On The Road(Plane) Again

As most of you know...Will, Ramses, Nemo, and I have moved to London, England.



While I think I'm computer-literate, I've actually never hosted a blog, so it's taken a little bit to take time out of my day of library dusting, pub crawling, gofugyourself reading and Facebooking to sit down and create this. (Which was SUPER easy by the way).



So we've moved and we currently reside in Muswell Hill. It's a nice, relatively suburban section of London, that has no access to the tube, and is a good hour bus-ride from school. Yes folks, an hour. (Which is an unbearably long amount of time if you've had too much to drink, or if you have a migraine, both of which, I've already had the pleasure).



Our cats surprisingly made it through customs faster than we did, which was fantastic, since all the websites ensured us it would take up to four hours after we got out of customs, AND they can't guarantee that they wouldn't be quarantined anyway.



We arrived at our flat to find that it hadn't been cleaned, we had leaks in two rooms and our fridge had no shelves (thanks Foxtons, glad that 376 pound administrative fee went STRAIGHT to your Christmas party fund).



Will and I are both still searching for jobs, me as a part-time, hopefully something in museums, but writing will do position, and Will in environmental science, preferably in water quality. This, is much harder than anticipated. Both of us have sent out more CV's than I have ever sent out before, with, minimal response, so, if anyone out there wants to lend us a hand, we will gladly take it.



The cats, are for the most part ( I guess this depends on what you consider good eating) are eating better than we do, with such delicacies as Trout and Salmon in Aspic with Roasted Vegetables, and Veal and Rabbit with a hint of mint and carrots. The cat litter is something to be desired, we miss Tidy Cats and wish we could import it without a huge cost.



School has started and it's much harder than I anticpated, which, I think is good, since after this, there isn't anything else, so it better weed out the freakos. :-) I absolutely love it, and it sounds like my project is getting approved (and hopefully funded).



I have a couple of presentations coming up, so once I do those, I might put some of my stuff up here, in case anyone is interested.



It's not as rainy as I'm sure everyone thought it would be, it's actually pretty nice, albeit a little colder than I'd like October to be. We've done some minor exploring, I've taken Will to the British Museum, Chelsea, Portobello Market etc. Today we went to Simcha in Trafalgur Square which was AWESOME (and I got a bunch of propoganda for Jared!!!)



We live on the High Street, right above a Pizza Place, the owners are very nice (although very loud on Sunday mornings), and the coffee is great! (Haven't tried the food though).



Anyway, things are good, the wedding was AWESOME, although in hindsight, I wish we had time for a honeymoon, and a little time before we moved, it was too crazy the last two months or so. Hopefully my parents will get the pictures soon, so we can send them out to the select few :-)



Anyway, feel free to give us a ring when you have a chance (email us at our personal emails if you want the number, I'm not about to post it on this open space). I'm sure we will write regularly now that this is up and running!



Lots of Love, Tea, and Football,



Erin and Will (Or as my sister and Jared have famously dubbed us, EW)
