April 23, 2008 Well I been in Brimingham Alabama doing engineering support the past couple of days. I guess one of the perks of this soon to be gone job is that I get to at least get out of the office and visit other cities in the country. I have gone to some really nice places that I would have not normally gone too. It feels pretty refreshing to go into a new office and talk to new people and see how they do things, It allows me to get a different perspective on the business. The only downside to these little adventures of mine is I get home sick within the first day or so and miss my wife. It’s bad enough we barely get to see each other with our schedules being so screwed up the way they are. This just adds a little extra layer of stress to things. But as I always say, you have to do what you have to do.
Speaking of jobs, things are looking good as far as job prospects go. I have a few things lining up in company and I started putting feelers out to the outside. I have a feeling that everything is going to end up comming together from all angles at once, and I will be forced to choose. I guess have too many options is better then having none.

March 31, 2008 Wordpress 2.5 was released a few days ago and I finally got around to upgrading the website. So far so good and I am digging the new admin interface. I seen some traffic on the wordpress forums about how people didn’t like the new admin interface when it was in Beta. It is different then before, but I am not finding it too difficult to find everything.

March 24, 2008 I been doing a great deal of soul searching the past couple of days. I always tended to kind of go with the flow and never really followed a set plan. I tend to think this has served me pretty well in the past couple of years. I always kind of had an idea on what I want to do, I never had a set goal of “I want to do in X in time frame Y”. I am starting to think its about time I did that. I am at the point where it seems like career wise I find something good for a few years, I work my ass off and do really well, only to just end up having to start from square one again. I do not want to keep having to do this, this is my fourth time already and its starting to get rather tiring. I need to start working on getting to a point career wise and life wise where I won’t have to do that anymore.

March 20, 2008 It’s been a pretty crazy two days. I found out yesterday that they want to move our entire department from West Seneca, NY out to Denver, CO in 6 months. It was not working out and they want to move everything out to Denver where all the development and stuff happens. This leaves me pretty much screwed again. I just went through this not even two years ago when things were being transferred from Adelphia to Time Warner/Comcast. I think it would be a hell of a opportunity to work in Denver, but Amanda still has two years of residency left and plus we are in the middle of building a house. I have some things in the works that will hopefully keep me here in Buffalo, but If things don’t pan out with in the next month or so, I am going to start looking outside the company. I really do not want to, this has been the best job I have ever had and I hate to leave.
