I don't get to sleep-in ever since I started doing the choir here. Church is at 10 and I like to get there early to warm-up my voice. I usually wake up around 8:30 but not being able to sleep in doesn't bother me. It's better than waking up at 7:30, which is my normal wake up call the other 6 days of the week. Plus, it is a good way to start my day. Sleeping in is nice, but usually leaves me feeling very lazy and unmotivated to do anything. After church today, I walked to the PX and bought some frozen meals to heat up in my room and a few other odds and ends. Then, I cleaned my side of the Chu. I vacuumed and re-organized and put up new air fresheners.
Then I spent a few hours and went over the 60 something cards I got from Mrs. Haskins 7th grade class. Matt goes to church with her, and apparently she was very touched by our story and had all her students send me cards. I loved it. I loved reading every single one of them. So I wrote them back and I answered the questions that some of them asked me. I'm waiting to send all the note until I buy my camera next month. I'd love to include pictures of where I work, what my Chu looks like and so on.... Yes, I know. They need to be put on here and on facebook. I promise, I as soon as I get that camera I'll be putting all kinds of pictures up!
I finally broke open the Masterpiece Theatre version of Pride and Prejudice. I'm loving it. I'm trying to only watch a little bit at a time, but its hard to pace myself.
So a lot of exciting things are happening for Matt in LA. Like, SUPER exciting things. He's signed with two agents. One will represent him for Commercial jobs only, the other will represent him for Film and Television. He has an audition for Groundlings, which is a very reputable improv school/performing arts center thing that a ton of SNL veterans have gone through. So if he can put that training on his resume, it's going to look very good. He's also made a lot of big connections with important people and everything seems to be going so smooth, I couldn't be happier. But I'm curious what God has in store. More than anything, we both want to end up back in Cincinnati. We would be just fine living close to our families with Matt working at one of the sites for Crossroads, or something like that. Sometimes, I think that LA is too glamorous and too far away from everything that I've ever known and every one that I love. The prospect of Matt making a lot of money in LA doesn't outweigh the homesickness for Cincinnati/Louisville. On the other hand, I do love a good adventure. And anywhere Matt is, that is home.
OH! One more thing. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAD! Yep, its my dads 52 birthday! He might be half a century old + 2 years, but he's a kid at heart! LOVE YOU DAD!
He's the one cheesin' next to me! And those are my grandparents, who are in their 70's and looking just as fabulous as ever. The Earley's age well :)
