Co-worker

My little co-worker joined me this morning for several hours. He was good and stayed on his desk and off my keyboard.

Working...

I have been working for a start up company for almost 4 years now and it has been a great experience with a lot of highs and a lot of lows. I met these guys about 5.5 years ago while I was working with Picasso Software and was assigned to their project so I have had my hands in this application from day one. It is like my baby and I am very protective of it. Yes, I am a geek.

I was sitting in my office this morning pushing the latest code base and thinking how blessed I am to be working with a group of people that have passion for what they are doing and to be working for a company that has direction and real goals. For me my job is more than just what I do from 7 to 5 everyday.

This last year has been hard, because of the "down turn" in the economy but we stayed the course and have weathered the worst of it. We are starting to see life out there again in the marketplace and are starting to pick up steam again.

Lets hope for more momentum that will carry us into the new year.

370Z

I saw this new "Z" and the Texas State Fair auto show and was impressed. Very nice!

Welcome back...

I realized it has been a while since I have posted any new entries out there. It's not like I don't have interesting things to post about it's just a matter of finding the time. I am trying the juggle work, exercise and having a life. It seems like work seems to win a lot of the time, especially since I work for a start up.

Today we celebrated my wife's birthday and my family came over to the house. I decided to make lasagna for the occasion which I thought would be nice and easy. Not so easy since I make everything from the noodles to the sauce from scratch. I spent 3 hours this morning stirring, kneading, rolling, boiling, etc. By the time I was all done, I was so wiped out all I wanted to do was crash on the couch. At least it was all very tasty!
