I ended up doing my resume in AbiWord. I also did it in LaTeX, using a different model. I need to spend some more time on it… (Right now finals take precedence, however.)
I’ve decided to put together a page on Linux fonts, describing how to install them and use them and create them. After my harrowing experience trying to add fonts to AbiWord and TeX (and failing in both cases), I’m really feeling the need for an accurate guide to the process. It’ll have more than just that, though — I want to include notes on typography (both on the letterforms themselves and on good design rules for using type) and examples and such. Probably won’t be able to do much on it till after finals, however.
My mouth is almost entirely recovered from the wisdom teeth extractions, thank heavens.
I applied to a few different places for work for the summer. One of the jobs was already taken, though. I’m not too worried yet. And it’s not the end of the world if I can’t find anything before I leave on my mission.
