So Jen always tells me not to open these apologetically acknowledging how long it's been since the last entry, BUT when my best friend texts me asking where his Robbie Rambles has been at, then I know I've gone too long between entries. The reality is that life has been very very busy. In my last missive, I naively mused that now I was done job hunting I would have some more bandwidth to write. Well, it turns out that when you start a new job, even if you're working a very reasonable number of hours and maintaining a healthy relationship between work and the rest of your life, getting oriented to your new responsibilities and absorbing all of the context necessary to do your job actually takes a lot out of you. Who knew?!
Thanks for the 'shout out' (do the kids still call it that?), Robbie. I always enjoy your Rambles.
