I've been busy getting things in place for piano teaching and other work here in the Tracy area. I've signed up with two employment agencies and have appointments at two others. Today's employment screening took a gleeful three hours of poorly managed testing. Color me 'burnt umber' (because I've already used up the 'unimpressed' crayon). I've also been submitting applications for part-time graphic design jobs as they come available.
I just had a meeting with one of the yellow pages advertisers to market my piano teaching business. I've made contact with a music store in Modesto to rent studio space to teach there one day per week. I've also networked with the local music store, the music teachers association and the executive director of the Stanislaus Arts Council.
Thursday I take my driving test to get my California license.
It makes me tired just writing out all that I've done. No worries though: it's not been all work and no play. I've gotten in tons of eating, sleeping, cuddling, chatting, gaming and internet surfing. I'd be a rich man if only I could have found a way to get paid for catching up on my Strongbad e-mails. Being on DSL after a year of 28k migranes is like eating a Godiva Double Chocolate Raspberry Truffle after a year of munching on rusty nails.

It sounds like the honey moon is over. :(

Well, Curt coming down with bronchitis during our actual honeymoon definitely shifted us into practical mode right away. Fortunately he's not been to work since I arrived and I've been loving all the time with him. While not a hollywood honeymoon it's been a wonderful transition time.
