New Beginnings
I know that I have promised to keep up with this site better in the past, and it still gets short shrift when I get busy. So I won’t promise anything, but I am writing today.
For the first time in almost 12 years, I started a new job this week. It’s going to be a hell of a challenge. It’s a big step up the food chain, and a big increase in responsibility from what I have had before. But I think this is a very good thing. I had gotten bored, and the quality of my work had shown it.
I can certainly say that in my first week, I am not bored. 
All of the normal small office stereotypes are here… geeks, tremendously talented folks, and some that make me want to slit my wrists. Ok… only one that makes me want to slit my wrists. I’ve already nicknamed them “Kyrptonite.”
It’s also interesting in that while I’m going off on this new adventure, my girlfriend is in the Caribbean, and my parents are in London. It’s been a very non-standard week. My dogs are, as usual, hyperactive and seemingly on speed. And on top of that, it’s been a heinous week on the stock market. Heaping helpings of suck on toast.
I have posted several pictures to Flickr in the past month, and I have some from Las Vegas that I will be putting up soon.
Glad to hear you’re enjoying your new job. I hope david is giving you all kinds of grief. Although I doubt he can make up for me not being around. Stock market is doing crappy? Sounds like a good time to buy!
Good to hear from you, Kevin, I hope things are going well in Austin.
The Spurs suck, and David says to “Cram it.”
Do you want to retract that “Spurs suck” comment?!?
No, not really.
Them are fightin’ words buddy!
