No real news here

Diageo called earlier today, wanting to know if I was still available and interested in possibly joining them. I didn't quite know what to say -- although I've already reached an agreement with another employer, and am actually quite looking forward to starting on my new career with them, I couldn't quite let go of the ideal of working in an international environment...and so I've agreed to another interview, to take place in Amsterdam next Monday. By then, I probably will have signed with the bank, but anything could happen in the first month (trial period), and it would be nice if I could have something else lined up in case it doesn't work out there.

My sciatica is getting better, though slowly; and I'm kind of worried how I'll fare in New York. What's the point in going halfway across the world if you can't sit, or stand, or walk for any length of time? As of today, I've exhausted my supply of painkillers, and as Dutch doctors generally can't be persuaded to issue any repeat prescriptions of said medication, I'll have to see how I'll go once my last pill wears off.
