I HAVE A JOB! :D
For the summer, anyway. It's called MAPS, which stands for Monitoring Avian Populations Survey. Starting on May 1 I will vanish to Grant's Pass, Oregon, for a training session, and then until August 8 I'll be in some section of national forest in Washington or Oregon, catching and banding birds every morning from 5 am to noon. Unlike before, I'll (probably) have internet access semi-regularly, since I'll actually have days off (gasp!). So you might see me once or twice a week, or more? Hard for me to say, at this point.
Still waiting on the feds to approve my falconry license, which is so aggravating. At this point I doubt I'll have it before the end of trapping season (Saturday), so if it comes to be Saturday and I still have no license, I'm calling my sponsor to see what he thinks of me asking rehab places if they'll let me have one of their kestrels. It's worth a shot, anyway.
Finally, my wat moment of the day - I was reading an ongoing, regularly-updating fic, which has an entertaining story even if I disagree with their characterization choices sometimes. I realized there was something truly off about the writing when I realized that Shadow had more in-fic chemistry with random npc Mexican restaurant waitress in that one scene than he does with Sonic in the entire rest of the fic. Good job, authors. Good job.
