networking gone awry

as i have mentioned, dominique and i recently moved to a new city together. i didn't go to this city with a job lined up, so part of my job now is networking. i've been on a number of interviews and have just talked to other businesspeople in general, but another way i network is on the golf course. i don't have a golfing buddy here yet, so i usually golf alone, which i don't mind at all. in fact, i rather like it most times. and quite often i end up playing with businesspeople of one sort or another. like today.

i played a pretty bad front 9 today, and at the turn there was a foursome on the 10th tee moving rather slowly who didn't let me play through at that point. as i was waiting, a guy named bill sauntered up so we decided to play the back 9 together. after pretty much imploding on the 10th hole, i played very well from 11-18 which was nice. bill and i chatted here and there as we went. he was a pretty nice guy. he must've really enjoyed the round with me, however, because after the 18th he gave me his business card. i was interested, since i'm always looking for new opportunities. i took it, thanked him, and glanced down to see this. maybe i have a future in dance?

what kinds of jobs are you applying for/considering, if you don't mind my asking? the reason i'm asking is that i am looking for a new job too, one that does not involve the law. (at least one that doesn't require that i actually practice law). so i'm curious what kinds of non-law jobs someone else who went to law school is considering doing, to give me some more ideas myself.

i'm mainly interested in hr jobs. i'm sure there's a variety of things one can do, but that's been my focus.
