Well, today was April 22nd...one year ago today our newborn son Royce passed away.
Much like my last entry a couple of weeks ago, my viewpoint is largely the same. Except that I know that he is in a better place and that what I am feeling is selfish. I cannot say anything more other than I still miss my baby, and I always will.
I would love to tell you that now we can look forward to better things this year after the hell we have gone through this past year...but alas, that isn't the case...
Staying in line with the crappy way I am feeling, I should also announce that I am job-hunting...again. Well, the temporary position I had with Universal Tax Systems was just that, temporary. The good news is that they would hire me again next tax season, but I would really rather have a permanent position somewhere. Bridget and I were really hoping that things were going to work out and I would have been offered a permanent position at UTS. I did my best, but it clearly wasn't good enough...as it was, the tech support department was only allowed budget-wise for two or three temps to stay on at all.
Although I am happy for this guy, I also find this a great injustice and cruel irony...my bud, singer/songwriter extraordinaire Kenny Howes, just accepted a new day job with Rickenbacker, of all things! So, he is packing up and moving to sunny southern California. Talk about a dream job! We both love Rickenbackers! Like I said, I am very happy for him, but it just sucks to be me right now...! Go visit Kenny's site here to follow up on his musical endeavours.
Bridget's best friend Diane McDaniel roared into Atlanta last weekend with two friends to see Pearl Jam play here. We would have liked to go, but with the current job situation there was no way. We did get to spend time with her pre-concert, though. Sadly, though I had my digital camera, we forgot to snap any pics...that was too bad, since we have no recent photos of Bridget and Diane together...the most recent is from our wedding album! |
