Positive developments? #2

[jon2911]

Things have been a bit crazy, but good. Got to see one of my favorite bands do their last U.S. show this weekend. They're called Delirious and they're from the UK. Amazing time.

Also started a new part-time job at a church, helping a new worship pastor who just arrived from California. He has no network here so I'm helping him lead on Sundays and finding musicians for him. Really right up my alley and it's going well. Also got to do lunch with him and the pastor, and briefly told them about my sitch. That would be a deal-breaker most places but they had a positive reaction. Cool.

Stayed up way too late watching the U2 broadcast Sunday night, and I'm still tired. My boss was taking a while to get back to me on salary stuff, and I was getting nervous, but then Saturday a letter came saying I qualify for extended unemployment. Told my boss, and he said that's great timing. He's had a lot of unexpected tax burden this month and can't pay me full-time yet. It's nerve-wracking being in the entrepreneurial-startup world, but I love it, and we have a great relationship. So I'll be taking Uncle Sam's money for a little while longer, have no problem with that.

I think I might text W soon about Thanksgiving, been so busy I haven't thought much about it. Nothing from her since last week.
