Well, ok. By "popular demand" I really mean about three people. But I'd been intending to blog anyway. I just hadn't got around to it, ok?
This is going to be one of those boring "here's what's happening in my life" posts. It will be brief.
This has been the Summer of Housesitting. I travelled to the States for a week and a half in the beginning of July to take care of my parents' house, the dog, and the cat while Mom and Dad went on a well-deserved 30th wedding anniversary jaunt. I wasn't back long before friends of mine in Toronto asked me to housesit for them while they went to England. It was spectacularly refreshing to have a house to myself for nearly three weeks, not to mention a cat and an iguana. It was spectacularly stressful to be in charge of hosting the after-church gatherings and weekly homegroups, but it all happened without loss of life, limb, or sanity (just).
And, I'm job-hunting. After a bit of a hiatus while I focused on freelancing I'm launching myself into the employment market again. An interview a few weeks ago was a spectacular failure; another one yesterday went rather well, and I'm glad it happened that way round because the second one seems like a much better fit. I'll hear back from them next week, so here's hoping, but if not, I'll trust it's for the best and keep looking.
I was supposed to go to England in August...but I am not going to England in August.
That's about all...as far as externals go. As far as internals go, there's always a lot going on, but this post isn't about that. I'll try to write something more interesting soon.
