Quite Blessed

ceitfiannaAfter I wrote my last journal entry on Monday night, things started to slowly get better. Since ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dynastessa and I have been playing Tom and Jane from Becoming Jane, we've been plotting how to give them a happy ending. I started to write a possible what happens next fic and its at 1299 words and I had more ideas when I was walking to campus. One thing that's helped with getting this going is reading Georgette Heyer's The Corinthian and I'm going to be happily reading her books for years. The characters are charming, the details are perfect and the plots make me giggle. I think I might for fun toss Penelope Creed into Mixed Muses at some point if I can find the right PB as she's an utter pleasure. I quite understand why Richard Wyndham fell in love with her.
Yesterday was quiet, I went grocery shopping but chose to walk to the local health food place instead of driving and so I have fresh peas and more chickpeas with which to make glorious summer dishes. The best part of yesterday was the Milliways' love meme and I feel truly, incredibly blessed by Milliways, because it introduced me to so many of you amazing people that are my friends. Thank you and I'm lucky to have you in my life, which I can never say enough.
Today started a little rough as I introduced my ipod to my new computer, I'm going to email Apple about it since they helped before. Its rather silly, when my brother years ago gave me a big gift certificate to iTunes, I used my aim screenname for it but when I purchased an iPod, I created an Apple id. My music is divided between the two and my ipod and computer are confused as the iPod used to belong to a PC and so while some of my music is on my computer, most of it isn't and my playlists aren't there. I'll be able to make it work out, but it made me grumpy. Once I've got it set then I'll do the awesome music meme. I need access to my A Bit of Everything playlist for it.
Oh and I haven't heard anything from the guy at North Quad, which is making me antsy. I sent it him a completely casual email about wanting to talk again and maybe have coffee on Monday, nothing as yet. Its bothersome and is starting to make me get all doubtful and nervous.
Good news is that I just received an email from the University of Victoria that says: Your BAHONS degree was granted at the 27 June University Council meeting and the degree certificate were sent out to you by courier yesterday.
Now to start the next step of job hunting and working on my grant writing as I have the next week fairly open thanks to the semester break and holiday.
