waiting on the world to change

Two weeks ago, Jessica and I came back to Huntington in the hopes that we would be able to find jobs to start working and to start saving money.  Let's look at what's been going on thus far:

Jess has had two interviews.  The first was at Maurice's in Huntington.  This job looks somewhat promising.  The only thing holding her back from the job is the fact that she can't make a 6-month commitment.  Her second interview was at Victoria's Secret this past Saturday.  Both places have called her references (we know this because one of them is our friend Bob, and he's told us about them).  Both places are looking hopeful.

Now, for my job story...

Nothing.  I've applied at about 15 different places and called around 30.  No one is hiring except Lowe's.  That's the only lead I've got right now.  I had two interviews at Logan's Roadhouse, but at the second interview, they told me that my hours were not what they needed.  I'm still jobless, penniless, and in a bit of an emotional slump.  I need a job not only to pay my bills (which are coming up fast), but also to keep my sanity.

In the meantime, I've played a lot of Nintendo Wii.  I beat Super Mario Galaxy and am a little more than halfway done with LEGO Star Wars:  The Complete Saga.  I'm bored out of my mind and my trust in the LORD falters now and then.  I know He's going to provide.  I've just got to let go of my desire to have the money in the bank three weeks before the bills are due.  It'll come when I need it to.  It's just hard to be trusting when you're in the crunch.
