Hehe, this is so my life. The things is, some of us plan for the annoying contingency of being adjunct faculty. Maybe it is the fine arts in my background which trains me to consider *how* I can do what I love even if it is really not practical. Or possibly that I went back to college planning on pursuing a career that I already knew would be nearly impossible. I have pretty much decided that I need to get my MFA along with my Ph.D. in Art History so that I can have a better chance at teaching in a combined department or get more adjunct faculty positions... Yes, being a starving artist is a horrible fall-back career plan, I know... I would say that the key to success in these ventures is having a husband who is a software engineer. :-)
