enyorança (p: [ə ɲu 'ran sə]) - catalan: n. a state of longing

Chronicling the ex-expat life and the desire for something greater. Experiences, thoughts, and ideas formed because of a former lifestyle that's disappeared. Global culture, domestic lifestyle. Consolidated into an outlet that may or may not be interesting to anyone else. Also a kind of travel blog because sometimes I go places. All photography is mine unless credited otherwise.

HEY, EVERYONE.

Long time no see!  Been awhile since I showed up around here.

Truth is I've been working like crazy.  It's hard to write a lot from a smartphone, which is all I use anymore of late, and that's why it's been months since I've posted anything.  And I'm only posting now since I'm at the tail end of flu recovery and I'm going back to work tomorrow.  I was out for a week because the sickness was kicking. My. Ass.

So how's life been?  Or maybe I'm asking the wrong people.  Those of you who've still stuck around to read my posts whenever I make them are probably asking how I'm doing.  Or you follow me on Twitter, in which case you probably have a pretty decent idea.  Just because Twitter's about the only social media platform I can use while at work because I'm limited to a 140-character posting.

Anyway, if you don't, here's the run-down.

I'm moving to Jacksonville, Florida soon with work.  Yep, I've found a job that managed to transfer me.  One of my co-workers proved he's a hard enough worker to earn himself his own office, and because I've sufficiently impressed everyone enough (much to my own surprise), he wants to take me with him.  He's been wanting me to help him start an office practically since I started and he was thisclose to getting his own office back in May/June, but it wasn't until about two and a half weeks ago when the higher-ups decided to pull the trigger and get this guy going, so he's leaving as soon as we get 25 people in our office, and taking me with him.  Along with another guy, I'm not the only one, but the fact that he's had me in mind practically since I started, and I only got promoted within the office about a month and a half ago.  So yeah.  For someone who's struggled with self-worth and self-esteem issues, having a guy I really respect, someone who is the kind of person I really want to be, wanting me to help him start a brand-new office is a pretty big deal.

And I get to move to Florida.  I've never even been to Florida!

Oh, and the guy I liked?  He left back in June and I haven't seen him since.  But there's a rumor that he may come down to Jacksonville to help us get started.  I don't know if it's actually true or not.  I've stopped caring, to be honest.  I don't have time to think, or care, about guys anymore.

Hopefully I won't wait another 6 months to post again.  We'll see.
