I’m really bad at writing entries in here. It’s not like it’s a requirement or anything, it’s just supposed to be here for my own edification in the future.
Work is really stressing me out a lot lately. It’s strange that it is, there’s not really anything in particular, I think I’m just burnt out on it. It happens everyfew months these days. It’s just so much the same thing evey day, eight hours a day. I was so ready to finish school and get to work, now sometimes I kind of wish I could go back. We don’t have the money to do it though, and actually, we don’t really have the money for much of anything these days. We thought the house would be within our budget, but our budget seems really thin these days. I will be the first to admit that I’m not very good at managing money, but I like to think that I’m doing pretty good these days, but still we’re barely making ends meet.
I got an email the other day about a documentary filming about Vietnam and the Huey II. The plan is to fly about the country in a restored chopper and interview Vietnam Vets. I think it sounds really col, but its a month off of work. I don’t know if I can take that time off, but I’m going to call tomorrow anyway. They’re going to need to a least offer me some kind of nominal pay. I really doubt that I’ll end up doing it, I was just included in a bulk email, but I’m still at least showing a bit of interest. No telling what will happen.
Nur, our Turkish student, is still here with us, We told her she could stay here as long as she needs, we know that she is at least interested in getting an appartment as opposed to when Gary was here. Besides, we have an actual guest room now and she’s genuinely more pleasant to be around. I’m sure we’ll get tired of her eventually and want our privacy back, but for now things are all okay.
