I heard from one recruiter and one client today, both bearing good news.

Yesterday, I Had a phone interview with the ower of a small computer company. He has a client that wants to convert their website from Perl to PHP and MySQL. It's a part-time gig -- initially about 15 hours a month. I've known him for several years, and the interview was a chance to reconnect with him. Today, I heard from the recruiter, indicating they would like me to start soon.

Meanwhile, I talked to another client, a local power utility. They're using Access 2007 and getting a run-time error when they try to delete records. (No, it is NOT the cause of the current power outage!) He said he'd talk to the recruiter, who hasn't gotten back to me yet. They'd like for me to start on Monday. This is a short-term gig; I expect no more than a week to fix this.

Neither are full-time as of yet, but it's something.

Good news Jim. I hope something more comes your way - from these or elsewhere.
