well, for the most part, i'm done with work until after the holidays. quite a stressful time, but i suppose this time of year always is. i've been more and more dissatisfied with my work environment and i'm beginning to seriously consider a change.
the only problem is, the market is awful right now. american foreign and domestic policies are... well, disturbing. i just feel like less and less at ease with where i am in life and in the world.
my thoughts have taken me back to japan, which was a teenage obsession of mine. seems more and more feasible. i've read a bit about it, talked to some americans in japan and native japanese people online, and have searched for jobs in the country. surprisingly, there were a few posts for exactly the kind of work i'm interested and skilled in.
so what to do? who knows... bide my time and save some cash. research japan and perhaps a new industry to migrate to.
in the meantime, laurie's visiting nyc with her husband. i won't get to meet her which will be twice our paths have unsuccessfully crossed. it's a shame, really.
jenelle, dave and i had middle eastern food for dinner and i'll be packing for our trip back to rochester shortly. i've tried to meet interesting people from rochester online with little success... i'll give it some more time. maybe i'll find a way to have fun on my vacation.
