Update on work, trip, and happy hour.

My office. I forgot to take pictures of our communal work area.

Always smells delicious in my office.

Now that I have settled into my job I hope to update more often. It's been awhile, and much has happened. I'm now working at McGill in the department of Human Genetics and I really like my job. I definitely miss writing, but now that I'm settled I hope to pursue freelancing more aggressively. Anyways, I thought I'd show you a picture of my office and of course, the famous espresso machine that I am always bragging about.



It was really busy at work for December-January, so now that it has quieted down a bit I have a bit more time to think about what I'd like to start doing next. Freelancing is definitely on the agenda, and I'm on a waiting list to start French classes at McGill. My french has already improved a lot since moving here, but I look forward to developing my business french.


Adam and I were able to go visit our friends Sara and Marge a couple of weekends ago in Kingston, ON. They moved out East from Saskatoon the same time as we did. It was a nice little city, and it was great to see our buddies again. It was a small taste of "home".

Playing Bonkers with Sarge.

Marge making cosmos at the bar. Riders beer cozy, U of S tshirt. So much SK in one photo.

Sarge at the bar- still representin' SK with their Great West beer basin.

Matt and Chantal - from Saskatoon, but we met them here.

Nicolette and JF - Nicolette is from Calgary, and JF is a real Montrealer! ha

Margot, Adam and JF

We also hosted our first official Cinq à Sept - the French Happy Hour. We invited people to stop by after work for a drink and some apps. Most of our friends so far are from Saskatoon, but we're slowly meeting more and more people.
