Long overdue first post from Knoxville

I just realized I hadn’t updated this thing in a while.

So, after three weeks here in Knoxville, everything seems to be going OK. No monetary problems to speak of so far. I have found a temporary job until something in my field opens up. I’m not at liberty to say who it’s for right now, but let’s just say it’s a cashier job for a major retailer who likes a certain color of the rainbow.

Oh, and how about those ETSU Bucs! Both the men’s and women’s teams won the A-Sun yesterday, and are going to the big dance! Whee!

More to come…

New Pad

A new pad for Greg and I has been secured.

It is located in Extreme West Knoxville, a stone’s throw from Farragut.

Here is a link to the photo, courtesy Google Earth…

Let’s see that satellite imagery…

And under the other, under a cut, is a view of the exterior…

For Your Viewing Pleasure

Knoxville, here we come!

Greg has officially been hired today as Associate Producer at WATE TV-6 in Knoxville. Details forthcoming.

Which means, of course, we’re on the move and I *have* to find *any* work I can down there.

It’s looking like Greg is going to get a job at a station in Knoxville as Associate Producer in the newsroom.

And there’s no job for me. No openings. No hope.

This worry inside me is making me so sick at my stomach, it’s almost unbearable.

Xanfan, you’ll be happy to hear about this…

You’ll be happy to hear about this DVD coming out on April 7th

News from me, later…

Another Game Show Geekery Post

To wash the bad taste of the Kaisers and the Schumins of the world out of my friends’ mouths…

Just hop on iTunes and search for “Clue Me In”… there are 15 episodes of mine and Greg’s game show for campus television there. Now that’s how a game show should be done.

You’ll feel better in the end, trust me.

And, tell me this, should I share this with the Invision board, possibly?

On a more positive note…

I have a couple of new script ideas. I feel now’s the time to start taking care of some serious writing. Who knows, maybe it might lead somewhere.

Wish me luck.

Warning: Game Show Geekery Post…

Heaven help us all. Matt Kaiser has figured out how to post to YouTube.

The world as we know it, is over.

With a new year comes new ideas…

Ladies and gentlemen, the first in a new series of video and audio features this year…

And you thought I was going to put that film studies minor to waste, now did you?

Post-Graduation Post #1

So, how does it feel to be a graduate? Given the current circumstances of the world… it’s not that great. The job market is tough and shows no signs of getting any better anytime soon. I often ask myself, how does one find a ray of hope in this trying time? The answer is simple: at least we have each other. I know that sounds like a cornball line, but it’s true. We all have to pull each other through this tough time.

Now, to the ceremony itself last Saturday. Friday night I got a stomach bug somewhere. Saturday I was nauseous and diarrheal. I barfed during the ceremony. That’s right, I barfed during the ceremony. Not the most dignified of moments, that’s for sure. But, I take it in stride. With as much hell as I went through with numerous departments of this university, I can say one thing: it could be considered payback of sorts. Mind you, it wasn’t intentional, but it was kind of fitting and fulfilling, nonetheless.

Still no word on that job… I’m going to call about it the first of next week to see what’s going on. Knowing my luck, Bonten probably cut the position to save on the stupid budget, but we’ll see.

TTFN.
