So, it’s been a while and you’ve only had cute animals for inspiration to keep you going. Well, from my end, the lack of posting is for good reason - as most of you know, I have moved to Boston to start a post-doctoral fellowship at MIT. I’m two weeks into my work now and things are going OK so far - it’s kind of overwhelming to be in a lab which is bigger than the entire DEPARTMENT I worked in at McMaster, but things are starting to come together. Boston is also a pretty nice place to live, although I’ve been shocked at how many pointless bureaucratic hoops one must jump through in order to be a “legal alien” here. I’m still in church-shopping mode at the moment, but there are a couple of decent possibilities so far even in what my new insurance agent generously dubbed “the people’s republic of Cambridge” (the suburb of Boston where I live - it’s a REALLY liberal city!). I’m actually off to a service right now at one of the bigger churches around located right downtown in the Boston Common, which is probably where I’ll end up. They have a “people in their 20’s” fellowship group which is kind of like oXyGEN on steroids - 400 people in small groups within that demographic alone! Pretty wild!
So, seeing as I am not even in the same country, I thought it might be slightly odd to keep posting on this blog. As a result, I started my own blog at:
So, (cue shameless self-promotion), feel free to stop by and check it out if you are so inclined. I’ve made quite a few posts already, so if you read bottom-to-top it will probably make a (little bit) more sense. I miss you all!
