from Hopkins, and the latter could get me to Europe as they have offices all over the world. I'm beginning to sound awfully shrewd, aren't I?
I applied for both yesterday, and weirdly, they both use the same job application software, and more weirdly, ICON called me today! Nothing may come of either, and yet that doesn't bother me because at least I've taken an action to change my increasingly intolerable work circumstances, and that always makes me feel better.
Plus, I've met someone who happens to be a cellist, and I've been picking his brain about the best way to learn, and what to play, and any other cello question I can think of.
I'm not inclined to think that any of this is a coincidence, yet it's truly alarming (though not unappreciated) when the Universe responds so quickly to one's requests.
