Well, the city is not exactly like I remembered it, but it's close enough. I've been focused on two things: figuring out what the hell is up with the node--"my" node--in Harbor Park and cramming to get my Private Investigator license so I can pick up some extra money tracking down missing people. Police work, but of my own choosing and on my own terms. The license was a piece of cake. With my police detective background and computer science background--and a little Dreaming during the exam--I aced it. Just got the license in the mail yesterday, and the newspaper ads and website for my services just went live. I think I can do some real good in this new line of work. I'm hopeful.

The Harbor Park node, on the other hand, is.... Well, there's two people messing with it. Looks like some sort of scrying magic. For the past few week, I've been watching them, trying to assess what they're up to and if they're friends or foes. I'll decide what to do--if anything--very soon now. I've not tapped any loose quintesence there yet, but my stash is running low, and it's /right/ /there/.

I was also ecstatic to get my 2006 Toyota MR2 delivered finally last week. It's nice to have a car again: the motorcycle is god-awful to drive in winter. Got a great slip for the houseboat at the marina, too.

I think life will be looking up very soon now.
