my dear friend tom, also known in some circles as my future sugar daddy or the "default", oops, that is me...sent me this link.
now thomas p is in graduate school preparing for a life of fuel cells and all sorts of engineering fun. so he sends this link to myself and a few other like-minded friends with the note of "something to do when you are bored at work"
now, i adore tom. he is brillant and works really hard at what he does. however, when i chatted him yesterday he had just gotten up. this was about, oh...11 am ish.
so i can't feel too bad for him.
so i check out this website.
i laughed so hard i almost peed myself.
now here is the kicker. checking out crazy flash sites at work is about as frowned upon as blogging at work...seems i have no problem with either.
but i have this loud, deep laugh. so the guys around me are fairly sure i am losing it as i am watching some of the shorts on the site.
yeah, not cool.
because me being me, can't just watch one and go back to work, oh nooooo...
i have to watch like 10 of them.
have i ever mentioned that addictive personality of mine?

but, check it out. good stuff. worth a laugh or two and will make the day move a little faster when the motivation is lacking.

so i met with this woman about job possibilitites in other cities.
it is a consulting company, so i would be back to that gig. which i have no problem with.
but as of today, the only place that she could move me within the next 6 months would be minneapolis.
now, i have nothing against MPLS. i always have a good time there. but i really wanted coastal and i have never been there and had the "cool city, i could live here vibe". of course, i currently live in des moines.
so there is all the perspective i really need. but if i am going to move, i want it to be somewhere i really want to be.
and winters are colder there than they are here.

so that is that.
