My semi-every-two-months update

for anyone who has been wondering where i have been off too, (and if you werent wondering, :p), here is a list of events over the past few months.


We have been trying to sell our house for a few months now, and today we have an offer! $4000 under what we were asking , but we expected something like that.

I am once again in between jobs.; I was working as a contract programmer for a month and a half (from home), but it turns out the guy i was working for got bent out of shapoe if i got near 40 hours of work a week, then tried to stiff me a week's worth of pay. He claimed he never recieved the email with the timesheet. So i emailed hiom the timesheet, the original email i sent him, plus 2 emails that he sent in response to it. I got my money, but that contract was cancelled.

I interviewed for a job at Microsoft, in the Redmond office, but didnt get it. I have some prospects in Raleigh, which is where we want to move, so that is much much better.


I havent had a ton of time to write, but I have been decveloping some cool softwARE,and once it hits the beta test stage, expect to see me here recruiting people to test it.

I have a spiffy new computer, a beautiful $3000 tax write off. A 17" widescreen Laptop; an Alienware Aurora M7900. It is SLI ready, but right now only has one video card.

With any luck, further updates in the near future will be either form VA (if we are staying with Bree's sister), or NC.


Footnote: I have a copy of Final Draft 7 on this bad-boy, so soon I will be working on screenplay versions of Father Dillon's Funeral and Justice. If anyone is unfamiliar with those stories, let me know and I will repost them in the horror fiction section.

Have have you all been? :D
