church was wonderful this morning. pastor taylor talked about God as our father, and how we have the perfect life in Christ offered to us and still somehow choose the world. as if anything the world offers can compare in anyway [it can't], yet we are still tempted and drawn away by its allure. sad. after church, i headed home and ate quickly before mom-in-law mom came over to do taxes with me. that took about 3 hours or so! turned out i owe about $552 to the state of maryland [thanks a lot, rhonda] but the federal government is giving us $3,550. that should cover it and pay off the remainder of our credit card debt!
once taxes were done, christin and i ate pizza to celebrate the large return, which was unexpected. we watched an episode of doctor who and relaxed together before christin headed off to bed. i decided to stay up a while longer and watch a few videos, as well as do some work on the website, which i did. i think i'm going to use squarespace for the legitimate site, because i'm having a hard time motivating myself to design something really functional and elegant for my website, and i really need to drive traffic to my videos to promote myself. yeah! so that may happen tomorrow, but probably not. here's why!
tomorrow will likely be incredibly stressful. in the morning, i've got to write and record a video for monday, as well as work a bit on my assignment which is due tomorrow night at midnight mountain time [2am here]. then i have to work a closing shift at the store and head back to finish said project in time for the deadline. doesn't sound like a whole lot to take care of, but it is to me. i'm glad i've gotten a bit of downtime since the contest ended, as it's really taken its toll on my mental status. however, i'm still a bit nervous about the results of the contest. we'll see what happens! i always say that... oh well.
