Ok, so I havent been talking about it that much on here, but I have been setting some pretty ambitious goals for myself. Mainly move to the city and look for work. Well, thats not working out for me. I have decided that I cant move without a job, at least not right now. Im just not happy with the way that my options are shaping up.

I have things pretty good right now, FWS is going to start me 2 months earlier than in previous years so that Ill be eligible for a promotion by the middle of summer, and it will also let me save even more money. They are also paying me to take a trip to VA for a national conference! Yahoo, everything will be paid for. And yes, the liquor store job is driving me absolutely bat-$hit crazy, but its better than nothing, and again, it will let me save a pretty substantial amount of money by this fall. So it is a means to an end. And by this fall, I will have about a year of managerial experience to put on my resume- always good, right?

I have also started researching mortgages. I think that if I decide to buy a mortgage to basically refinance the place that I am in (removing ex from the deed hopefully!), or to get one to buy a condo or something in the city, I will be paying substantially less than I would if I were renting. Or trying to make payments on the existing mortgage on the house that Im living in now.

I applied for jobs 49 and 50 this weekend, it was sort of a reality check I guess. I just need to calm down and get as much from my current situation as I can!


I guess I gave the wrong finger to the wrong man...
