a good moon rising

well, sometimes when it's all looking dismal, random bits o' good news feel like gifts from the gods.

i got a quiet little email today saying that my teaching license is renewed...

which I thought was impossible, given that i've done my academic work internationally.

but there you go.

the most notoriously difficult, red-taped-laced bureaucratic nonsense organisation on earth has actually made a rational decision for once.

and i get a license until 2012. which i won't use, but that's beside the point.

small miracles grace me today.

that,
and i made potatoes au gratin with green beans for me and bebe and the sun set over the bay with glorious pink-golden light and my life is good.

only 9 days until i get my left arm back... even better.
