This support post for my friend, Ashleigh.
Ashleigh and I started the process of becoming Peace Corps Volunteers at about the same time, and were progressing through the stages somewhat synchronously. Ashleigh just found out she is going to be deferred for a year.
Ashleigh, you will make a great Peace Corps Volunteer and someday we will meet as RPCVs and talk late into the night about our experiences!
OK, I know, I haven't written for a while...I've been trying to figure out why, and I guess its because I'm bummed out 'bout waiting sooo long for medical clearance.

There is some good new to report: I have found a home for Gage, my loveable dog and partner in crime. My Grandparents have offered to be his home while I am gone! This is wonderful because I know they will take good care of him.
Next on the agenda: starting phase II of Life Simplification.
In non-geekese that means: I am going to give a bunch more things away.
Happy 4K! This blog just passed 4,000 page loads!
Thank you for visiting my site. Knowing there are visitors helps keep me writing, which helps keep me positive and excited about the Peace Corps.

Sorry its been so long since my last post. I will plead forgiveness with the following excuse: I had four weeks to complete 43 performance reviews -- after work, I came home and vegetated.
Well, the reviews are done and now I'm back on track!
I did call the Peace Corps on Friday the 21st. The person I talked with was professional, respectful, and took a good amount of time to explain the next steps to me.
Here's the bottom line:
The person I talked with said not to expect any activity before March. He also said that I could call him back in March, because he would have a better idea then when they would start the review of my records.
