For those of you that don’t know — and I’m sure most of you do — all the house stuff is chugging along as planned. We’ve signed a contract with the closing date of March 28th and are working toward settling the financing and finding a subleaser. If you’re interested, pop over here and have a look at some pictures I took of our potential new home.
I say ‘potential’ cause any-bloody-thing can happen until the closing process is over and done with, and I don’t want to get too shattered if a cow falls out of the sky and totals Steven’s car . . . or something similarly unexpected. So, Operation Potential House House is off and running.

Work — oh, how nice it is to say that! — is going rather well. Next week is advising week and then I shall be busy, but I’m looking forward to it. Being bored is not fun. I’m still getting used to the fact that my former professors are now my co-workers. It is just plain bizarre. Cool, but bizarre, bizarre, bizarre.

Now let’s briefly draw attention to the coolness of the word ‘bizarre.’ It looks original and has an excellent sound, what with the buzzing and all. Fabulous word.

And before I go to Birmingham for the weekend, I leave you with this thought: “Happiness is an income tax return deposited into your bank account.”
Not that I speak from experience or anything.
It’s been a long week.
