Jesus Christ I haven't posted in a while

So basically I had no idea that it has been so long since my last post (June?!  June!)

I apologize to whatever readers I have out there.  Quite a lot has happened since June.  Here are some updates:

I have still been writing for French Quarter Magazine
In total, I have published five articles since August 2014.  Not bad, if I say so myself.

I moved back to the US
Can't say my address is in France anymore, or even Austria.  I'm back home living with my parents, and I anticipate that happening for a long time (until my student loans are paid off).  Although I was accepted into a grad school program that spans France, Germany, and Turkey, I can't afford it at the moment and may have to postpone that particular dream.

I got a job, then got another job
This is something that has happened oxymoronically:  quickly over the course of a few months.  The short story is that I was offered a job by Company A, they rescinded the offer due to budget constraints, then I worked for Company B for a month in a totally unrelated field.  Additionally, I had to leave job B just Monday since Company A has made itself known again with an even better offer than before.

I'm into quilting
Oh man am I into quilting.  I'm buying new supplies weekly and have made 3 quilts since I came home in September.  I missed my sewing machine, but had never quilted before.  It's fun!  Want some pictures?  Here are some pictures.

So... yeah!  That's what I have going on in my life.  What's new with you all?
