I moved to Cedar Park, just NW of Austin, in August, so the kids could start the new school year here and get out of the Waco school district. I'm also getting some work doing headshots for actor and model portfolios - and later this week will work as an extra on a movie, and hopefully meet many future clients.

Congratulations. The opportunities sound wonderful, and you are so talented, I know you'll be in demand. I always loved the Austin area, and hope you will too. My daughter will graduate in '05, then I'm out of here too. Meantime, I'm plugging away at an associate's degree so I can support myself before the child support and alimony dry up. I'll probably head to the far northern Dallas suburbs where I have family, but I think I'll miss the slow paced way of life here.
