Weekends fly by way to fast. I can't believe tomorrow is Monday already and you know what that means, the beginning of another work week. 
Hopefully though, some things will change within the next coming weeks and I can get out of that place. Randy goes for his interview at another garage door company. The main reason he wants another job is because he wants daylight hours so we can spend more time together. The downside to this possible job though, is it only pays $12/hr to start where as he's making $14.47/hr at his current job. That's about $5k less per year. On top of that, the job location is about a half hour away, so that requires more time and also more money for gas.
So I'm not really sure that it's worth him taking the job. It's in the area I'd really like to move to, but if we have to make a major change in lifestyle just to do it, I'm not so sure I'm willing to compromise.
I guess we'll make our final decision on Monday after Randy has his interview.
Adelphia also called him for an interview, but he hasn't been able to call back yet. I hope he can get hired with them as a cable technician. They make quite a bit of money from what I understand. It works better to my advantage if he gets that job so I could focus on my education and go back to school.
I also decided that I'm definitely going to apply to be an SG. I have tons of ideas for sets and from what I can see, most of them haven't been put to use by any current SG's so, I'm pretty excited about that. I'm not sure when I'm going to apply though. Right now, with our current living situation, we don't have a whole lot of privacy and I wouldn't be comfortable shooting my first set right now. So does anybody know how long you have to send in your first set after being accepted? Reason I ask is because we have definite plans to move within the month but I don't know if it would make sense for me to apply now or wait until we're settled. I heard that it can take up to a month for them to respond to your application, so I may be better off applying now. But then if they accept it earlier and if I'm required to have my first set in within two weeks (for example) of them accepting, I may be screwed. I suppose if it really came down to it, I could always do my first set at another location or something. I don't know, I always tend to over analyze shit. You wouldn't believe the debates I have with myself over just what to eat for dinner!
Another possible set back is, I'm looking to get another computer. This one is about 5 years old, and though its very decent, I just want a new one!
Though I should be able to use the new one right out of the box, you never know if I'll have compatability issues with my camera or what. Highly doubtful, but that's just me over analyzing again. So perhaps it is just best if I wait to apply....or is it? AAHHH!!
Think I'm gonna go relieve some of this stress with a good shopping sesh. But before I go, here's a bunch of randomness for your viewing pleasure.
