Things are looking okay on the job front. The job at Huntington--hereafter referred to as "Tutoring Job A"--proceeds well. I have to go in for a couple of hours at midday tomorrow, but hey, that's just more money in the bank as far as I'm concerned. The job in Vienna--hereafter "Tutoring Job B"--has finally contacted me about a few students, so I could start making money through them as soon as next week. This would be fantastic. These two jobs, coupled with substituting at the very least, would leave me in a decent spot financially.
Other things are going not-so-well. My family has reached some sort of madness threshold and crossed in, spiraling down into a seemingly never-ending game of make the other person have a nervous breakdown. I'm not sure who's winning said game, or if a winner can even be said to exist for something like this, but I do know that it's made it tougher for me to sleep at night. All I know is that the number of instances of me wanting to throttle a member of my family into unconsciousness has risen to about thrice daily.
We're sorely tempted to go see The Brothers Grimm this weekend, though Wendy is apprehensive to throw down $10 on a movie that hasn't been getting stellar reviews. I can't say I totally disagree with her, though I know that Terry Gilliam does the most be possibly can with whatever movie he's working on. We'll just have to see what is decided.

Screw you and your "financial stability"!
Heh...I mean, that's cool. Good to have money. Bummer about the family, though. I say give in. No, wait...that'd involve driving. You could always mail them anthrax or something.
And the Black Crowes? Sweet.
Yeah, I picked up the Black Crowes greatest hits CD the other day and I've been listening to it quite a bit. Good old-fashioned classicist roots rock, the likes of which there's not enough of anymore if you ask me.
