Feeling better & worse...
Mentally, I'm feeling much better. The first quarter of this year has been a very stressful one. Trying to sell the house, commutes to California, buying a house before the other one is sold, my firstborn son becoming a holy-terror. I felt like I had half a heart left on a Zelda game with that inane beep-beep-beep-beep, telling me of my impending doom. The bank account at one point got down to under 500 dollars, a far cry from the amount I had in the bank before I was married.
But, now, it feels like it's all turning around. Made about 1800 on the close of the house. Made 250 from the deadbeats who didn't buy our house, but tried to. Got escrow back this week from the house. Got my insurance refund back from the other house. Got state tax refund. Waiting on Federal. All-in-all, the bank account is back up to about half of where it was in it's glory days, but it's probably been a year since it was this high.
I'm actively looking around for work. This job just isn't doing it for me anymore. I've had several interviews over the last few weeks and have 2 more scheduled coming up next week. Maybe one of them will bear fruit.
Physically, I feel like my allergies are gonna kill me. I got the scratchy throat and achiness going on. Not fun.
I've actually been able to use my office though. It's been nice. I bought Kingdom Hearts 2 and have been playing it an hour or 2 each night. It's some fun shit. Lots of Disney and Final Fantasy characters. I'm on the Pirates of the Carribean level right now. It's weird interacting with Jack Sparrow...
Need to go buy a digital camera, but I am not sure I can make myself part with that kinda money right now... The nintendo DS Lite is looking pretty sweet too... :-)
