Welcome to DINK-land
Matt started a part-time job today. We’re practically a couple of DINKs. Somebody save us! Please!
The good news of all of this DINK-ness is that we’re a step closer to completing our 3-year plan. With any luck, Matt’s paychecks will go entirely toward two “little” vacations I’d like to take, and savings.
We just have to decide which vacation to take first.
Also on the 3-year plan are:
1. Finish Matt’s thesis
2. Find Matt’s “real job”
3. Buy a house
4. Quit Amy’s job
5. Start our family.
In the mean time, we’ll continue plugging away at our jobs and Matt will continue to slave away over his thesis and his resume and we’ll say some prayers. In the end, it will all work out the way it’s supposed to. Whether it’s the way we think we want or not, we’ll just have to wait & see.
In other news, a girl at work, who has been trying to get pregnant for a few years, told us that she’s expecting and due in April. Say some prayers for her & her baby, as she has potential to have a high risk pregnancy.

Join the Air Force, no I am serious. The Air Force is really looking for EEs. After you get your degree you can enroll in the Officer Training School and, after basic training(which in the Air Force isn’t all that bad compared to Marines/Army) you go to 14 weeks of Officer Training School. After that you are a commisioned officer. Someone with your qualifications could basicaly get onto whatever base you wanted to(provided they needed you there), anywhere in the US, you could go to Italy or japan if you really wanted to.
You get 1 month paid vacation, great health benefits, and provided you are flexible in travelling, free travel anywhere the air force goes.
No I am not a recruiter, but it is something you should look into.
