i haz a paycheck!

Normally you don't send a new technician out on his own for three weeks, but..after only one I am going out alone to run service calls. Not only that, but i made a good enough impression that they are sending me to a two week vendor school on a rather large piece of equipment en lieu of another technician they were going to send!

Performance pressure any one?
Hah! lucky i like challenges and learning new stuff.

Work is going well. (^_^) I even got kudos today!

Sure right not i will not bring in as much as i used to, but there is so much room to grow here.

William is doing well with his job too, but i don't see him as much (-_-)

Money will still be really tight for awhile but we are going to make it!

BooYah!

I start Monday!
(^____^)

The pay is good, has some nice perks (company car for service calls, dry cleaning..etc), benefits..And a future for upward mobility!

so...Got Will a car. 1999 Olds Intrige...high milage, only a few minor things wrong with it that we can tell.

Money is a big concern...we have none and his first paycheck is going to the car's first payement.

Meanwhile...here i set nervous and anxious waiting to hear back from a place i have interviewed thrice at. It's a good fit and i really want to work there. I think my chances are REALLY good that i'll get it but...

Will is enjoying his job for the most part, but they overwork him...

Remicade time!
Nothing special other than i bleed all over the place for the I.V. Tech.

Computer issue...Pulseaudio integration in Ubuntu 9.10 sucks. Got it working for the game i play (Second Live) but then my DVD drive seemed to die. Purchased and installed a new one...Nope..same problem..D'oH! I think i have a work-a-round.

Wills job...We need a car...NOW..Money is tight but i think i can swing the down payment and insurance startup until Will's paychecks start to kick in.

Ditch...Looks like i am digging and replacing the culvert pipe by hand, as we can't really afford to rent a Back-Ho and I don't know how to use it anyway (-_-)

Job Interview Friday...Woot...it's sounds hopeful and it's something i have experience with and actually Want to do.

BF's job looks like a good fit for him and he is happy with it so far.

We need another car though...meep..well..we can get a cheap one at a weekly pay-for place he knows.
That will work for now

(^_^) He starts Monday.

We went out to celebrate...Diner and a movie with shopping at the mall.

It was really nice to get out of the house for a while.
We might make a trip to the local gay club next week to celebrate with one of his friends.

Got cold and snowy here again, but there has been so much rain..driveway ditchpipe washed out O-o;

If it's not one thing it's another...who knows how much that will cost to replace.

Well...Will is still waiting to hear the final word on his job.
Meanwhile we have gotten him moved here and starting to put his things away.

I continue to be job-less

I hope me and him continue to work out as well as we have (^_^)...build a life together.

Wish i had some friends for us to go hang out with. He has some and we will hang with them as time and money permits but i still wish i had my own peer group...Spending time in the company of others is a good things for us to do, right now we spend all day together, Which is great! However i know we need to socialize as well in order to grow more together.

Well..the job interview up in Urbana was a bust...BUT
I did get a change to see the guys and they got a chance to see my BoyFriend for the first time and they all got along really really well... YAY!

Will's job interview here in Kentucky went really well and it look like he has a good shot at getting the job. That's great! *crosses talons*

my turn next...Neeeeed a job so we can put our lives in order and get on our feet so we can relocate to a better place...Like Urbana or Louisville.
(^_^)

Well..got Will's tooth taken care of via a program at the Health Dept.

Packing up to head up to Illinois tomorrow for a job interveiw..I hope it pans out and i also don't

It would complicate things but also...i don't care to live the rest of my live here in BFE Kentucky

As i type tis my Mate is pacing up and down the hall because he is having very bad pain due to a tooth ache...and there is little i can do to help. It hurts when someone you love is in pain and makes me feel sad on a lot of levels because i am not in a position to help him.

He just got a hair cut with some highlights and looks Hawt!

His job front is looking up, mine stays the same...

Myself, this weekend i decided to take my workstation down to upgrade it's O.S. ... WOW..ok...at 4am i gave up...
...but started on it again at like 9am and had it running by noon. Ubuntu doesn't like it when you dual boot from a Mirrored RAID...Rather the boot-loader doesn't like it. But, i did learn alot about Ubuntu...but i also kinda raised my voice at Will...Sorry baby, i can have a temper when i get frustrated.

It IS nice to have him at my place for this extended period of time, i feel some comfortable in his arms at night.

I love him

I don't want him to leave.

<_< he is still sleeping (*^_^*)

Yesterday being our one month together, i sneeked down and stole my BF off for a bit.

also
I have a cellphone!
i know...most of you are like...so?
believe it or not, this is the first cellphone i have actually owned; before now they were provided by work.

So i have an Nokia E71x which is nice, cheep, and seems to play kinda nice with Linux. When AT&T comes out with their Droid phone and after i find work, i'll switch to it.

I saw it twice and wish i could see it more.
I saw the normal 3D and the IMax 3D (with is awesome)

A friend of mine put it best:

"AVATAR is an absolutely incredibly amazing movie. The story line was expertly developed, there was lots of fast action and adventure and a vast amount of the scenery and just plane sights in the mover were incredibly fantastic. Fantasy and Science Fiction were woven together superbly to tell the never-ending story of corporate greed verses the indigenous populace and their ecology. Cathy the story of the love of a people for their land and the love affair between the two main characters was beautifully portrayed and the 3-D technology was flawless; not over done however, it drew you right into the movie in a fashion that immersed you in the story. With out a doubt this is one of the most excellent movies I have ever seen if not the best."

If you read up on How this movie came to be..not only it it awesome to your senses, but technologically brilliant and with these newly made camera and content creation tools; will change the way grand movies are made.

My relationship with William is progressing at a frightening rate, but that good!

Took him up to my dads for the holiday...he fits in there quite well. (We won the Star Trek Sceen-it game)

He took me to his sisters for new years...had a blast, and i fit in there just fine.
I drank too much... (-_-)...(We won the first round of Rummy but i was pretty much too drunk to play the second round well so we lost that one)

Then took him home with me, will return him tomorrow...Shhh...he is napping atm.
(^_^)
still looking for a job and i have an interview set up in Illinois; he is fine with the possibility of living there and i am fine with moving to other places if he finds better employment first. Looking in Louisville and surrounding areas.

I feel well at ease around him, he cares about me and is sensitive to my needs.
Love blooms
(*^_^*)

Mom and him get along well...She took us all out to see Avatar in 3d!. Great movie, my first 3D movie.

my first round of unemployment runs out this week...scared about that...

(^_^) We seem to go well together...sure i still have questions, issues and want to take it slow.
But i am off the market while we get to know each other more.

*sigh* but its a really nice feeling to have a boy freind
(*^_^*)
