Work, Love and the FBI
Ahhh...so much and so little time. I've been wrapping things up and getting ready to start work on Monday. I am extremely excited to get started, I think it'll be a great job. My only real concern is going to be the commute. It's going to be extremely long and eat up about four hours of my day (on top of actually working). What'll prolly happen is I will move closer to a local commuter rail, that'll atleast shave off a good 30 minutes from my commute. The worst part is going to be the insanely early morning hours. If you know me at all, you know I hate getting up early...and now I have no way to escape it. :)
Things with Laura and I are incredible and only getting better. There's a connection between the two of us that I have never shared with anyone else before. It's just seems like we are on the same page, at the same place and looking for the same things (which always makes things easier). We've actually talked about moving in together a couple times. I figure you just have to follow your heart...besides...life's short.
I've rescheduled the FBI Phase I test...I've got to take the next one or I am out of the running. I've been on a big internal debate about the whole thing. Half of me is excited to go and it's what I want...the other side of me is a little hesitant about the whole thought. I mean, the pay and benefits are amazing...pensions and retirement and all that stuff. But it requires a lot of work and I dunno if I want to make such a big commitment to a job. My concern is how it will affect my future family life. I don't want to be the Dad that's never home and misses my children growing up. So I have decided that I am going to still go for it....because if I do get in...nothing says that I have to stay for life.
Well...that's about it for now!
