And that's why you don't teach lessons...
By popular demand, here's an update!
It's been an interesting year so far, whereas 2008 was all about keeping everything steady, 2009 has been all about change so far.
One of my bestest buddies Brian got married to his longtime girlfriend Annie (aka Anee) in a beautiful ceremony in Long Beach. It was one of the best experiences of my life. The bachelor parties were awesome; Vegas and the cruise both had memorable moments that wont be forgotten any time soon.
The wedding itself was great. They're really great for each other, they've had their ups and downs, but they managed to get through it all quite well. Brian's mom was so happy for her son at the wedding, it was really sweet. I almost teared up during the mother/son dance, but managed to maintain my composure. It certainly made me think of my mom, whom I love with all my heart, and how happy she would be if I ever tied the knot. But that's neither here nor there.
In the spirit of Brian and Annie's marriage, I quit my job at Aperture Health in March. I got the job right after college and things went well for a while. Met some great people, made some good friends, but management was retarded and it slowly started to drain any and all motivation we had to do the work. Toward Thanksgiving of last year, they started missing pay periods, and by the time I quit in March I was owed two months of back pay. I qualified for unemployment, so I've been looking for some gainful employment. I have enough time to be picky right now, but hopefully the economy picks up and people start hiring again.
Other then that, things are good. Got the Mud Run coming up in a few weeks so I've been working out a bit. Then rafting a few weeks after that so I'll be up in the Yay Area again.
That's all folks!
