Back to Square One

I skipped two days (three if you count Monday) if you didn't notice. This is pretty typical of me--I just got very very afraid of applying for jobs and decided to find other things to do instead. Mostly playing Diablo II.

I'm still not ready to apply but each passing day means fewer opportunities. So I have to force myself to do it. Or something.

I think what I need to remember most is that it's okay to take things one step at a time.

Take for instance, emailing Professor A back. I could do that right now.

But what should I say?

Here are the things I need to do, in no particular order:
1. Thank him. What am I thankful for? His concern about me, his offer to help.
2. Ask about the person who is about to start her 3rd year at Mary Baldwin. She's a PEG? If she needs anything, she can talk to me. I don't know what I have to offer though.
3. Ask him if he can get me in touch with someone. Who? He says people who are doing or teaching law. What do I want to get out of meeting with someone?
4. Tell him how I'm doing. I don't want to complain. What should I send as my message instead? How close to the truth should it be?
