It's been a while
Since I haven't updated my journal in a while - now seemed like as good a time as any. I've spend the passed two weeks pretty sick, but whatever I had seems to be fading at last. Unfortunately not before I passed it on to Laura, and now she's in a pretty bad shape. She has an antibiotic now and I'm sure she'll be feeling much better in a couple of days. Things in my life are pretty calm although people around me are falling ill. My sister had been having severe pains ever since my nephew was born, and she finally got it checked out. They diagnosed her with some impressive gallstones, and told her that her gall bladder would rupture if they didn't remove it. So, early next week she'll be going in to have that taken care of - everything should go fine, but I'm still pretty nervous about it. Having to be the strong one all the time isn't very easy, but if I showed her or my parents I was worried I know they would start shitting bricks.
I met with my boss a few days ago and discussed training and certifications. He wants me to start planning to go for whatever training I need for my MCSE - a certification that would make me a candidate for jobs earning twice as much or more. It's a lot of work, and a lot of testing - it would probably take me a good 6 months to complete everything. But after I have that in my toolkit, getting a job as a network engineer should be a snap! In NYC those guys start at about $150,000. Here's hoping!
That's really about it. Since I've spent more than half of the last two months sick, I haven't made it to the gym much. Without playing r-ball or working out I've started feel a little down... probably because I've gained a little weight. Nothing that's hard to take off - but it still makes me sad. As soon as I feel back to 100% I'll be back on the court and feeling great again.
So, until next time. Take care everyone!
