I got a job offer this morning. I couldn't be happier.

Funny the timing... I have been healing a fractured ankle and my prior employer rolled me off a project because I couldn't work. So I was out of work and couldn't walk. Low and behold... April 20th is the day I can start putting weight on my foot and the 21st is my first day at my new employer.

However, at this time I am still developing a custom portfolio for an interview tomorrow at a large companies in the northern Chicago suburbs.

What a game for those Sox, eh? The stadium looks better than I thought.

Maddux, yesterday, really needs to catch a groove. He is going to start having the fair-weather fans against him soon. But, he's only human and he's 40. He's going to have off days. I think we put him on too high of a pedestal.

The stadium is great indeed...nice improvements...

Big win against a very good and up-coming Royals team (who I have predicted to win the Central)!

Same here...wonder if it's an epidemic. Getting paid to do nothing is all well and good but time slows to a halt when your on you ass for 4-5 hours staight.

I just got my new golf clubs today, Nike forged Blades, along with an amazing matching bag. So I've been setting them up and hitting some wiffle balls in the basement. Playing with my buddies on the weekend.

I am avoiding writing a few papers before the end of the year... they include... my history of liturgy exam due tomorrow, a 8 page paper for history of liturgy, a 10 page critical book review for pentateuch, 10 pages of answered questions for pentateuch, a paper for new testament that I doubt I'll even do, and a paper for leadership one that I had better do otherwise I'd probably flunk the course... and they're all due by thursday otherwise I couldn't hand any of them in... YEY FOR COLLEGE!

Programming a ray tracer for school. Hehe.. I can get a triangle to cast a shadow on another triangle!! Yay!!

To the topic poster, I'd rather be board than doing all these end of semester assignments and finals.. You have it good.

Heh... sorry. Two reasons:

1) I live in the northern Chicago suburbs so downtown isn't a quick jump.
2) I still can not put weight on my foot. So carrying a 24 pack of beer on crutches doesn't seem likely or possible.

Also, are you old enough to drink? Tsk, tsk...

Putting off revising for my exams and writing my Masters dissertation.

So far today, I have started to design 3 websites for a few friends and my company, set up a new Ltd company for when I finish Uni, sorted out the corporate branding, and sent it all for printing... Set up a web server for my as yet unfinished website.

None of which is urgent, unlike my exams.

I will carry it for you.. you just check out! If I was old enough to drink, I would buy it myself.
