And so it begins

Ok, so its been a while since my last message, so here goes. Not only did I graduate a couple of weeks ago, I finished off on the Deans list with straight As. A couple days before graduation I found out I was accepted to grad school. The day before graduation I had an on site interview with a company in Iowa. The week after that I had another onsite interview with a company here in Illinois. They both wanted to hire me. It didn't end up being much of a decision really, the job in Iowa had a lot more to offer. The downside, moving. The last time we moved it didn't go so well, and while a lot of our "stuff" is in storage and will not be making the trek with us this time, there are still many things that can, and probably will go wrong. I start my new job next Monday, June 4th. No vacation, or time for rest, just work, move, work. I know that life is full of adventures, and I know this is just another one of many, but as said before, moving sucks.

I need sleep

Ok, so it's 2247 CST and I am exhausted. After several hours in the truck we have finally gotten to our destination. I run in to get the key for our hotel, that was SUPPOSED to be reserved for us, and nothing. So I hand over my trusty credit card. I hope to be reimbursed, but hey it was only 70 bucks for the room, and will be slightly more with taxes. The big bill is going to come tomorrow when I fill the truck up. Lets see, probably 23 gallons of gas at about 3.10 a gallon equals time to call the bank for a loan. Math makes my head hurt. I am going to bed.

Torn....

Ok, so I know no one but my wife reads this, but here we go anyway. I need to get something off my chest. I will be graduating from college this coming Saturday, May 12th. But before that happens I have a second job interview with a company a few hours away. The issue comes in that I have also been accepted to graduate school here at western. So what's a guy to do? I am really excited about the prospect of getting to work, but I understand the need to further my education. My wife and I are now going through the process of recalculating our budget to see what we need in terms of pay to be able to afford a house and such, so with much luck we will get what we want/need. Then there is the added problem that we are unsure what everything will cost us in this new location. So many questions, so little time...
