She's Alive

That's right, I'm back. After a whirlwind tour of the US, a al last holiday season, I am officially settled in Tucson... if I can find a job that is. :) It'd be awfully tragic if I had to pack up and come back. My overwhelming response to being back is PAPERWORK. It's so hard to get anything done. But what can you do? More hoops, more jumping.

It's still great to be back and it's even better to be in a place that has sunshine. I get to see my little (bigger, older) brother in just a couple weeks which is awesome. I will also get to see Vegas for the first time so I am pumped all the way around.

I think that Tucson might be awesome. Everyone who has spent time here has raved about it and I can see why. We lucked out on being in a good area and I even live blocks from my first ever Trader Joe's. Love. It.

So while I feel pretty stranded because I don't have a job yet. I am optimistic that I will only be flailing in the wind for a couple weeks -- substitute teaching here I come! (Do I have to put tissues up my sleeve and say things like 'whippersnapper?')
