I have a new job.... in Melbourne, Australia!!
I'll be sticking with science for the time being, working on a Gates Foundation project studying bacterial pneumonia in children. I start in late February and will be there for at least 6 months.
HOLY COW. Or shall I say...CRIKEY!!!

Congrats! (And I'm sure you made the right choice -- It sounded like a much better fit than THE LAST QUEEN OF SCOTLAND.)
Wow wow wow
Awesome! It is your destiny.
YAY pneumonia! Congrats eileenium!
Bacteria might be your future....hmmm?
With almost 100 people wanting to visit you will have to stay at least 2 years !!

Congratulations! It seems like an awesome opportunity - glad to see that it worked out!
Oh, my! Congratulations are in order, eh? Will I be able to add you to my "Australia" listings, then? In other words, will the blog continue from there?
Congrats, Eileen! I think that is a great opportunity and I think living and working abroad (again for you, but in different circumstances) is a great choice. Too bad you'll be the only person of Irish descent in Oz... :)
i guess you took my advice. well, you're welcome. so stoked for you eileenio. i probably could have happened to a better person, but it didn't, so i'm happy for you! hahahah
Yeah, I'm really excited. And fear not, the blog will continue on- I figure it will be a good way to keep in touch.
p.s. buddymollys, a better person wouldn't point out the fact that there's a typo in your comment. alas.
"only person of Irish descent in Oz"
Hahahahahaha... Try nearly 2 million of Irish descent, including 50K+ people actually born in Ireland. An Irish guy just walked past me in my office right now!
