Change in all things is sweet (once you stop freaking out)

The last two weeks has been a whirlwind. I sometimes imagine it is not real.

Here's what's happened:
  • I turned 28.
  • I went to a casino for the first time.
  • I attended a wedding.
  • I got a teaching job.
  • I found a new apartment in Chicago.
  • I hired movers (see first bullet).
I realize I love and need change in my life, but this is even a little much for me. Luckily I have reading and family to keep me sane and oh so humble in the face of so much happiness.


"Man's yesterday may ne'er be like his morrow;
Nought may endure but mutability."

  1. This is SO weird. I was walking home from work one day about a week ago and I suddenly though "Claire got a teaching job." I KNEW IT!!! Congratulations!!

    I'm glad you're posting again too, I missed you! (We have to post about Drood!!)

    Movers - I pack my own stuff, but I NEVER move it. I like strong men with trucks.

    This reminds me of my 2008 - had surgery, moved away from Vancouver and got married. Too much!
