A Serious Man

I could probably make this post on my Old Ticket Stubs blog, but then I'd be talking about the movie called A Serious Man. Lately, my life's taken a huge step forward in evolution--I think. About a month ago, I crazily turned in my 3 ½ week-notice at WLEX-TV before I found a job in Louisville. Heather and I'd been married four months at that point and I thought it was high time I got my ass outta Dodge. The day after that, Heather gets laid off from Sts. Mary & Elizabeth. So by the end of March, at that moment, we were both going to be unemployed. Rather than worry, we were given the strength by God to laugh it off. If one of us was crazy enough to take the plunge and trust our unemployment to Him, why not both of us? Since when did God say He'd only take care of one of us?

So we just continued with our plan for me to move up here and be a husband and a servant at our church--among other things which are sure to come, I'm sure. A lot of people wanted us to reconsider our situation and wanted me to take back my notice. Not a chance. Before my 3 ½ weeks were up, Heather already had another job and she's still there. There's even a good possibility that she'll stay there. Two weeks to the day after I moved up, I started a new job--one that was right up my alley and, in many ways, an extension of my last job. That is f*cking CRAZY!

I've got one thing to say to the world: THE BIBLE IS NOT A JOKE! Why don't more people try it? Why was my default setting set to "Play It Safe" when it came to figuring out whether or not I should quit WLEX? A big thanks to all my spiritual mentors/family for helping me sort that out.
