Life has been, to say the least, chaotic. The only thing standing between me and submitting my Ph.D. on 30 March is one last appointment at the Borthwick. After Thursday, I'll have fully re-checked my transcription of the manuscript, and pending any last comments on Chapters 2 and 3 from my supervisors, we're good to go.
My youngest sister, Alyce, came to visit from 7-12 March. We spent a good amount of that time (three days) in London, during which stay we discovered the joys of Camden Market for the first time. Now, I've been traveling to London regularly for five years now, and how I ever failed to spend any real amount in Camden prior to now, I have no clue. Suffice it to say that I think Yumchaa is a little slice of paradise in an even bigger slice of paradise. THEY SELL A BLACK TEA CALLED SOHO SPICE. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE, PEOPLE? ORANGE PEEL AND FLORALS!
Anyway, I'm back to my kick-about, bohemian unemployed ways, although I had an interview for a maternity cover post at the Royal Armouries (yes, right next door, where my husband works) a little over a week ago and am waiting to hear back from them.
Also: Healthcare Reform! It's what's for breakfast. TASTES SO GOOD WITH TEA.
And that's always awesome. :)
