Almost there (but now unsure of where "there" is)

On Wednesday it will be one month since I have blogged. As planned, I did get all of the work of applying for TEN (what happened to the two or three?) jobs done--well, almost done, one more document to compose and three more application packages to stick in the mail. As not planned, all manner of ridiculous craziness has occurred. I have come to the conclusion that I get into trouble when I do not blog. What did last year's blog disappearing act spell? T-R-O-U-B-L-E. With a capital T and a capital ROUBLE. Actually, I do not know which came first last year, the trouble or the not blogging. I do know that one or more of the following has happened in the mere month that I have been away from the blog this time. Guess which and offer your congratulations or sympathies on any.

1. I became romantically (and that may or may not be a quaint way of putting it) involved with a fellow employee, making things incredibly awkward at work.

2. I became romantically involved with a second fellow employee, making things even more incredibly awkward at work.

3. I spent some time in jail.

4. I was informed by The Grand He, apropos of nothing, that he and the woman he left me for are getting married.

5. I was notified of a publication!

6. Worlds and other objects collided.

Welcome home, me!

I have often complained here about having moved so much as a kid that I have no sense of any one place to call home. But now, thanks to Luckybuzz and the magic of the internets, I have found my hometown (or at least my home state). If I were not so thrilled by that aspect, I might--like Luckybuzz--not know exactly how to feel about the designation. For now, though, it's mad wicked pissa.

Dude! You're 100% from Massachusetts!

Dude! Me and Sully and Fitzie and Sean are gonna hit Landsdowne tonight after the game, hang out at the Beerworks. I'll pick you up at the Coop at 6.

How Massachusetts are you?
