I figured wrong

So its been a productive few days lately for me. I guess having the lady on vacation with her family in HI does wonders for my free time. Amazing how that actually works out for me, although it does make sense when you think about it, since we normally only get a few days a week together due to schedules.

Obviously things with the lady are going well right now. Aside from her being on vacation when I am not, especially since she is somewhere nice, whereas it snowed today in MN. Still we are trying to figure out a way to take a vacation somewhere in about a month or so. I figure the details will probably get closer to nailed down when she is back in town.

In the meantime I have started hitting the gym again since I will have over a week to make it into a real habit. As you can see from the picture over yonder (which is clickable to get a bigger picture) I have been hitting it hard and it feels good. The next day after that I went even a little further. I would probably be there right now finishing up the workout if I hadn’t decided that I need a rest day. Instead my new plan is to take care of business tonight and give my legs a rest and then hit it like a sledgehammer again tomorrow morning. The whole gym thing is actually pretty awesome and rankly I am loving it right now. Just need to make it a habit.

Work is never pleasant but I did manage to get a project off the ground and started today (official roll out on Monday) and that always look good, particularly on a resume. Its the shit like that, when it goes well, keeps me going. The general plan is to be looking for a job (again) in Q2 since thats when the company will be opening up positions. I would ultimately like to stay within the company since I have some investments there, primarily in the amount of time off I get every year. That said, for the right opportunity, particularly something I am interested in, I would leave. That said, none of that is what i am going to tell my new manager this year. Just see what rolls out and cross my fingers.

The good news for me is that my social life has been picking up slowly but surely again. Got plans to meet some buddies next week that I haven’t seen in a while and setting up some more plans with another friend for next week. Its just a matter of reconnecting really but dang does it feel good after the train wreck that the end of the year always seems to be. The other good news is that I have some plane tickets so I am headed to CO in August. Taking my normal trip to WI and pushing it back a week or two and adding a flight. Works for me!

Other then that there isn’t a ton going on right now and I love it.

But I fucking hate how slow the newest firefox is for me. I am rapidly becoming a computer curmudgeon. Everything was better somewhere between 2 and 10 versions ago.
