Big News

I mentioned a while back that I was in the midst of a Life Changing Decision and no, it wasn’t moving to Canberra.  Yesterday I had an interview for a position teaching English in Japan.  Today I got told that I was successful.  I’m not yet sure when or where I’m going.

I should be excited and really I am.  My heart is filled with joy, it’s just that all the bodily parts around the heart are filled with extreme sleep deprivation.  I’m about to get on a bus for a 3.5 hr trip from Sydney to Canberra.  Hopefully I can nap for most of it.
