Surprised to see me? Well, I'm surprised to be writing. The new job is crazy and I literally haven't had a chance to write since I started. I spend approximately 12-13 hours working everyday...and hell, I'm a teacher. That's criminal. However, I'm bunking-off (cutting/skipping/playing hooky/pulling a sick-y) today, so I've got time to play catch-up on my life...and blog. So much has occured over the past few months, that I'm just going to make a brief list.
Here are some keywords, ponderings, and photos to describe my last 100 days:

Some of that was pretty hard to follow, but it sounds like times are hard, BUT it sounds like you're keeping a positive outlook, which I respect massively.
I clicked on the link to the Petchey Academy and was shocked by the immediate and overwhelming sense of disappointment. The disappointment then quickly faded to mild embarrassment at the realization that I, a man of 27 and high education, truly did expect Petchey Academy to be the real life Hogwarts. Was this just me?
Hammy, I miss you and hope all is well. We need to catch up!!!!
wow, nov to march - I thought I was the most negligent blogger. Thank goodness for pictures because I'm definetly not hip or young enough to understand. For those of us who are older, could you please post a translation? lol
so this still leave me with the question, where will you be in say 6 months time? :)
Sounds like its been a little rough patch, but hey...thats what makes life interesting when looking back isnt it?
Miss You!
missy: haha. i love you all. i will post a translation soon. maybe right now even.
andrew: thanks. ps: there is a book i just finished that you need to read--Don Emmanuel's Nether Parts. I know you loved Captain Correllis Mandolin...
James: Do you want to move back to NY with me after post doc? I miss you too. For serious.
Hannah: When are you back in Europe. I've met an aussie bloke...
