quick update

Computer network on base have blocked all personal pages and Facebook, so we actually have to do work in the office this summer...

Last night was the Staff BBQ, and I received my 3 year Mug for staffing this camp. Pretty thrilled about that. It's engraved with the camp crest and my name and everything.

Had a nerve-wrecking morning of call day for Toronto interviews on Friday, that it's all good. Got a bunch of interviews, including my top choice, so I'll be heading home from camp early to do those. My friends here gave me a cake and went out to celebrate with me that night. It was excellent.

The Ex here is being really, really difficult. I feel sorry for him, but I also feel sorry for me for being stuck in this situation. Not really something I can blog about. Call for full details.

ETA in Toronto Aug 11th. Because I'm taking off early, I'll probably just not that my annual leave days here. Been a pretty good summer so far. Fitting if it is to be my last.

learning to be happy

It's hard to be content, when you know you can be so much more. But life is not perfect, of course, so we have to take the good with the bad. Seems like my job is going to be awesome, but can't count on anything exciting happening on the relationship front. Which is probably a good thing. I know they say you should take time for yourself, enjoy being single, etc, etc. But how many people actually forgo a chance at butterfly-in-tummy bliss for normal? I should not complain; I am among many friends here. So what if we don't talk? Is it really a big deal to not acknowledge a tumultuous affair that lasted far longer than it should have? One that ended on an October day two years ago? We have put each other through hell, there is no reason to destroy each other again for the possibility of a smattering of good days. We had our chance. There is no going back.
