No strike for me :)

Update

Hey everyone. I haven't posted in a while as life has been...a bit too exciting.
Life seems to be returning to normal somewhat. We've moved and will be sorting through all our stuff...where did we get so much stuff?!?!?!...for the next month or 2, but we have so much more space now. It's a fantastic place! Also much more convenient to work.

Work is going well. I'm loving it, so I hope they're liking me too.

The nurse is no longer coming for PI. He just has to go see if he needs surgery now.

Whale Watching!

Well, we're back from IFLA and our anniversary vacation. We had a great time in Quebec City, an amazing and scenic drive along the coast and, the highlight, whale watching! The second 2 pictures are a family of Fin whales - a baby, mother, and another adult. They got about 10 ft. from the boat! We also saw some humpbacks, minki, and grey seals.

Exciting Summer!

I've now had a month at my job and am loving it :) The staff is great, I'm doing what I want to be doing, it's lots of fun, etc. Last week was a bit silly, but I had a nice break this weekend w/ the long weekend and next week is IFLA, so I should be fine for a while!

Went to the same awesome concert as PM and MT.

PI and I signed a lease on Sat, so we'll be getting around to moving in the near future. That should be fun :P We'll have much more space and it's PERFECT for getting to work.

E, T, e, and A were here from BC last week and we had a good time celebrating mom's birthday as well as Mrs. H's 90th! We also went for dinner, played w/ e, etc. and generally caught up.

J and J are here from Aus and we went to the zoo today! PI and I showed J2 around the city a bit yesterday and had some fun. We also went geo-cashing yesterday, which was fun. We'd never done that before.

REALLY looking fwd to N&D's wedding on Fri!!!

Generally, life is exciting...but then, it always is!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANADA!!!

Happy Canada Day everyone :D
Anyone doing anything exciting...other than sleeping?!

PI and I went to K. for the weekend. Had a great time :) Saw The Complete Works of Shakespeare Abridged which was fantastic except for the part where I got pulled up on stage and had to run back and forth as Ophelia's Id.

Today we're going to go see a movie, relax, have a picnic, and see the fireworks at WL, which I've never done before.

Also, now that I've had a full week at my new job, I think things are going well. Yesterday was a bit insanely busy, but it made the roving bit easy :)

Convocated and Employed!!!

Well, yesterday was convocation and I'm officially done and have my pretty piece of paper!
I also got offered a job this week!

Conferences

Well, 'tis the season of conferences :) Now that OSCC is over I'm proceeding on to library conferences!

I've already been to help out with Forest of Reading, which was great. I'd love to be a bit more active in that next year.

Next is Book Expo. I'm really looking forward to this one in particular, since the majority of what I do at the moment is try to keep up with what's being published and what's popular. Really, let's face it, I just love books and it promises to be an exciting couple of days.

Then One Big Library Conference later in June. I don't really know what to expect from this one, but I love conferences and I always learn something, so I'm going to that one too.

Last, but not least...unless I sign up for something else...ILFA!!! There was no way I was going to miss out on this when it was so close. It's usually on the other side of the world.

Since the rest of my life generally consists of reading and job hunting, it's not very exciting...though we had an alien fruit picnic last week that was great fun, and courtesy of wedding money from my Grandmother, we got an awesome tent :)
