The New Job (Again), Day 1

by

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

by

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.

Dinner With Morgan And A Screaming 2 Year Old

by

I meet up with my sister near my parents house tonight to go for dinner. Carrie, Morgan, & Zachary are staying over at my parents from Monday until tomorrow. Since I didn’t see them while they were in PA this weekend I decided to head out to Bayside for some dinner. My parents were going to a show with friends so they were a no show.

I was surprised when I got picked up at the train to see my dad in the car with my sister. It turns out that my parents hadn’t needed to leave yet, and apparently my nephew didn’t really want to goto dinner without his Poppy. For a little guy of 2 he really lets you know when he doesn’t like something. Hoping to avert a meltdown my dad rode in the car to the restaurant (we went to Jackson Whole) and my mom picked him up there. Well, we may have delayed the meltdown but when my dad left Zach was not so happy. I think everyone in a 2 mile radius knew he wasn’t happy. My sister had to take him outside for a while. That at least gave me time to hang out with Morgan. I can’t believe she starts Kindergarden next week.

I can forgive Zach being loud, because hey he is my nephew. What I cannot forgive is he didn’t give me a hug goodbye, or even a high five. I even tried for a low five, and got nothing. Like he is going to get sugar or chocolate when my sister isn’t looking now. OK, maybe he will anyway but I won’t be happy about it.

I at least got a rid home. And to top off the evening I was able to snag my dad’s Garmen GPS for my trip next weekend.

Hanging Out Again

by

Friday night I went out and meet up with Luke, Ben, Stanley & others. It wasn’t a late night, but I was out 3 of the 4 past nights. I am not normally that self destructive and go out that many nights in a row. It takes its tole on me. I didn’t sleep that well last night, but that was surprising only because I didn’t drink allot.

I meet up with Luke and Jeanette at Windfall. Stanley swung by for a few rounds. Then we headed off to Blaggards and meet up with a bunch of other people from my old job. We hung out there for a while before I called it a night. With the exception of the past two weeks I hadn’t been out allot in August so it was nice getting out and hanging with friends.
