Home?

Now comes the interesting time of trying to figure out what I actually mean when I say "home." I came back to Waterville this weekend to visit my folks, have dinner with some of my old coworkers, and pick up some of the things that I didn't have room for on my first trip over.

I'm still kind of getting settled in to the new place. I don't think it will really set in for a few weeks still. Even though (almost) all of my stuff is there, it still feels kind of like a vacation. I did get a call from one of the banks I applied at this weekend though; I'm going to call back and leave them a message when I get back to Spokane later today... hopefully that will lead to an interview and a job. I'm getting really tired of unemployment (and keep getting nervous that the state will decide to audit me, find something I accidentally screwed up, and require me to pay back a bunch of money), and I think that having a regular schedule again will make me a much more productive person. I finally put in a bit of work on my guest lecture again last week, but other than that I've just been goofing off, reading a lot, and making my three job searches a week so I can get my whopping $277 from unemployment. Some income is better than none, I guess.
