Day 37: I See The Light

First of all, I'd like to point out that my blog yesterday bored the crap out of me. Somedays I really have nothing so I'm going to apologize in advance now. Today, however, is a fantastic day. The perfect day. The sun is shining, the ice is melting. I'm just so happy that the earth moved a couple of inches this year. Edmonton was seemingly close to another ice age. I mean, -56C? Nunavut and NWT had better weather in December. So according to the news, the Chilean earthquake knocked the earth a couple of inches. I guess they are still using the Imperial measurement system. Strange, nobody uses Imperial anymore unless they're measuring out shots of vodka. So do you know what this could mean? I'm so excited - beach resorts in Tuktoyaktuk. After the floods, of course. The massively destructive floods. A tad worrisome that part but on the bright side, Australia is cheap right now...

Job-wise, the light is even brighter, "Your application has been referred to the hiring organization for a more in-depth review". Record time. I should write a book, "How to Take Over the World in 60 Days". Very suiting, I think. I can do it. Taking over the world would be much more fun holding a bottle of tequila, though. And yodeling. I've always wanted to learn how to yodel. AND MORE! I've got the UI office tentatively covering some writing courses at U of A for me which will ultimately make my writing better or worse. Hit or miss, really. Can't wait! The only downside of all this, this potential getting a federal job and going to school for something that won't make watching mould grow on bacon the most exciting part of my day, is I'm stuck in Edmonton for about another year. No Vancouver. No Toronto. No Calgary. No Mongolia. Just Edmonton. A year. A whole year or more. Bleh. HOWEVER, the sky is the limit after that, and I think I'm going to make the sky Amsterdam.

Long live unemployment insurance!
