Job update
I had a phone interview on Wednesday…I think it went very well and I anticipate getting invited for an in-person interview soon.
I’m Batman!
Not really…but I’ve had a quote from Batman Begins nagging at me for the last few weeks. “…it’s not who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you.”
Sick…
I had a great start to the week…I spent the weekend in Indianapolis at Showdown LAN with some people who turned out to be really cool. I followed that up by coming back and getting a gym membership on Monday, then working out both Monday night and Tuesday night. Last night I had my body…
LANing it up…
but only as a spectator. I was invited to carpool with one of the CAL admins to Showdown LAN in Indianapolis this weekend…it’s kind of last minute, but I don’t have Daniel this weekend and I’m trying to make it work. I’m also trying to make arrangements to attend the Winter CPL event in Dallas…December…
Whirlwind week
As previously mentioned, I spent last weekend with some of my high school friends. Five of us left Salem on Friday, heading for the Current River in southern Missouri. We spent two days on the river, traveling 36 miles in all, and camped on the river bank Saturday night. I was pretty worried about my…
Labor Day weekend update
I’ve had several times when I thought “I should blog that” in the past week, but I just never took the time to sit down. Last week, I made Pink Vodka Sauce, grilled chicken, and chocolate chip cookies for dinner with Josh G., Kelly, Ashlyn, Daniel, and Josh H. I think it all turned out…
“I’m not that crazy”
Overheard at work today: “I applied for sysadmin jobs in Qatar, Iraq, Iran, Sudan, <long list of other Middle Eastern/warzone countries>. They had one open in D.C., but I didn’t apply for it. I’m not that crazy.” I laughed a lot. 🙂
*shudder*
I just got the sudden chill and shudder associated with…something. I never really know what happens, but I get this feeling that I should be remembering something from the past. It makes me feel sick to my stomach, gives me the chills, and makes me shudder. It doesn’t happen that often, but when it does,…
A late return
I got back about an hour ago from a rather busy weekend. I visited my grandparents in Carbondale Thursday/Friday, visited my parents in Salem Friday/Saturday, had a family reunion on Saturday, and drove back so that I could make it to church. I also put together my résumé and cover letter for a CITES job…
Quarter-life crisis
I think this is the first blog post that I haven’t written in a “comfortable” place…my desk at work, my desk at home, “my” room at my grandparents’ house. I’ts 4:42am, Saturday, August 4th and I’m currently sitting in Merry Ann’s Diner, taking advantage of their free wireless. When I came in, there were two…
