8.365

Alright, so hopefully I should have a couple interviews early next week. I'll let yall know how they go when I know.

On to better things. I just finished packing a bag for the weekend with Terra. Definitely looking forward to it. Got a few movies, phone charger, phone, laptop with charger, etc. etc. etc.. Been quite a while since I went up there and visited her and her family.

Also talked with a few old friends today. I may have a roommate if I want to move out in the next month or two. Would be to an apartment at $350 a month, all bills included, and I'd have to figure something out for phone, car insurance, internet, etc. but it may be worth it.

It's a bit of a drive from UTD or anything I've known for a while, but not too bad. Just off of Abrams and Park. Looked at an apartment, two bedroom, two bath, and it looks pretty nice.

Well, with that, I have to get back to watching Burn Notice and make sure I have everything for my trip this weekend. Until tomorrow...

All the best,

Eric Prince

More job hunting today, more of the same story. Not much to tell.

But I did bump into a few friends today as well. It was good to sit down and talk to them. Also stopped off with one of them and picked up a few books they recommend that I read. One by C.S. Lewis called "Mere Christianity" and another by a pair of brothers called "Do Hard Things".

Looking forward to reading those, as well as finishing up the political reading before I start writing. Still haven't gotten that blog back from my friend, so I will be hounding him until he gets it back to me.

Well, in other news, I will be going down to Mabank this weekend to spend some time with Terra and her family. Been a while since I've done that. Definitely looking forward to it.

With that, another very short post, I leave you until tomorrow.

All the best,

"Economic control is not merely control of a sector of human life which can be separated from the rest; it is the control of the means for all our ends. And whoever has sole control of the means must also determine which ends are to be served, which values are to be rated higher and which lower--in short, what men should believe and strive for." - F.A. Hayek

More job hunting. Went well for a friend of mine that I went with. He has an interview scheduled for Thursday. I filled out a bunch of apps, filled out a couple online, but nothing yet. I'll be calling places over the next few days. Looks so far like I may get a full time job at a racetrac or qt or something similar. Hopefully get some good pay, put some money in the bank, and maybe get an apartment in the next month or two.

In other news, the Jeep ran really well today. Everything felt in tip top shape. Hopefully that continues to be the case (knocking on wood as I type this). Have a lot to do on it over the next few months, but should be good. And I have started to make plans to build a dunebuggy with a friend of mine. Could be a cool project if we do it right.

Well, what else, other than that not much is going on. More and more job hunting is about all that I can say. And I won't be posting much about that on here until I have good news.

Well, though this post is rather short, I guess I'll leave it at that for tonight.

All the best,

Eric Prince

"Property is a natural right given to us by our creator. This property, however, has one limit: one may not own another person's life. Beyond that, a peaceable person should have the right to own anything. Wrongfully using those potential pieces of property, however, is another matter entirely." - me
