It's a beautiful morning
Today is the first day of waking up knowing where I'll be working soon. It feels great to not have my guts twisting around inside of me as I consider every little possibility and worst-case-scenario of jobs and just accept that my future's looking rosy. The job will start on the 22nd which is good and bad. It's bad because I need some cash, but it's good because it gives me a week to tie up loose ends before I go on vacation from being unemployed. I've got to study for my EIT Exam (Engineering Test to get certified to engineer) and that's going to be a real pain. I also want to get some time to work on Virtual joel and get him to a point where he's decent enough to be posted without my feeling like I gave up. After all this build-up you'd be pissed if it wasn't just as delightfully engaging as interacting with the real me, wouldn't you? Luckily, objective interpretations of my social skills coupled with my flexible self-esteem allow me to consider that statement true regardless of the outcome.

My Parents will be here tomorrow. I've got a lot of cleaning up to do in preparation, but I'm looking forward to seeing them. Today's going to be a day of running errands. Yesterday was an exciting day in which i chose a job and Erica passed her Math test to get into the higher level course. We celebrated with Hunan Manor Chinese food and I got a Mai Tai. Today we'll clean up the loose ends, like filling out my new-hire forms and getting Erica a new Math Book. With Great Power comes great responsibility. Maybe I should make myself a Mai-Tai to kick off the day in style. Like the horrible European-naughty-'Candid Camera'-rip-off infomercial says; "Just Kidding!".
I updated the Archives a little. They're at the bottom of the page. THey're still not worth reading, but you can access all of them now. As Kevin from Home Alone says; "YESSSSssssss!".
