em-ployed

hey folks. i'm employed! got the grant writing job i was hoping for. we're all moved in to the duplex (but far from settled), and we don't have internet yet...trying to figure out how to make it happen...no dialtone=no dsl. so, i'll be a bad blogger for quite a while, i suspect, as i'm probably not allowed to do such things from my grant writing computer...boo.

anyone watching the super bowl this year? trevor's kind of obsessed with the fact that the bears (as he would say: thabears thabears thabears thabears) are in it. so i'm making him hot wings.

un-employ-ment

yes. today is my last day at asyr. last time to post at work. because i don't have a job... well, sort of. i STILL haven't heard back about that grant writing thing, but i'm calling dude TODAY if i haven't heard by 4pm. i swear. seriously. how can they leave me hanging like this???

but we're moving anyway. saturday. so if you're feeling extra-friendly, give me a call, cause we will probably need some help unloading the freaking u-haul. that i am NOT being the one to drive this time! and if i don't hear from you, i might call you anyway (as is becoming my fashion--see above).

so...the last day at the office. nari came with me today. just wrapping things up here and there.

and one more reason i'm glad to be moving back to the big lr (by the way--we'll temporarily be in a duplex off of university and h)--underground houses are want to let water in when it rains four hundred inches. and ruin art and other niceties. yeah, lovely.

just keeping it real.

buying the cow

so...we're back. the wedding was great fun, and everything went smoothly. i don't have any pictures, so if you're reading this (ahem, leah, elizabeth), and you have pictures on your camera, be prepared for me to stalk you at some point...trevor's dad took tons of pictures on his film camera, which is apparently not working so well, so all of those "free" pictures i was counting on getting...only getting a small portion. i'm pretty bummed about that. i should have assigned my camera to someone...but my camera kind of sucks at taking pictures in dimly-lit rooms.

the "mini-moon" was alright. we spent most of the time in the car. driving to the degray campus. driving to hot springs for dinner (german food.mmmmm). driving back to the triple-wide (yes, as in huckabee's infamous). then back to hot springs for lunch (argentinian food.mmmmmmm). and then back to the big l-r to house hunt.

we've found a duplex off the corner of university and h. it's cute on the inside, and totally temporary. we're hoping to get ourselves situated and start looking to buy a house (that is, with the salary i currently do not have), or to move into one of the loads of houses around little rock that force you to commit to a one-year lease. geez, people. not everyone wants to rent for-ever! either way, we'll be getting back to having high-speed internet at home, which should lead to better blogging. well, more frequent, at least.
