Well, It's been recently brought to my attention that I have been absent for a while. Mea Culpa. I suppose I owe you lovelies a bit of an update. To be honest I've been spending a lot of time on another continent of the verdant blogosphere. It's much less stressful and I don't feel like as much of a tool for posting updates that are basically "Nurr this rapper rulz check out his phat beatz" or "Hurr Derp I'm growing a beeeeerdd" or "OMG MY FRIENDS SUCK AND I AM SAD AND CRYING EYESHADOW TEARS"
So back to the update. Well, I still have a job. The Horror. I've been fighting an epic battle against the Balrog of Bureaucracy, tumbling through the depths of Mount Misinformation wielding only the Sword of Stupidity and the Staff of Shame and relying on my small but loyal Halfling companions to deliver me the Fingerprints of Fighting so I can stay here for another year.
See what I did there?
I got some new friends. Captain Canada, St. Patrick, Okie Dokie, Apartheid Annie, Crazy Eyes and Token Yellow, but they suck at the moment because they appear to be mad at me and won't tell me why and have been subsequently shunned, so I'm on another quest for new friends, which begins tomorrow when I will be thrust into an entirely new group of shambling hominids (no offense people I haven't met yet) to learn their language and attempt to blend into the local culture. I hope they use forks. Or at least chew their food.
I've been looking around for jobs since I am determined to continue with my "International Experience". I am determined to be a "Professor" at a university (9 weeks of vacation, what?)and will call myself "Professor Failsyou". Or something. I'm still working on that.
It's cold, I've been sick, We're all going to die a fiery death by the damn Commies, Christmas might be cool again, I need a vacation.
I think that about covers it.
See You on the Dark Side

You are taking the whole "I might be vaporized in the center of a mushroom cloud" very well, yes.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry your friends are shunning you. I am definitely also guilty of impromptu shunnification at times. But then again, I am afraid of/dislike people.
I'm very sorry also for the shunnery. I hope the friend search goes well! Love the LOTR metaphors. At least you're the wizardy one, and according to the metaphor you'll be remade better and stronger than before, if a tad more mysterious. :)
ReplyDeleteHow did bro-time go? I didn't see a followup on it.
