Camels in the Mist

September 23. It’s that time of year again. Summer ended yesterday in that official sort of way that summers normally end. It marks another year since life took me aside and smacked me upside the head. I’m still hurting from that, i guess, but time lessens the pain. This year, things are starting to stabilize in odd and awesome ways.

Getting my position at the university has allowed me to mellow out and start to focus on other aspects of life. My contract just got renewed for another three months, which seems to be standard practice before hiring on for a permanent position. This keeps money in the bank account, rent paid, and camel happy.

It’s a nice security to have for the next few months, anyway, since tomorrow is moving day. For pretty much the first time, I’m moving by choice than out of necessity. I’ve got a room now with two good friends, which is closer to campus/work and quicker/easier transit, as well as other conveniences. As it happens, taking time to blog right now is a welcome procrastination from the otherwise onerous task of packing.

Also, by some stroke of unmitigated entropy, I now have a girlfriend. This reconfirms my suspicion that the universe is playing tricks on me. Or telling me to get on with my life.

Back to packing.
