www.badgerbadgerbadger.com for good ol times. Christ, I haven't been to that site in ages. Like years and years. It's even more ridiculous than "the end of the world.swf"

Thank you wikipedia for helping make my day.

Grad party

Down to CT for the weekend for Erin's grad party. It was either Maine or CT. I chose CT because I had a sneaking suspicion Maine wouldn't be to great. I was right. Maine got hit with some major storms. I would have loved to see it but it would not have been very fun on the beach. It was 95 and muggy. Not ideal beach weather. Then a freak storm rolls in and lightning strikes twice. Knocks a couple of trees down in the common area. What a crazy weekend my parents must have had!

In the mean time, I was in CT chatting it up with the extended fam. Got talking to Mike about moving out of the Shrew. Then somehow it lead onto kickball. (I need to find some league in Worcester, it'd be a riot.) Bum ankle won't allow me to play now though. Ugh. Another story for another day... So anyways I write in this blog 3 months later because I click on a link on SI (Hot Clicks)...

when you're done





...and I run into Mike's blog.


Things are meant to happen in such a way. I go to Maine I don't talk to Mike, I probably don't click on SI.com's page @ 12:45 therefore never seeing Mike's blog therefore never writing this post in my blog. Heh.

Goodnight.

End of the year

End of the school year. Shenanigans. One year ago I was in this same position. It was the end of the school year. But it was different. I was graduating. Now I am working. What a difference a year makes. Do I miss it? Kind of. But not the school stuff as much. I made some great friends during my 4 years. Well worth it and well worth staying @ school. Some thing you will never forget.

Now I work the Helpdesk. I enjoy the atmosphere and the people I work with. Teaching the new students and accomplishing what I have here is amazing. I love to learn and this is a great place to do it.
