It's foggy outside right now!
I have nothing interesting to update with lately. That kinda makes me sad, but I don't really care that much, since everyone on my friends list has plenty for me to read and comment about.
Big news of the month: Nate's father was the top candidate in the country for this plush 180k/yr+ job down in Miami, Florida which he went down to do an interview thing for this week. He didn't get it.
I dunno what happened, since it seemed to be in the bag for him, but I guess it just goes to show that you can be the number one candidate and think it can't possibly not go your way and it still will sometimes.
Anyhow, that means that he won't be moving out of the area (which I was kinda apprehensive about anyhow, since that would mean he wouldn't be as readily able to help Nate out if need be). Which is good, but Nate seems to be a little more bummed about it than even Sal seemed to be, from what Nate told me.
Uhh... however, on the bright side, Sal is good friends with the president of Bridgewater State College down the road from here and the Dr. offered him a job there and said he'd make a nice offer for him (salary wise and such). If he gets that, since the other job isn't a possibility anymore, Nate could transfer to Bridgewater and go there for FREE. Not counting books and such. It's closer, has a good tech program, and it would be free.
I like New England Tech, but if Nate can get away with onyl 13k to pay off for his first year at NEIT and go for his other three years with no cost at Bridgewater, well... lol.
We'll just have to see what happens once Sal comes back to Massachusetts next week.
In the mean time, I need to do some serious artage... bah. Maybe later. D:
