The fallback plan

The fallback plan at this point is to spend next year in China either teaching or studying (given my financial situation, it looks like teaching) while I am researching the next China book and then, if nothing else develops, go to school the following fall, probably in Arizona, for the MSW. I have to say, it doesn't exactly thrill me. But I need to have something I can tell myself. (These days I more and more tell myself I should have taken the option which had me going to grad school while working. Oh well.)
