Not much to report here, life's getting to be routine. I'm waiting to hear back about a few jobs i've applied for. Admittedly as they are exactly what i want to do i'm not being particularly proactive in looking for other stuff, although i did meet with a very keen recruiter who thought he could get me a job in anything.

What is up however, is that i'm a bit disturbed about earthquakes. I went to go see Bill Bryson do a signing today when i noticed the headline on one of the papers that was for sale outside--it mentioned Earthquakes. Now i find this significant because last night the wall was shaking. I thought i was crazy or maybe it just was a bit burst of wind, but no turns out it was a 4.5 magnatnitude earthquake. When we thought about living here i mentioned earthquakes but kind of as a joke. I've never been thru an earthquake in my life (at least neverwhere it was ever felt or reported). The east coast is a stable place. So's the UK. I guess because i've never been exposed to them or had earthquake drills as a kid i find it scary.

Aside from earthquake fears, as i mentioned, i met Bill Bryson. He was doing some signings here. Now i've been to a few signings before (mostly for Neil Gaiman) but never have i been to one that felt so rushed when there was NO queue. They weren't having him dedicate books (as in "to: lindsay enjoy, bill" kind of thing). That aside i talked to him for a minute. For some reason i imagined him to be a jolly, boisterous man but he seemed rather reserved. Not like it matters, i still love his books.

The weather is just divine here (again, earthquakes aside--sorry when i get fixed on something i'm fixed on it). It's only rained twice and it's just so warm, although it has been a bit humid lately which makes working out in the non-airconditioned or vented gym just unbearable.

We've got a large round of guests floating thru in the next month, Amy, Stu and Em, and another of Matt's friends from uni.

Well that's all for now i guess.
