Man...it's been a while

I haven't blogged in weeks...new job is GREAT. Totally not an understatement. I just didn't expect to be so freaking happy so fast.

I'm really busy learning so much new stuff. Citirx is big on my plate, It's a large farm that services world wide locations. VMware, I have only virtualized one server in my life so this is all new to me. SQL Admin/DBA, I'm ok on the iSeries stuff( not great but ok) but the Intel platform, well , it's a learning opportunity. Exchange & Blackberry Admin, again all new and super fun! It's all so cool to learn. Of course I still have the iSeries administration stuff too. Mimix, Manhattan, Zmod. JDE is huge here so I am trying to learn as much as possible.

I'm so excited about this job. The travel is a nice change of pace too. I am leaving for Portland/Tacoma on Sunday for a week, going back in about 2 weeks for a couple more days and looks like might be going to France in the middle of October. Ya France. Crazy.

What else.........Lolla was memorable. I don't think I will even forget RATM. What an amazing show. Radiohead, The Toadies, NIN, Black Keys, Bang Camero, Raconteurs and on and on and on.

Dan and I, Brandon, Jim, Tom, Jesse and Amy, J-no were all there for three HOT days. Dan and I found some great shaded spots with stage views. I've never seen it so packed. It was crazy at times. Made for great people watching!

Amazing find this year was the food. Dan was 3 for 3 with choices. Tacos and Tamales, Italian sausage and beef sandwiches, and Pad Thai, pot stickers and Chicken Satay

Check out J-No's blog about it...(even though I never saw him there..BOO) OR check out Jim's blog He has a great breakdown.

I swear I'll get the lolla pic's up soon...


AJ has started golf again for Memorial and has made Varsity. Allie has been too two week long overnight camps this summer and is having a blast.

OK gotta run!
