Am Alive

Well this is the first post in a very long time. I tried posting before but due to pop up blockers, my post was lost and I decided to give up for that night. I have been very busy with family/friends coming into town. For some reason they all decided to come back to back for a month strait. First my aunt and uncle from KY for my bro and cousin's highschool graduation. Then family friends from IL for a vacation (one had just returned from a tour in the sandbox (Iraq) as a 1st division recon) and finally family from MO. Some of the MO people I have not seen in 6yrs and some of their kids ever. Great to be able to spend time with family.

Unfortunately I missed ribs at BJD due to the latter set. This was a great loss. I spent the time eating with and seeing those I have not in so very long but did think about the ribs I must miss. Hopefully I am not banned from ribs in the future and life will calm down to allow me to come (no family coming in that I know of for a while)

In other news, I graduated and then started classes again. My Advanced OS class conflicts completely with PF on Thurs night so I will have to miss it all summer long. I do tend to make the PPFP thanks to a 2hr break between work and class.

I also have an interview on Thurs. So hopefully I will have a full time job with money soon.

In really good news, the warranty people decided to replace my laptop (its extended warranty dies in Aug) due to damage that looks to have occurred from dropping it of which was not there when we sent it to them to be fixed. The new machine is slightly better than the old but I think I may take the money and get a new machine for a couple hundred dollars extra.

Well this post is getting long so I will call it a wrap...
