Are you pickin' up what I'm puttin' down?

First, I must give a shout to Jeremiah (J) from good ol' MSOE. Good luck to him, Jadon, Price, Ted, Drew, Westy, and all the others that have finals next week. Next off, I've got to say that things are alright with work. It's getting a little less busy, sort of.. I have to better utilize my time a bit, but hey, I'm a rookie.

My sister Amanda seems to be hanging in there at college. It's tough, but she works hard and tries her best.

Laura, although I'm not supposed to know yet... Is pregnant! That's a plus, because she's been married for over a year, so congratulations Laura and Nate!

Colorado is way too close. I'm not ready at all. I need to go drop off my skis for re-edging tomorrow for sure.

I'm still looking for the perfect house to buy. I think I have two roommates that would live with me, Matt (my current roommate) and Matt J. (an old friend from school)

As I explained in past entries, television is easy to get addicted to. I think my roommate might be at that point. I haven't yet had to force the remote from his hand.

Comedy Central gave props to blogs tonight... It goes to show that words can be made up and widely used in a matter of a few months.

Scheduling... The bane of my existance.

Every so often, I think to myself, "Self, can this get any tougher?" Lately, it's been in regards to work. I'm working on a redesign of a corporate Intranet. It's very cool, and I like working on it. My project manager is awesome, my boss likes it, the technical architect in the group thinks it's pretty cool, and it's fun. One minor problem, though, is that it isn't an easy project. I've found myself throwing a few extra hours at problems because I underestimate their difficulty. I'm going to work on Saturday as if its a regular workday, and I'm thinking that it will help me get back on schedule.

In other areas of life, things are going well. Jadon, Price, and I have nailed down a few more details regarding our ski trip. Although I've decided all rental car companies suck, we're still going to pull it off for under a grand, so that is Ok.

The remainder of this week is going to be busy, quite busy.
Thursday: Work, Nick Freeman is in town.
Friday: Work, Westy's Birthday
Saturday: Tony will be in town, and my sister will be stopping through.
Sunday: I'll be catching up on my last few things I need to finish for work on Monday, as well as doing some laundry.

Ah, so plenty of things on my plate. Oh well, life is still good.
