It's December???

How on earth did December get here so fast?!

Here's the short version of the past month:
Got permission to leave California and do my thesis long-distance.
Ran myself ragged selling furniture, calling utilities companies, cleaning apartment, and eating everything edible.
Rushed around SoCal seeing everything I hadn't seen already.
Lidia (my little sister) arrives by plane, packs up my car with my possessions.
We drive cross-country.
Arrive in Florida, exhausted and sick of each other.
Sleep for three days, although on the second day there is Thanksgiving, so I stay awake for that. (Mostly...)
Apply for seven jobs in one evening.
Get a job three days later.  (Just like that, after six months of utter frustration in Long Beach!)
Get a gym membership.  (Finally!)
Resume working on thesis.

I haven't even edited the roadtrip pictures yet, but they will be posted, along with a synopsis.  I meant to blog from the road, but all the driving, the internet fiascoes, and a particularly difficult Sims Social quest drove it out of reach.

More later!
