I Know Where I Stand

Today I got my official rejection from Stanford University for a postdoctoral fellowship. I say 'offical' because I've been expecting it for a while. I think at this point it can be safely said that Stanford has completely and utterly rejected me. As of today, I've been turned down by them for three postdoctoral posts, an administrative position that facilitated their Humanities postdoctoral program, two library postions, and a Sports Media job that I once accidentally applied for through their website.

Palo Alto may or may not be the city of the future, but definitely not mine.
