Brief

My time here in the U.S. is winding down. Less than two months before I'm off to things unknown. The job opportunity that I mentioned before looks pretty positive, which means I'll probably be staying in Egypt after the others come back from our trip together. It seems highly likely that I will be staying there to teach for a couple of years. It's all very exciting, but I am beginning to get a little nervous. I am hoping to at least be home for summers, but we will see what happens. Right now I am just enjoying everything, and spending time with the people that I will miss while I am there.

EEEEEEEEEEEE

Some breakthroughs on the job front. Very exciting stuff, but I will refrain from details until a later time. Ambiguities until some things have been settled. Details to follow.

Anxiety

I am beginning to get stressed about finances. I feel like I will never get ahead. I am tired of struggling though. I am still trying to prepare myself financially for this summer. I have this dumb school loan to pay off. People are always asking to go out and do stuff, and I really can't afford to. I feel like a jerk turning them down over and over again, and when I go I feel guilty for spending money that I shouldn't be spending. I want so badly to get out to Denver to see the boys out there before I leave the country. I know my job isn't going to help much, but there are reasons that I have this job and not a better paying one at the moment. Life just gets stressful sometimes.

Misc

Life's been busy. We opened the new store this past week. I'll be working six days a week at the store and at least one with the girls, which is great. I know that I don't have the highest paying jobs, but they are jobs that I love, and hopefully I will be able to save a little bit of money. This summer's coming quickly, and I need to be ready for it. I am so excited about it. I talked to my friend about our travel plans yesterday, and it seems that everything is falling into place. So far so good.
