YAY 4 Internet!
After a week and a half I finally have my internet hooked up. Because the apartment complex has a deal with ATT, I can only get DSL. Which totally bites! Oh well, it is cheaper though... I also go access to the internet at work finally, so everyone can start emailing me at my gmail address again. I just hate using Outlook. I don't understand why companies don't start using Open Source like Thunderbird. It is free and works way better if you ask me.

Sorry For The Delay
Well it has now been over a week since I have had in internet connection. Man I am an internet junky...
The drive down absolutely sucked! It took me 14 hours to get to Sacramento and another 12 to get to Oceanside. And all that time in the cab of a truck that just constantly shook. I swear I felt like driving it off the road and crashing it, then just calling the insurance company and getting everything replaced.
My first week of work was ok. My team seems really cool, we all get a long really well. We don't have much to do since almost all of our equipment is still in Chicopee... So we have just been sitting around and trying to debug our indoor test range (ITR). We did all go play golf Sunday morning, not a good thing. I was happy to go play, but I have only played 1.5 rounds since early September and I haven't been practicing at all.
So it went really well... I just barely broke 90... HA! Too bad the rest of my team knows my golf handicap, so they were expecting a little bit more. So I will have to make up for that.
Anyways I got some pics taken, but I will have to wait to post them when I get my own internet connection on Tuesday. Later.

Bank of America???
Have you heard that Bank of America is offering credit cards to illegal aliens? BofA is not requiring a Social Security number, or any credit history to obtain one of their credit cards. All you need is a checking account for 3 months.
I don't like this one bit. First off I think we are way too easy on illegal aliens. I mean just look at the words we use to describe them "ILLEGAL" aliens. They shouldn't be here if you ask me. Now we are giving them more rights that LEGAL Americans go to war for. Come on!
This is just letting the world know that its okay if you don't follow our immigration laws, we'll give you all the rights you need anyways. Bullshit! Thousands upon thousands of Americans have died for our rights, and people are just going to give them away. Its a shame.

** Insert Cool Title **
T-Minus 2.5 days and counting. I have most the house packed up and placed in the garage. All I have left is a few odds-and-ends to pack up, then its time to clean. I have to do some touch-up painting, mop all floors, vacuum and shampoo the carpets, wash all the windows and blinds, scrub and clean the showers and bathrooms, and try to get the back yard cleaned up...
On another note, most of you probably didn't watch Big Break 5, but a previous co-worker of mine (Julie Wells) was on it if you recall. Well the people on the show were fairly interesting, especially Becky. She just seemed like someone that Karen and I would be good friends with. Well I was cruising the LPGA website and noticed that she is doing a rookie blog about her first season on tour. You should check it out, if you care... There are a couple others from the show who have one too.
Becky Jeanne Ashley Kristina
And there is my girl Paige from the UW, who kicked some serious ass for the Dawgs last season. Go Paige!
(If you can't tell, I actually like womens golf. To me its much more competitive then the mens tour. You just never know who is going to win....)

No More Retail!
On Wednesday night I completed my last shift at Golf Galaxy. It felt great, not for leaving a job, but the thought that I may never have to work retail again in my life!
I really didn't have to do much at the Galaxy. My main job was to basically represent Nike and do club fittings. So I really didn't have to deal with much, but it still feels great.
All I have left for work with Nike is the Portland Golf Show this weekend. It will be long, busy hours. I work all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It kind of puts a hamper on me getting ready to move, but I have been making good progress. I am almost all done packing... Just need to finish that up and then completely clean the house. Thats it...
