Rebel in residence, Mr. *mountaintrout has a cause he believes in. which. is. AWESOME!


Enjoying the lovely spring weather? I SURE AM!!! We had 90’s for 4 days (that’s like 33 degrees C for you Europeans) and it was lush. I was sunburned, and I liked it. ^^ And yeah, I’m peeling now. But still ^^. Its back to rainy and 60’s (17 or so C) but that hot blast was much appreciated.

A few items……

Matt is still job hunting. :S He has one interview, the very first interview so far, for a position in a department that deals online accounts, in a customer service capacity. And I see no real reason why he would NOT get it. Unless there is some crazy good, experienced, super excited freak out there would thrives on giving amazing customer service or something. <.< , Could happen. This would work for him for the time being. So if you pray, please pray! Our finances are shot at this point. Not going into debt, but not real far from it…. which leads me to….



SUB TIME!!!!!!
I need a sub. The last one I had I subbed myself for only 3 months, and that’s soon running out. I have not been sub-less since September of 2005!! It’s a scary thought, innit?? Anyone who wants to help, I will offer to write for you. I’m not talking term papers, but any piece of creative writing you should so desire. That’s all I have to offer!



My little boys are getting giant. Ethan is almost done with Kindergarten. His teacher told me she’s really seen him maturing since the beginning of the year! That’s amazing to me. I can see it too, he’s really turning into a good boy. And he’s reading above grade level!! Smart like his mommy. Mark is still trying to get away with murder, and using his beautiful little face and cuddly nature to worm out of trouble all the time. :\ He knows he’s cute. He knows I like how he’s sweet and cuddly. And the little sh1t uses that advantage! He’s smart too, but stubborn. Needs to work on number recognition over the summer. He can count, but not recognize a lot of numbers yet. Which is fine, he’s only 4.



I’m en vacanza the last week of May. ^^ Not going anywhere really, but Matt’s lovely parents are coming from England for a visit. Which will be fun! It’s a shame I really enjoy my in-laws and they live about 3,000 miles away. So that will be fun.



A trip to Illinois is pending for August Haven’t been “home” in over 2 years, should be interesting. Thanks to Face Book I will be meeting up with friends I haven’t seen in YEARS AND YEARS!!!! As well as cousins I was very close to while growing up. I’m excited for once about going! Usually it gives me the creeps.




Merantau is screening 3 times on May 13th and 3 times on May 15th to potential distributors!! We're fucking excited. This is the film Matt worked on the last 6 months in Indonesia. Here is the trailor:
