So a lot has been happening lately. Work has picked up and I finally have the position I have wanted for months now. I still do IT for the campus but I am staff so I get the bigger paycheck and respect that comes with full time employment. Hopefully someday I will be able to get a better company PC so I will be able to better assist my users…

The advancement of my job and the eminent loss of my transportation has created not only the need but the desire to purchase another means of moving one’s self from one locale to another. My initial idea and still future plan is to buy a motorcycle. Some pros of owning a motorcycle are; it would be easy on gas, I don’t have to drive people places, and I get to look cool while riding. the only con I can come up with is death or severe injury, so I figure I should wait on the motorcycle until my insurance kicks in. So instead, I bought a standard manually operated bike; with all the gear it cost me about 1 grand and has all the features I figure are important for commuting in CA. I also figured this was a good purchase knowing that I am trying to loose another 20 pounds and the added cardio will only make the weight drop faster.

Speaking about my weight, I have been growing my beard as incentive to lose my weight… I have some pics up on my facebook so my friends can see how ridiculous I look with a beard… I may post a pic here later if you guys really want to see me. I like to think I am in some kind of training for when I get my motorcycle and will be expected to have some amount of facial hair to be considered hard enough to hang out in biker bars…

The important thing is that every day I am feeling better about everything. I feel more fit at this moment than I have for a long time, I have a girl that I am interested in and will see where that goes, I have a well paying job that respects my knowledge and experience, I “live” in a house and will someday actually be settled there… oh yeah and I am getting Little Big Planet soon and I am really expecting big things with that.

So yeah, this was just a quick note to say hello and let you all revel in the inner workings of my current life.

Ciao!
