katharosMy Life in the past two months:
Two weeks in Kalami, Corfu. If there is paradise on earth, its here, although it was getting worryingly biblical at times. Left the floods behind in England, got the fires in Greece. I was watching worriedly for the plague of locusts, and wondering if they planned on infiltrating in the guise of Cicadas. No actual fires in Corfu, thank goodness, although everyone was worried - it almost made us feel guilty for how completly de-stressed we were.
Of course, then I got home to learn that 1) I hadn't got my funding for my MA. 2) The job I thought I'd got till the end of the summer had replaced me with a permanent person. So yes, been running around like a chicken with a head chopped off, trying to scrounge up a couple of weeks temp work and pin down work for term time and christmas. Am tired. Also broke.
Meh. *flaps hands*
In other news, sister and I are making a go of Risings Stars of Manga - once again starting something far too late to have it actually done on time. But! At least there is actually a faint possibility this might actually get done, if late, unlike the Neverending Manga. (One year, two months of plotting and still counting.)
So, yeah, beginning to slow down a bit from frantic 'Must Fix Life NOW' mode and beginning to look around and remember hey, there is stuff that I actually like to do out there! Posted one drabble. Fingers itching to write more. I think I might actually have been proactive enough to let them without guilt. Yay!
