She is marketing medical equipment.  They are giving her a car, a cell phone, so so pay, and shitty health insurance.  That\'s the only part that sucks, but I am so happy she is going to work that I don\'t care.

Congratulations, Vid & wife!  The first thing you should buy is a new projector and screen.  That 100-incher probably isn\'t cutting it anymore.  And after that, Bladez would like a girlfriend....bad.

I\'m about to do the job hunt thing...our company is going out of bidness in less than a month.

Well she logged tapes for Jack Hannah’s Animal Adventure which she made so so money when she had a chance to do them.  So some money came in.  She also does closed captioning for my two shows.

But if you add in day care costs, we figured she had to make at the least 25 grand to even break even.  So with that said I’d rather have her home unless she could get over 35 grand.  Well it took a while, but she is over that plus a car so it all worked out for the better.  Now everything is fine.

And that my friends is the difference between the East Coast and the midwest :-P

My dad makes 32 thou a year, supporting Himself and I, living in a 600 buck a month appartment, paying 80% of the utilities (which are outrageous), and we\'re fine.

Finding a 35 thou a year job out of nowhere would be hard as **** to do here...I guess that\'s not the case on the East Coast.

See Yuz.

Well they don\'t grow on trees.  Lona looked for nearly a year.  She was a finalist between she and another person 3 times.  This is why we are so freaking happy.  She finally won!!

Haha! Finding a 35 grand job in Kentucky - espically the part I live in, is reserved for doctors and lawyers.

Congrat\'s, Vid & wife!
Now, go forth take her first paycheck and buy a bunch of p0rn and games. Show her you apperciate that extra cash.
