Life in "the big city"

I guess I'm back in Oklahoma City for the rest of the summer before I take off in July. Besides the huge lack of sidewalks around here, things are going really well. I've got a job that will pay cash at OKC Rocks, and they are also going to buy my climbing wall off of me. Now kids, I call that, "Killing 2 birds with 1 stone." Besides that, I'll also work at the zoo ampitheatre whenever I can. ...So that covers the subject of work. The great thing is, I'll still have a lot of free time.
What am I doing with my free time? Well, I almost have all of my parents gardens planted (which is no small task. There are 4 large beds.) Besides that, I've been listening to a lot of the White Stripes, trying to edit to learn how to work Final Cut Pro to edit my video from my new video camera (any ideas?), and waiting for my Peace Corps invitation. There are 4 steps to becoming a PCV (Peace Corps Volunteer): 1. apply 2. get nominated 3. extensive medical paperwork/processing 4. recieve invitation. I should be recieving the invitation any day now. Once that gets here I'll know much more about my status, like the actual day I leave, where I will be going (besides just Africa), if I will have electricity (I'm betting I won't), and what work I'll be doing (besides just business).
Other than that, I'm just waiting for the pool painters to finish up my parents pool so that I can spend the rest of my summer in there. Hahah... you should see it. They had to sand blast the old paint off of it, so now there is sand everywhere in our backyard. It looks like it snowed. haha. Actually, now we have a beach to go with our pool. Seriously, there is a ton of sand back there. I guess it's just the amount of sand needed for 2 days of sand blasting.
Well, this probably hasn't been the most exciting post, but the whole point is to keep you updated on life, right? ...so there it is. Life is beautiful, and there isn't much else to say.
Till later, Adyos.
