For the people who were wondering where the heck I was

I was working.
In actual fact, I am working.

Yes, I'm a full time employee in a real company, benefits and all.

I love the company, but I don't dwell on the fact that I enjoy my job scope as much now that I've switched over to full time (it's a different position, don't ask).

In the meantime, yours truly has been working on getting the right qualifications, taking the relevant classes, overdosing on John Mayer and Yehudi Menuhin.

Go me.
