All In Due Time

Random thought: I occasionally listen to movie soundtracks and right now I have Gladiator on and I forgot how completely badass this thing is. That movie was a defining moment of the 2000's for me and this soundtrack really pumps me up. Check it out if you haven't done so.

As I've repeated ad nauseum, we had a few goals when we moved out here. I wanted to write, try voiceovers, and work in higher education. The first two are pretty much hobbies right now. I've been working part time in the sports department at the Charleston Post and Courier but it was just helping out and no writing to speak of. I continue to look for different avenues to explore voiceovers and have talked to a few successful voiceover artists so hopefully that takes me somewhere one day.

I'd interviewed for two positions at the College of Charleston in early March but had given up hope on landing one of them. Then last week, while I was at the Family Circle Cup (Charleston Professional Tennis Tournament) I got a call letting me know that the college wanted to hire me as their Transfer Credit Evaluation Coordinator. Needless to say I was beside myself as I'd started feeling pretty low being more or less unemployed. I talked it over with Kristen just to make sure we were both on the same page and then called the college back to accept. I start on Monday. The optimism is back and truly its a good feeling.

Our goal was to live for us and that's exactly what we're doing. Life is good and hopefully it will continue to only get better...
