Well… I’m back

posted in Uncategorized |

I am going to write a long entry about my interviews, visiting Iowa and Minnesota and meeting Becka (bjorks_defender)!, but I am road weary and world weary, and just slightly queasy to my stomach. I guess that’s what I get for only eating Starbursts and Goldfish today… Ugh.

Meeting Becka was wonderful, guys! *HUGS Becks* I totally recommend doing it. I think I was a little more subdued than normal, because the interviews did not go exactly well (they didn’t go horribly either–just more of a letdown), so it kinda put me in a little bit of a funk, but she was wonderful and we had some great times. But I shall describe everything in more detail, tomorrow. And hopefully I’ll get it illustrated with pictures!

shirerain and claidheamhmor, I do have some bad news. The program got back to me on how much the tickets to South Africa was going to cost… and it’s more than double what they were willing to cover. And I don’t know if I have the money to fund that much either. I’m trying to do some internet searches, see if I can find it for any cheaper or if there other options. But. I don’t know. It’s all very frustrating, after thinking that things were set in stone.

    *HUGS*

    Aw, it’s okay, hon – if it doesn’t happen now, we’ll just make it some other time. You know we will. And besides, this whole thing happened on very short notice for you.

    Love you,

    Ellie

    Sorry to hear that, but I do understand! We’ll still get to meet you in person sometime!

      Well…. I think I spoke too soon. As always. 😀

      The secretary looked around and found much cheaper flights if I went through Amsterdam. So she booked the flight and I’ll find out the itinerary tomorrow! So I think I’m on my way, and we will obviously have to meet!

      I’ll send you my final itinerary and we’ll have to chat and come up with the best plan for everything. I’m soooo excited.

    • Books read October-December 01/01/2024
      My goal was to read 120 books this year. I just finished number 129. (Some of these I reviewed as part of my WWW posts). October: Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. I had high expectations for this book, as it had been so praised, and I felt let down by it. Still enjoyable, […]
