Pardon my cobwebs
September 29, 2007 | FUN!, Geekly Aspirations
Hello, friends! My, how I have neglected you. I have a really good reason, though. I got a job! Halleluiah! I’ve been “between contracts” (”unemployed“) since June. My boss seems really cool and my desk is near a nice big window. It’s with that software giant based in Redmond, once again, and as I am not an idiot, this is the last I’ll speak of it. But, yay!
I imagine I’ll reach the ‘blogging at work’ level of comfortability at some point, but until then, it might be a little sparse around these parts. Don’t go away!

Our friends K&A are superinvolved with the ALS Association and they invited us to do this walk with them this morning. We brought Freya and had a great time! The forest was beautiful and the walk felt good.
Mountain and Zoo – notice how freaking dark it is. It was 10:00 in the morning. *sigh*

In other news, I started a Photoshop class at the cool-ass School of Visual Concepts last week, and I am so geek-ily excited about it. In my last techy job, I was often asked to use Photoshop to move an arrow or correct wording on a graphic for a website. After a brief crying jag, I would bumble about pathetically in Photoshop, taking an hour to do something that should have taken me 30 seconds. Now I will be an expert! Plus, I look forward to applying my new skillz to my pictures and maybe even a blog redesign. They have all kinds of classes, so if you’re local and techy, check ‘em out.

So, don’t worry! I didn’t die, I just had a week of getting up at an un-godly hour and having to look busy and responsible all day. If I don’t make it back here much this week, come back next week for sure. SB and I have some adventurous and slightly naughty plans for the weekend that should result in blog fodder. Stay tuned.
