Well in less than a week my cold calling paid off and got me a position better than I could have expected. It is with a local accounting firm within a mile of my apartment and is initially part time until I graduate in December and then is full time after that. The partners said that many employees have gone back to get their masters while still working (that is my plan). They weren't bothered at all by my lack of experience because I am starting during the slower season and will have a degree and some experience by the time tax season rolls around. On top of the good job they gave me $50 to take my wife (for 2 weeks now) out to dinner. I guess Red Baron and Brad were right when they said it would work out. Thanks to everybody for the advice and the encouragement. Here's a picture from my wedding.
