Relaxing

Yesterday was Friday, so that meant another night meeting up with friends by my old Redcats office. I meet up with a bunch of people at Blaggards and hung out. It was Stanley’s birthday. There was a nice turn out. Luke was out of course. Jeannette, Vanessa, Herbie, Ben, & others also came out. I lost count of how much I spent. I think we had an obscene amount of shots, but I don’t fully recall. I don’t normally do that. Below is a before and after shot of one round.

I had a really good time in spite of my neck killing me again. Last month if you asked if alcohol would stop the sharp pain in my neck I would say no since I tried. Last night it must have been the Jameson shots because the pain went away. It is back again now, but I felt great last night! I now look forward to a restful weekend.

Just a note on the photos. I only had one, and it was for Stanley’s birthday so we kind of had to do a round. We had a nice turn out!

Settling in at Work

I am starting to settle in at work a bit. It will still be a while before I am fully acclimated, but I can at least open my mouth in a few meetings now and have intelligent answers. It is nice to be productive.

Out With Friends

The first week at work was interesting. I was glad to get out for a few quick drinks at Blaggards with some friends. I meet Luke, & Stanley there. After a while a bunch of old friends from Redcats showed up. We talked and hung out for a while. I didn’t want to stay out late so I was home by 9 ish. Sounds kind of early but when you start at 5ish it isn’t.

I am adding cheesy yet addictive 80’s music to my iphone for my commute tomorrow!

The New Job (Again), Day 1

Today was my first day at my new new job. As new days go this was a non event. I didn’t have orientation until 11. Then I went to my office. By the time I got there it was almost 2:30. I spent the day meeting people and just setting up stuff.

Less Than 24 Hours In AC

I went down to Atlantic City for John’s bachelor party yesterday. It was fun. I didn’t do anything crazy since I wasn’t feeling 100%. I got down there early so I had time to get a massage before we headed for probibly one of the most expensive steak dinners I have ever eaten. It was dam good though. After dinner we played a poker tournament. Out of 10 guys I ended up in like 5th place. I didn’t win anything but after having crap cards all night I was surprised to do as well as I did. I ended up heading off to bed around 1AM, right when everyone was about to head out to play the tables. I have the new job starting tomorrow and my parents coming over later so I wanted to leave for home early. I got up at 6:45AM to drive back. Overall it was a hectic trip to get out there and back in less than 24 hours but worth the trip.

Now my parents are coming over for some dinner. I think they want to wish me well before the new job.

I am waiting on the street since there is some sort of fire incident in my office building.
