I got back in touch with my former boss by email, asking her for a reference for another job. I didn't get the other job, but to my surprise the old boss called me and has given me a shot at doing some relief teaching, and if it goes well I might end up with more solid work.
I am really happy in one way, but in another sense very nervous. It's high school teaching, and I haven't taught for ages. And already I am thinking shit like "how am I going to cope if (as sometimes happens) I have no Dex?"
Also, in my initial email I lied to her and said I had a car. I have no car. She's the sort to notice such things and I can't imagine what to say that won't sound bullshitty ...
But overall it is good news ... thought I'd share! Sorry if seems show-offy. Don't have many people to show off to, tbh
