Lately I've had an excuse for not posting that much, well I always have an excuse, but this one is a little bit better than " I just haven't gotten around to it.".
Mid-October I got a seasonal job at a local KB Toys. This was like letting me loose in a toy store, 'cause, well, it is a toy store. One of the things I get to do is open all the boxes we get each week to price they toys. And while that may not sound too exciting, just imagine being in a room FILLED with boxes of toys, and tearing to them to see what you have. It's like x-mas every week! Of course it's a x-mas where most of the toys weren't what you asked for, are a couple years out of date, and most are cheap crap, but it's still opening boxes of toys! Toys you can't keep.
On top of that I finally got word back from a wedding photography/videography company about a potential editing job. They had asked me to edit together a 15 minute sample using some footage from a recent wedding they had shot. They liked what I did, so now I get to finish up that wedding video, and they'll be giving me more.
Also, about two weeks back (and not even two weeks into my job there) my manager from KB called to A. tell me that our store is being closed by January (bummer), and B. ask me if I would like to be an assistant manager until we close (not bad). I said sure thing, and promptly got tons more hours, and a pay increase. That's not too bad after only 6 actual work days.
So this week I need to finish up the first wedding video between working 38 hours at KB. Not that hard, but time consuming.

Congratulations again! It must be nice to be doing work in your area of expertise...which I guess could pertain to either job you have. You are an expert in both movies and toys after all.
