Housing Update

It's been a while since my last post, but things have been a little hectic. Work has picked up for me (finally) so hopefully I won't be sitting around on my rear for a while. I've never felt so useless as when you're not doing anything at all. I think doing a job you hate is still better than being bored.

As for the house hunt, Marie has decided that the house I mentioned a few weeks ago isn't for us. It's sad, but it's life. So now we're looking for something else, but so far the going is tough. I was really looking forward to moving, but I think it might have just been to add the excitement to my life that I'm missing in my job.

As for my admission into the Philosophy and History of Religion Master's program at Concordia, I heard today that they now have enough information to make a decision on my application. This is good news in that I've finally jumped through the right hoops, but I still feel like I'm damned in either case. If I don't get accepted I'll lose all hope that I can do something with my life that I actually enjoy, and if I do get accepted I'll be forced to decide how important it is to me and whether or not staying employed in a crappy job in order to pay the bills is better than doing what I really want to do.... something that would be fulfilling, not just filling, if you know what I mean.

So that's the story for the time being. I'm looking forward to being pretty busy for the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately, both of the projects I'm scheduled for are likely to be postponed. Yippie! Two more weeks of sitting around on my ass wasting my life!
