CW is definitely not interviewing me at this point, I think. Ah well. I wonder if this current spate of curatorial jobs in fashion/textiles is a bizarre blip or if it reflects the museum field opening up and hiring more people ... or I guess maybe it reflects one fashion/textiles person getting a new job, and then their old job opens up, and then the old job of the person who gets hired for that one opens up, and so on. Looking forward to seeing who gets this one so I can compare myself to them and get depressed. (I was being defeatist at Sarah over how I thought being in collections for so long made people disqualify me for curatorial jobs and she was disagreeing with me because of people she knows who've made the jump, which I think was her being positive and supportive but unfortunately also implies that I just suck on an individual level and that's why I don't get interviews for these positions.)

I'm trying to finish my novel and I was making great strides - wrote several more chapters - until I decided to let myself have a little break and write some porn. And now I'm like "well I could write my one self-insert self-actualizing and thinking about stuff while locked in a room by the villain or I could write my other self-insert getting railed in a foursome," which is an unfortunately easy choice. (At least it is now! It's crazy when I think about how much more comfortable I've gotten with writing explicit sex over the past year.)
