Want to build a blog/site?

I’ve decided that I could be of help to those who are wanting to build their own website or blog.

I don’t mind answering questions, so please contact me if you would like any help.

If you would like more than just a few questions answered, then please let me know and I’ll let you know how my prices vary.  From Basics to Complete Awesomeness!

Losing de Gros

I’ve decided that I’m going to cut some body fat.  I tried this back in October with success, however it was hard to stick to since my girlfriend wasn’t willing to also try it out.  Well we’ve both made the decision that we need a change in what and the way we eat so we’re both going to take the diet from Tim Ferris – The “Slow Carb” diet – and try to cut some of the extra wait we’ve gained.

Later today I’ll try to post some of the starting details for myself: weight, height, body fat %, etc.

Perhaps a picture as well (how emberassing ; )

I Love You Man

Last night I went and saw the movie, I Love You Man, with a couple friends and my girlfriend. My goodness, that movie was the most hilarious thing I’ve seen in a long time. If you haven’t yet seen it, get out there and watch it ASAP!!!! Totally worth it.

Work so far…

Well I’ve been here at IGT for a week and two days.  So far it has been up and down.  At first I was told that I wouldn’t be receiving my computer for a couple weeks, then I got it the second day.  Then I was told that I wouldn’t be receiving my signing bonus until the end of August, then I got it the first Friday after I started!  I was also told I’d be receiving my badge which lets me into the labs and the entrance to the building we’re in on Friday…well I still haven’t received that.  That is mainly due to the fact that they don’t keep track of paper work they have people fill out too well.

That was a big frustration at first.  I was sent a packet of papers to fill out, however since I didn’t have the address of where I would be moving, I had to put down my parents’ address.  That works, but it isn’t quite accurate.  When I got here I then had to fill out a few pages that I already did, but it wasn’t too big a deal.

Outside of the stresses of not receiving things on time, things have been better since I did receive the important things early.  I’ve been working on learning about what it is I was hired for.  I can’t tell too much, however it is the future of IGT, which is a pretty great feeling that I’m on such an important project.  It has been quite boring, frustrating, overwhelming, and interesting since I’ve been here due to everything I have to know.  Most of what I’ve been doing has been dealing with learning about the new system and trying to get it all understood…well there is much more than I was ever expecting.  Hopefully things will sink in soon and I can get onto helping my colleagus out.

Well that’s work stuff.  I’ll post later on how things are outside of here.
