Frequent commenter Karen has an important new job with major responsibility and is simply amazed at herself:
“Me. The goofball from New Mexico. The kid who, once upon a time, had to be taken to the doctor because I got a piñon nut stuck up my nose.”
I suppose this means I can never be president…….
If you can get elected president even after writing about putting a certain white substance up your nose, I don’t see why a piñon nut would be disqualifying.
Congrats, Karen. I just accepted a similar job offer yesterday (after 6.5 months of unemployment), and I’m still in a quasi-dreamlike state over it.
Congrats Hugh! In these crazy economic times, getting a job is a BIG deal. I was scared to make the jump, but so far so good!
Congratulations indeed to you both.
Now that you are big successes, please don’t forget about us.
It is a big deal, especially in these times as another long-time NMK reader tells us.
I cracked up at the pinon up the nose comment.
This makes three of us in new jobs. I wonder if Hugh and I should tell about the things we may, or may not have, stuck up our noses…

I got a mesquite bean stuck in my ear when I was a kid, but I only want to be Secretary of State some day.
