We're in PA, in a one bedroom apartment in a hotel that looks like it will be home for almost four weeks. It's nice but we're really not sure what it will be like living in a hotel for days and days and days. It is also my last day of not employment, which has dampened my spirits somewhat; the life of leisure has been very, very good and I'll miss it most when it's 10:30 and I'm at work instead of at home on the couch with Ollie and a book.
Today I stumbled onto another subtle reminder that my wife is beautiful: this link. When the photographer who shoots your wedding chooses your bride as one of his highlights, you have it made.
My beautiful wife has it made, too, at William Allen High School in Allentown. A phone call in the car yesterday (she always takes important job-offer phone calls in the car while I'm driving somewhere with bad reception) confirmed that her interview had gone well, as the school extended its first-ever employment offer from a phone interview. She met school administration and a few teachers today, toured the huge campus, and came home excited. We're both really looking forward to a great new start with this school, complete with football and basketball games and plays and band concerts. Go Canaries!
