I've been dreading this moment for six years. Applications for post-docs begin to be due on October 1st; for tenure-track jobs, the applications must be in by Nov. 1st or Nov. 15th. Non-tenure-track jobs will be advertised after January. Yikes! But the C.V. is up-to-date, I've drafted my teaching statement, and I'm laboring over my dissertation statement this week. On the outside, it looks like I'll be prepared for producing my individual applications. But on the inside, I look like this:
ALL DAY. EVERY DAY.
ALL DAY. EVERY DAY.

They often say "it's all in your mind." Maybe you can see this as something exciting and fun! :D Or... at least appreciate just how prepared you are :P
