I finally got a job serving again south of downtown Orlando. I'm working with someone who also worked with me back home, which made the transition so much easier. I'm staying at my friend Darragh's, which is conveniently located near everything I do in Orlando already. This house is very interesting. Darragh has a surplus of photography machinery and crafts and he's teaching me how to do a lot of things. He's very creative with his hands and knows what he's talking about. I wish I had a hobby or something that I knew a lot about. Hopefully spending all this time with him will help me learn a trick or two. He's got some pieces in galleries and gets paid to write articles on tutorials. Today he's showing me how to do red film exposure. Downside to all of this is I miss Pat so much. We get to see each other regularly but I'm used to seeing him every day. We're coming up on a year and a half, it's exciting. I'll post things that I'll be learning in the future.
