I am so exhausted!! I've went out every day this week paintballing. I am getting one heck of a workout.
Tonight we went to the local carnival. Man those guys sure do fast talk. I played darts for a stuffed animal for one of my girls. Before I knew it they guy said I owed him $40. That was all the money I came there with!! Anyway, he settled for $20 and gave me a smaller fluffy bear for my daughter. At least she got to feel special.
While we were there I ran into the director of the local public television station that I am trying to get a job with. He was a nice guy and he wants me to come down to the station next week to see their operation. I think that is a good sign. :-)
I feel good about myself and my family. What more can I say...

Cougar/Mountain Lion/Puma ~ The Puma spirit
represents power, grace and stealth in
darkness, but its real power lies in the
silence of its eerie, unblinking stare that
seems to bore deep into one's soul. This
teaching can help us to discover the benefits
of concentration, deep contemplation and
prayer. As we peer into the darkness of the
unknown to feel its power, we can be guided by
our puma friend to the light on the other side.
The puma is extremely quiet during the hunt.
It knows when to be invisible and when to make
its awesome presence known. Silence is its
sword and power. Silence is highly respected
among American Indians and is seen as a holy
state of consciousness as we quietly behold the
grace and glory of the Creator. It is said
that silence speaks words of the Great Mystery.
When the student is ready, the puma teacher may
bring knowledge of this powerful medicine.
Cougar/Mountain Lion/Puma's Wisdom Includes:
Using leadership power wisely and without ego
Balancing power, intention, strength
Gaining self-confidence
Freedom from guilt
Cunning

My job interview went well today. I think what helped me alot was my own realization at the start of the questions how much I would really enjoy this job. In Mordor, while working in radio, I gained a real appreciation for working in the media. I was interesting being a local "celebrity" and exciting to put my ideas and talents to work to improve the station and the show. I honestly hope they pick me for this position. I won't find out though for several weeks.
...it is a blessed provision of nature that at times like these, as soon as a man's mercury has got down to a certain point there comes a revulsion, and he rallies. Hope springs up, and cheerfulness along with it, and then he is in good shape to do something for himself, if anything can be done.

What an exhausting and awesome weekend!!! My ole pal Stevil came here on Friday and we had a gaming marathon with all the local goons. It was very good to see Stevil, he is very much a kindred spirit to me. I was also good to do some serious role playing instead of the usual hack-n-slash that the local guys tend to want to do. I reminded me very much of our old games over 11 years ago.
Tommorrow I have my interview with MCTV. About a week ago my wife met the station manager and he basically told her what they are looking for in a director. After detailing my job experience to him he told my wife that it sounds like I am the person they are looking for. I hope it goes well because I would like to have the job. However, I know that it is in God's hands. He has brought us here for a purpose so I will continue to follow his lead.
Saw King Arthur the other day. For a movie that presents itself as a historic scenario it sure had a screwed up timeline. Wait for it on DVD is my advice to anyone.
