These days

I was working on the top of a roof with my dad when my phone rang. After a couple of days of waiting in limbo to hear if I even had a new assignment, it was finally the PC, wanting to talk about (2) new options. After going over them for just a few minutes on the phone our conversation ended, and now another decision needs to be made. I won't go over the details, but with either choice I'll still be in Pflugerville/Austin for the next 4 months. At least I have options again; two days of standing still is more difficult than months of waiting. So it's back to unpacking, making a room that I think is both mine and my sister's feel like a decent bedroom, and getting a job. The last few months haven't been a complete waste though. In fact, most of it has been pretty great. Here are a few pictures since Christmas...

And finally...

I'll finish up making my decision about the Peace Corps and accept one of the invitations tomorrow. Just a hint though: I'm pretty sure the name of the place I'll be going rhymes with Burkina Blaso. Other than that, the weather has been beautiful this weekend, and makes a nice accompaniment to some Beach Boys. Now if I could find something emollient for my sunburn...
