working hard

I’ve been in a strange zen-like state that I call busy…yet not-busy. I’m working part-time for the old job, which is neat because I get to keep my health benefits and make a little money while I’m job searching. It’s also neat because I do as much or as little as I want. I’ve only been doing an hour or two a day, because I’m enjoying my time off so much. Once a day I try to get a least one thing put away properly. Everything’s been unpacked for a while now, but some of it we just threw in a corner till it could be properly organized. Once a week I make myself go out and do something productive to get myself on the way towards being an Austin resident. Two weeks ago Dane and I got library cards, last week it was the emissions inspection for the car, and this week I plan to get to the tax office to pay for my tags and registration. Next week I’ll make the dreaded trip to the DMV for my license.

That’s the busy portion of my days. The not-busy involves me consuming as much media as possible. I’ve already watched all current episodes of Rome, and have started burning through the Netflix queue. I’m catching up on my reading, and my gaming. It’s glorious.

Oh, I promised pictures. Well, I regret that I don’t have any of the city yet, but here’s one of my office:

And here’s my current office neighbor:

Oh yeah, I’m working so hard.

  3. We’ve been below freezing for the past couple of weeks. All sets of windows up. Dreading the snow dump here soon. I know it’s coming.

  4. Wouldn’t it follow that your next entry should be titled “hardly working”? Just a thought.
