The Return to Somewhere

I am back in Montreal and recovering. Not just from my bad cold (that is ebbing) but also from seeing my family for such a brief amount of time and then having them so far away from me. Also, I was not prepared for the snow. It was so bad when I got here that they could not open the doors on the train to let people out. And my taxi driver got lost (apparently he forgot the name of the address I had to repeat three times and could not see the road signs in the heavy snowfall). But I am back.

Now, I have a new roommate that I find a little odd (or maybe just quiet); another roommate who just stopped speaking to me; and another roommate who I would like to stop speaking to (kind of hard to do - she is the one I pay the rent to every month).

My plan is still to leave by late spring, but that is predicated on not finding any work here before then. I have three job postings in my inbox and I may give at least two of them a try.

So, I am back. Hope that there is more for me in the year of the dragon (actually, Chinese New Year is in February, but I had to get that out there).
