You have to dress up for work?
jason - 01/31/08 19:28
You look tired in this photo. You have had a long week. I'm jealous that you actually get to wear normal clothes to work.

Frickin lame, spent another hour today fixing IE6 stuff.

Just so ugly and what a waste of time.

Glad to be home working today :P
Just as well I was at Roswell on Monday, it means I can hide inside today and work from home on my other project.

Now, just hoping the power stays up!

All Good Things
Category: work
Well, I found out I have a full time contract position for almost twice as much money as I'm making now, not part time like I'd thought in my last post about buying a house.

Good news: I have a new awesome job doing Ruby stuff all day!

Bad news: I am abandoning everyone at Roswell :(

Fixed my insensitivity. If you weren't off sick I woulda remembered...
jim - 01/29/08 16:18
Thanks to you and Paul of course, I should forget.

You guys at Roswell will find some really awesome programmer to replace me, don't worry. You'll end up glad I'm gone :)

The American Dream
Category: life
I want to buy a house so freaking bad.

I just found out I am going from 20 hours a week to 30 hours a week for one of my contracts, which is an extra huge chunk of money every month, and so home ownership this year is looking like a great possibility. It also seems like I'll be staying in Buffalo for a few years at least, if James can get a job around here too.

I can't wait to move back closer to or into Allentown. Seriously sick of the Elmwood Village - I miss the grime and dirt!

Grime and Dirt? I think you meant Culture and Class! :) Congrats on the new job!
