It's been awhile...

...and so I figured I owe you all a new post. There's been a lot going on in my world; unfortunately, much of it is un-bloggable for various reasons. No, I'm not seriously dating someone (as a friend of mine says she always suspects people of dating when they fall off the face of the earth without warning) and I'm not sick (although I was, for awhile). I'll fill you all in on the past few weeks...okay, month...whatever.

To go in rather backwards order, last night I met Irina! We went out to Makor, about which I'd heard rumors that they were closing, but which we confirmed are absolutely untrue. Their current location is being sold to CUNY, but they are relocating to the area around Houston and Canal, and they're anticipating the move to work strongly in their favor, as the nightlife in the area is much stronger and they'll be able to stay open later than they do now. It was really cool meeting a fellow JBlogger, and we both had a good time. Here's to many more blogger meets! :)

Something else going on in my life right now: Weffriddles. I first heard of them a little over a month ago over on Ezzie's blog, but after getting stuck on Batch 1, Level 4, and finding the forums rather unhelpful, I gave up. Last week, a friend of mine suggested them as a way to alleviate boredom at work (and there's been quite a bit of that, too), but I sort of brushed her off--I thought I'd tried it, and that would be it. Not so. I started doing them again yesterday and I'm hooked. It's a good thing that it's been relatively quiet (bli ayin hara), because otherwise I'd be in biiiiiig trouble for neglecting my work to do these things!

Backlog: Well, as I said before, a lot of it is unbloggable. A lot of frustrating situations which are all too identifiable even if I leave out the details, and so much more. But life goes on, and now things are better, at least for the time being. Baruch Hashem yom yom.
