Now Groningen?

Another day, another option makes its appearance on the horizon - in turn making yesterday's lie-in seem perhaps far more productive than it was. Amazing how little time it takes to rattle off another set of embellishments to send out into the void for a response. All via the amazing interconnectivity of the fabulous internets - how would you survive without that marvel? (far more poorly, comes the answer back right quick)

And it has its unique benefits, this one. Defendable career-wise, and depending on the nature of things could provide the maximum flexibility of movement of any choice out there. Location is perhaps not ideal, but that just depends on random people anyway, and since you need a place to settle into, why not that one? Not to mention the proximity to the world hub of Amsterdam as well. In short, I think it works, to be frank, and on this there is the added benefit that the qualifications might provide a real match to the position offered. Ah, I wonder. What ultimate shape will the "bespoke" opportunity for this fall take? So long as it provides a route of escape, I suppose it hardly matters in the end... just needs one is all.

A strange day, this, as it also involved such time spent in reflecting on an airline ticket that now looks to go unused and requires further change to the plans. But not unforeseen, these past weeks, and maybe the postponement will prove easier on the soul. Though now the randomness of the additional passenger to Larnaca seems all the more ridiculous and potentially intriguing as a focal point of the trip. Tread carefully, my friend, as you dream above all of the options for the future and the stacks where copies of your documents sit. Inhale the fresh air of foreign lands and smile rueful smiles at the playful unexpectedness and yet predictability of the universe. Soak up the magic of Messi and the words of Master Shakes too - both are timeliness but your exposure to them in their arenas remains all-too limited.

Vacation time is here, and even though it's not technically a stranger, we bid it welcome. For it is welcome indeed. Always.
