It's been a year!

I started this thinking I finally had the discipline and fodder to keep it up. I couldn’t have been more wrong! I’ve had plenty to write about, I just didn’t.

I’ve got some time on my hands now though, so I’m thinking about going back and starting over. Oh, trust me, I’ve got plenty to write about when it comes to the past fews years I’ve travelled.

Let me just tell you about what’s happening these days……..

Last May, after my Sicilian boss went crazy and fired me/kicked me out of my apartment I found myself back in NY. I returned to Sicily in July to live with my friend (boyfriend?) and that ended in threats of possible Carabinieri (military police) intervention as only Sicilians love to do. Then after another 2 months in Taormina and Messina I decided to come home. I planned on returning to College to finish my degree. I didn’t realize that I couldn’t enroll on whatever day I would like and that they wouldn’t welcome me with open arms with a heartfelt “OH! Erin’s here….. Now, NOW we can begin” It was the end of September and classes began a month before I even thought about joining in. Now, I’m doing everything possible to get back to Europe.

While looking for a job in Europe I’ve been looking for some sort of gig here in NY. If I don’t find a job in some other country to start….. yesterday…. I figure I’ll go get my butt on line at the registrars office at good ole Nassau Community College and get going on some summer courses.

So, as it stands I have 3 options.

Option A: Find a job overseas and hightail it outta here stat.

Option B: Find a job overseas for September/October, take spring/summer courses and take a part time gig in the meantime.

Option C:  Yeah, no, there’s no option C.

I’ll be back!

Ciao
