State of My Life
Ah dear LJ. How little I post to you.
Thought I should write something about how things are going, seeing as I rarely see most of you. It's mostly pretty boring, so I'll keep it short. And bullet-pointed.
* work. I'm now working with The Canada School of Public Service, as an ED-LAT 1. What this means is that I have the exact same job as before, only now with the government, instead of being self-employeed. As well, I went term at the beginning of this week.
* work2. While I work with CSPS, I'm working in departments, not at Asticou. So I'm at Sport Canada (a branch of Heritage Canada) and at INAC (Indian and Northern Affairs.) Both are at Terraces de la Chaudiere. Or however that's spelled.
* trivia. Still hosting trivia Sunday nights at the Oak. Doing pretty good, I get a lot of good feedback, people think I'm funny, and they keep coming back. Average crowd is about 40.
* romance. I have a boyfriend. He's a Leafs fan, though. I'm trying to change that.
* travel. Went to Peru in August for three weeks. Photos on flickr, under anya_at_large. Climbed a mountain (hit 4758 metres above sea level.), saw Manchu Picchu, went paragliding in Lima, ate a guinea pig. (tasted really salty.)
* travel2. Hoping to join a climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro for this upcoming July.
* awesomeness. Will carry the Olympic Torch on Dec. 12. Totally psyched. Was really worried that the pants would be too long, and I would trip. Turns out pants are fine - but the jacket arms are loooooong. So don't have to worry about tripping, just setting myself on fire and being a human torch.
* family. Family is good, and will be getting bigger at the end of January. My sister is preggers.
* friends. Have met lots of great people over the year, both here and abroad. I'm lucky to know some awesome people, including those at Coles St. Laurant, where I'm temping for the holidays.
And that's pretty much it. I'll now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
