Headed out for vacation tomorrow. I will try to leave work behind (as much as possible), but with smart phones and wifi it's hard to do.  I wonder if my iPhone would skip across the ocean very well...

I've got a marathon month of music coming up staring tonight.

I've evaluated a lot of crap in my life lately and made the appropriate cuts where I needed too.  Amazing how eliminating a few negative factors from you life can really make an immediate difference.  

Pretty damn happy these days.  Waiting to hear back on a huge job opportunity, making about $20K more than I make now.  Yall keep your fingers crossed for me on that one if yall don't mind.  Would be a life changer.

Went through the Subway drive thru, and I got a free sub. Sure the one I got for free wasn't meant for me, but what the hell.

Subway drive thrus are the shit, but I love them just because in high school me and a couple friends went on a burn run and we just decided to take random roads that we had no idea where they went. We probably drove like a half hour out of the way and end up in this town called Leetsdale, that apparently just consisted of a strip mall, bank, and Subway - except we thought we were higher than possible because the Subway had a drive thru and we had never seen one before. To this day, Im not sure Ive even seen another Subway with a drive thru.

One of the roads around there that we went on also had a sign that was shaped like a stop sign but said WHOA.

Unbelievable

I got the IBM job!   Instantly almost doubled my salary.  Gonna be a life changer for me.   Last Friday could have very well been on of the best day's of my life.  I was eating some hangover aiding bbq on the way to Charlotte to see Phish.  My buddy goes to the bathroom so I decide to check my email and, there it is "Offer Letter from IBM Sent".  I lost it.  Had to get up and run out of the restaurant and call my Dad.  He retired in 2003 after working 30 years with IBM.  Needless to say, he's pretty proud.   I'm still pretty beside myself about it.  I've been miserable at my current job for well over a year.  This is exactly what I needed.  Gotta call big blue here in a little while and find out when I can start.  I've got about 2 weeks of vacation left here so I'm gonna have a nice little rest and relaxation period before the new gig starts.

Awesome, Stu!

Can i get a kickdown laptop???

I'm hoping to get one of those myself.  Even though IBM sold off their personal computer company to Lenovo, Lenovo still recognizes the IBM employee discount.
