I haven’t posted in a long time. A few things have happened recently. The biggest news is Maria’s promotion to MTC supervisor. As with most promotions, it’s a lot more work without much more pay. I’m very happy for her and I know she’ll do a great job. She’s only been on the job for a week and is coming in during a very critical time. The company is launching switched digital broadcasting, and there is a lot of new gear and concepts for everyone to get a handle on in a hurry. I’m a bit envious that I can’t play with the new things she and her folks will get to play with.
We took a Vegas vacation and still didn’t get to see as much of Vegas as I’d hoped. We did get to golf 3 times, once in extremely windy conditions at Bear’s Best. That was the most brutal round of golf I’ve ever played. The wind was blowing so hard, the flag sticks were just about horizontal. It was nice to stay home, but was too short.
I’m half way through my very last class for my degree. I couldn’t write the portfolio because the class covers Token Ring and NetWare, neither of which I’ve ever used. The good news here is that the class is pretty easy given my background.
One final tidbit. We bought the Dance Dance Revolution game and mat and are trying to learn to dance. We’re as competitive with this as we are with anything else. I’ll have to put up a web cam one day so we can help the world laugh a little bit. I’ll post the link to that when it happens. DDR really is a fun way to get some exercise, and you DO get a lot of exercise playing this game.
