Random Drivel

I am now the Facilities Maintenance Team Leader, or, the manager in charge of the Facilities mechanics, at work. Role transition with the previous Team Leader starts, well, today really. I’ve been working for almost two years now, since graduating in May ‘06. This new job will be good for my development, so we’ll see where it takes me.

Wow, Facebook. Maybe you should try to chill out a little bit…

Here’s a screenshot of the application requests (38 at latest count) I have right now on facebook, or at least the ones that I haven’t deleted yet. I wonder if I can make it to 100?

She doesn’t exist until she’s been photographed!

Picked her up today, and rode her out to the freeway and back. Clocked 53 miles already today. I’ll hit that 600 mile service before you know it! Photographic evidence:

I bought a new motorcycle today. A 2007 Honda VTX1300c. I went down to the local dealership, negotiated a good price on it, and put a down payment. They’ve gotta dealer-prep it, so I wont get it until tomorrow. When I get it, I’ll put pictures up. I’m excited!

I was thinking about this the other day. I haven’t posted to this blog in almost a year. A lot has happened since last year, too. Well lets see, what are the highlights:

• March 2007: Visited San Salvador, El Salvador, and my family for a week
• April 2007: Work retreat at Pismo Beach, California
• July 2007: Turned 24, vacation for a week in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
• August 2007: Rode my motorcycle to Las Vegas, Nevada in the 110° heat, won $1200!
• September 2007: RHIT Homecoming in Terre Haute, Indiana
• New Years 2008: Las Vegas, Nevada! Hundreds of thousands of people partying on the Strip
• February 2008: Saw my parents in Irvine/Laguna Beach, California when they flew into town for a wedding
• March 2008: Went back to Mobile, Alabama for Danielle’s wedding, got to see Melissa, Danielle, Jamie, Melissa again, although I missed a few people. I guess I’ll just have to go back.
• March 2008: Work retreat at Morro Bay, California

Most of these had pictures to go along with them, which can be found online if you are on my facebook. So, its been a busy 12 months. Well, let’s hope that I don’t continue to neglect my blog. Thanks for reading!
