In the last year, there has been a flurry of engagements and weddings in my wider social circle, with two engagements this week alone.
Holy crap, time flies.

Early spring is always a pensive time of intense brooding and distraction for me. I’m exactly where I was two years ago, emotionally and professionally. I’m waiting for that life-changing email, that crucial phone call, waiting to find out if the summer will mark the beginning of a new chapter abroad, and making all kinds of contingency plans stateside.
Please, NGOs in Afghanistan, just effin’ hire me already.
I’m a hard worker, a quick study, much tougher than I look and –bonus!– the idea of living in a guesthouse excites rather than bothers me.
Come ON already!
