Weekends Rule when you have a job.

Oh yeah, did I mention that I GOT A JOB!!! YAY!!!!! I'm now employed at http://www.discoverconsole.com and am pretty stoked to be working again. Its a trip cuz I'm working with some pretty young guys, but they appear to know what they're doing and stuff so its all good. I'm actually trying to pass on my love of coding, even in the face of a start-up environment (low wages, long hours, someone elses crappy code etc.). I told a few of them about those days/times I have when I'm working on some code and I stop and realize how killer it is that people pay me to do what I do because I love it that much... even when its a total pain in the arse and I'm bitching about how Microsoft or Vendor X should have done this or that with their SDK or bla bla bla. I was really freaking being out of work for as long as I was because if I had to change careers, I can't imagine what else I'd do!
Well, its getting time to go eat some breakfast. I'm going to try to keep this more up to date, but with work @ the 'day job' and work on the web site I'm trying to build on the side, I don't exactly have lots of free time.
So... ok, guess I'll type at'cha later.

The Dead shows and stuff

Well, its been some time since I've blogged and I'm kinda bugged about that. eh, whatever, I'm doing it now right?

Ok, so on June 24th, I got to see the Dead @ Irvine Meadows (I'm NOT calling it by its bought name cuz f that) thanks to a VERY KIND friend of mine. Thanks to the same friend, and the fact that even though I was out of work, the wife allowed us to fly up to the Seattle house over the July 4th weekend, I also saw the Gorge show on 7/3! Got a very cool T-Shirt and everything. The shows were KILLER and in fact, I believe I'm supposed to be getting the CDs any time now.

Oh, and I got a job. ...YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!!!
