Campus Visit

I had a campus visit scheduled today. It's at the school where I think I have the best chance of actually getting a job offer and where the job description best fits my profile. I am sooooo relieved and happy about this! I don't want to say too much and jinx anything though. I'll be doing a job talk with a paper that I've given twice before and am currently expanding/revising anyway for a book volume. No teaching! More updates may follow once it's over a couple weeks from now, but for the moment I just want to bask in the good vibes that I'm feeling and the wonderful sensation of not feeling anymore that tight constriction that has been around my chest since the MLA list was posted back in September. Thrilled would be an understatement right now!
