First, my story "Slush Puppy" won First Prize in the Hart House Review Literary Contest! You can pick up a copy of the Hart House Review at Hart House. It's a beautiful issue.
Second, I went to my new job this morning just for an informal session and things there are more wonderful than I ever imagined. I feel incredibly fortunate to have got this position. It's going to be a great way to spend the summer.
Third, even though my new job requires relatively informal attire, I went shopping today and spend about $300 on summer clothes and such. Specifying the amount is tacky I realise, and it might not seem like much to some, but if you know how little Stu and I have been living off of for the past year, you will understand why blowing $300 was such a pleasure.
And fourth, well, pictures speak louder than words. Here is a photo of a dream come true.
Oh, and welcome welcome summer!
