Staci got a job! it's at a place called Whelan security as a guard. she seems really excited, mainly just to get out of the house! her first day is Wednesday, but she'll go in tomorrow to fill in final paperwork and such. I'll spare what little details I have in order for you all to find out more from her.
other recent events include going to the STATE FAIR OF TEXAS! okay, I admit I didn't know what I was getting into when we were headed out to the fair. truthfully, I always thought of a state fair as sort of a winner-take-all 'state-championship' of sorts of all the various county grand prize winners. (think "state championship" of high school sports). wow it was nothing like what I saw.
I planned on blogging about the state fair two weeks ago just after we went, but the pictures stayed on my camera just long enough to forget about em. they had fried everything though. fried twinkies, fried snickers, fried corn on the cob, even this years 'big hit', fried butter. gross. I DID however try chicken fried bacon. I've never eaten something so bad for you before! haha. the next day my face was shiny from all the grease in the pores :P
anyway the only other tidbit of news is that the yearlong wait for Washington Mutual's final farewell and crossover to Chase happened this morning. it's about frikkin time! I've dealt with that crap for over a year! work on Tuesday ought to go a lot smoother.
that's all for now folks! I say goodnight listening to yet another Texas thunderstorm. ahh I love the rain.

running out of patience
I just noticed on my own blog that I haven't updated it in 4 days short of a month. here it is Oct. 11th and what's happened since Sept. 15? ... almost nothing
I'm about to scream.
2 months ago today Staci and I finished up our final day of work, packed our bags and said 'see ya later Arizona', heading for the big D in Texas. we've been here now just short of 2 months staying with Staci's parents (who we are extremely grateful to, btw). We need our own place. we miss our stuff. we miss both having a job. Staci misses having a reason to get up in the morning other than to help me get ready for work. but most of all, we miss the normalcy of adult life.
Staci's doing all she can to find a job right now; she's part of the 50%+ of recent grads who can't find a job. even temp agencies and others aren't returning phone calls. we're both so discouraged we don't find happiness in so many things we used to. in the mean time we're chuggin' along, seemingly always waiting for payday, with the hope that the phone calls she's getting aren't just telemarketers.
sorry for the sad sad post. life is good, just a little rough sometimes.
