Oh wow, I’ve been gone way too long.
Okay. Not really “gone.” Was here, just wasn’t updating.
Long story short, shit had gotten hairy. I’m still where I was, but there for a while I wasn’t real sure how things would go and I spent many weeks teetering on the edge of real hunger because a lot of what was keeping me going materially had dried up. It wasn’t from lack of trying to improve my situation but it was starting to look like nothing was going to work.
And finally I found a job. It is nothing earth-shattering but, based on the number of times I saw a job listing for this on Indeed before I finally applied because there wasn’t anything that would have kept me from working any days asked, they needed me at least as much as I needed them. It’s nice when it works out that way.
It’s not meant to be permanent. I’ll stay in the current employment situation as long as I have to in order to get to the next phase — there are phases now; I finally have a game plan — but I intend to move on to something else at some point. I’ll know when it’s time.
In the meantime, here is a recent Rory for you!
Well. It’s recent from my POV. Possibly also yours, but it wouldn’t surprise me if you’ve seen it on Instagram already. It seems Mr. McCann has entered into some sort of partnership with an outfit (no pun intended) called Slanj Kilts, which has apparently decided to diversify into whisky-making somehow. And as we fangirls are marvelously aware, if there are two things Rory loves in this world besides Mrs. McCann and his mum, those are kilts and whisky. Thus.
I was given to understand Rory likes the peaty whiskies, or at least he loves two of them that I’m aware of — but apparently, this one’s not peaty. I’m mad curious to try it. Perhaps one of these days.
Anyway. Have fun. If this wasn’t on Instagram before, it will turn up there now. (Big man has not shared it himself.) I still find stuff there from my old screenshots and stuff. On Pinterest too. It’s a nice little walk down memory lane.
