A note from Seth

Blogging...hmmm. It seems that no matter what I do or how I try to adapt, I am always falling behind the times. Got a cell phone years after everyone else was using them, got a smart phone years after everyone was using them, learned how to text years late, finally got a Facebook account and now we are all moving to blogging. Ahhhh... Whatever. So school started and I am already fed-up with it. Not so much it as the people who go there. At our community college there are about 22,000 students that attend there (literaly). Its so busy in the morning that we have police directing traffic on campus, just so that you can get to the parking lot where you will find exactly 0 spaces to park. Once you arrive in class it is filled with a bunch of snot-nosed little punks with 0 life experience and loud mouths full of exactly 0 knowledge or wisdom. The things that comes out of these kids mouths makes me doubt humanity as a whole. I spoke with my friend Jeremy Bishop to day who said something very interesting and I quote, " America, the land of the spoiled brats who think they already know averything." Thanks Jeremy, How true it is. I sit in class and wonder... 'what am I doing here?' I am forced to take the lamest classes, due to CA's flawed school system. On that note, CA has by far the stupidest most unreasonable laws out of any state or country for that matter. I cant get a job here because I wasnt certified in CA, they wont take my credits because they are this or that accreditation, wow. Now we are looking for jobs and I am waiting on the VA to start paying me my education money, which so are like a million other people out there. So the bank account continues to dwindle with each days passing.
Ok well aside from all that... Life is great.
No really, it is. Things are going great in the household. Sarah and I are adapting to the constant presence of each other and actually handling it very well;) She has handled the whole move so well and has truely impressed me with her mature attitude toward it all. We have a great roommate, seems to be working out very well so far. The dogs are healthy and loving SD as am I. I have yet to go surfing, since I have had such a full plate as of late, but plan to get out there asap.
We went to a dueling piano bar the other night with my brother Adam, his wife Helen and my cousins Lacey and Brandon. It was spectacular. We loved it. Sarah is amazing, she downed a shot of whiskey before anyone else at the table. What a trooper, what a wife. She continues to impress me each day with her little quips also.
I have been hitting the gym about 4 times a week with Kyle (roommate) and it seems to be going well. Sarah has been working out at the apartment gym and seems to like it ok. Sarah and I played raquetball the other day... it was a lot of fun. Sarah is a natural. She tends to shy away if the ball is hit real hard, but she will catch on soon enough.
Sarah has a possible job offer as a nanny. She has an interview this week with the people, so hopefully all goes well and we can stop worrying about money quite so much. I keep sending in applications, to no avail, but I will press on.
We truely miss all our friends in VA and UT. We hope to see them all so soon. They all seem to be doing very well and everyone seems to be getting pregnant these days, must be the weather out there. Good thing we are safe in CA.
Well, till next time. Take care and stay safe.
