Days 642-49: American Idiot

I'm not a current fan of the job market. I trust that no one does. But I'm lucky. I've gotten some good bites and had the advantage of being in a position to turn a few people down. Just looking for something that'll feed my soul...

Days 595-619: Epic Posting Fail On My Part

It's been a while. Longer than I intended. See, I moved across the country to Washington and do not yet have internet set up. As such, posting is hard. I'm typing this from Phil's house.

But I've had lots to be grateful for in my absence, such as:
- finally being back in Washington for good! No more planning for the one week I'm in town or missing big events because I'm too far away.
- getting to see Phil so much more.
- getting to see Becca so much more.
- being back near Costco and Whole Foods.
- excuses to back recipes that are my own concoctions.
- a fun new neighborhood.
- new dogs.
- being closer to friends.
- being closer to family.
- shopping buddies.
- being back where I can get quality sushi.
