Finally… some relief. Taxes are done and off in the mail. Joy is out working in the field, and I just got home after driving Joy to Ocala to pick up her car from the Auto Body experts and depositing a check into my account. That check will allow us to finally pay back my parents.

Do you ever just feel like spending some time by yourself?
I have felt that way quite a bit this past week, because I have been so busy with work, school, setting up our new house, and working out troubles that I am having in my marriage. I am really quite stressed out, and I am distressed and unhappy with the way certain things are going in my life right now. There is a lot of uncertainty with where my friends will be next year, as well as uncertainty with my job. I enjoy parts of it, but I am not sure if I want to spend the next two years working with the people I work with in the work-relationships that I have right now.

Life has been bearing down on me lately. Everything feels difficult for me right now. Friendships feels strained and unrewarding. I am having relationship issues with Joy that seem simple to resolve from one perspective but overwhelming from another. I feel overwhelmed. I thought things were going well with work, but now everything at work seems dauntingly uncertain.

It seems like it has been ages since I last wrote…
The job search is over. It ended January 28th, 2006. I am now working as an assistant manager for Domino’s Pizza. I am an MIT — manager in training. I hope to be done training by June when my semester is over and the schoolwork is done for a while.
The house has been painted, cleaned, the floors prepped, and everything is ready to go for moving. Actually, with the help of several of my friends I have managed to move the majority of our stuff from the apartment that we are leaving to our new home. Joy does not know this yet. I hope she is suprised tomorrow night when she comes home.

Today we had our Pizza, Poker, and Painting party. It wasn’t all that much of a party, if you ask me. Also, the party morphed into pizza, pastries, and painting pretty quickly. Almost everyone (including me) left before we could get into a game of poker. However, Lana did end up going to a poker tournament later that night. She place 6th in her very first poker tourney. I am super proud of her.
Oh, we also finished painting our entire house.

Today was a very eventful and meaningful day for me. I was busy from the moment I woke up until the end of the day when I finally went to sleep.
Today Joy and I closed on our very first home!!

I am beginning to realize more and more that in life you really don’t have to do everything right to be a success… or even to “make it in life.” In fact, there are many situations where you will be a success by just doing one thing right… really right… or by having just one strong commitment and keeping it no matter what.

There is a buzz now that Sony’s PS3 will cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $500 - $800 dollars when it debuts. The XBox 360 is still not available in sufficient enough quantities for retailers to guarantee that it will be in stock. In fact, most retailers do not advertise the XBox 360 at all outside of their stores.
With a proposed price for the Nintendo Revolution at around $200 per console and an initial shipment in high enough numbers to meet demand, Nintendo could easily make a big impact on this generation of console gaming. I hope it does.

Joy and I are in the process of buying a house. I feel like we are only half-way done with this process, but that is in terms of time. Meaning that we close on March 3rd, 2006 and we agreed to buy the house 30 days before that.
People who know about our imminent purchase are offering up their advice on any number of things ranging from realtors, contract clauses that should be included, banks, mortgages, etc.
