Long-overdue update

[chicken]

Hello from Florida. Leaving Massachusetts and Rhode Island was difficult, mostly because the movers showed up 7.5 hours late, making me miss saying goodbye to my friends and co-workers, and generally making that entire day a horrible nightmare. Nonetheless, things got better after that (in spite of the bad traffic and weather in Connecticut).

We are settled in our new apartment, the cats are happy (see the Flickr pictures as evidence of this), and I have had three job interviews during the last week.

The weather isn't nearly as hot, humid, or thunderous as people feared/claimed/warned. It's really very lovely, actually, and gas only costs $2.79 a gallon. Of course, auto insurance is way more than in Massachusetts (but there is no automobile property tax, so it balances out).

I have skimmed back over my friends page and will try to read it more regularly from now on. I missed you all.

It looks *gorgeous* at your new apartment! The pets look so happy and alert -- I hope they are enjoying the new place and exploring all of it. So, three interviews! Great! I will keep my fingers crossed that a wonderful job will come your way soon.

Many thanks!

Actually, one of the cats is now sick, which we will post about after we get back from X-Rays today, very worrisome. :-(
