Oh yeah, high rollin
Overdue for an update once again.
Construction on the site is obviously a bit slowed – I guess it’s fully functional for the moment, but there’s some quirkies in the G2 layout that need to be fixed, and a bit too much meta crap that needs to be pared out of the WP presentation. Of course, gotta get some photoshop love goin on as well.
I seem to have somehow stumbled upon the darkside, and I’ve become my own worst nightmare – management! ack! I find myself suddenly thrust into the position of Manager, Mission Operations. It’s been interesting so far, but all it really means in the end is less geeking and exponentially more bullshit to deal with. And meetings. Lots of meetings. Meetings to plan more meetings even. On the whole, I’m not a very happy camper at the moment. Oh, but things will change.
On the upside in the world of pointy hair, I just got back from a trip to our site office which is conveniently located in Las Vegas. First trip out, and had a good time. Work was lax, mostly meet’n'greet, few meetings, and evenings were spent schmoozing, drinking and gambling. Not sure I could stomach an actual multi-day vacation to Vegas, w/ nothing to do but spend money on shows/drinks/gambling, but going for business and farting around in the evenings was pretty pleasant. I’ve learned to play blackjack, and actually did decently well – walked away with $70 in my wallet that wasn’t there when I arrived – not bad for a newbie I’d guess.
We’ve been getting a shit-ton of rain here in the burque, 64% humidity today! The rain is welcome, and certainly helps cool things down in the afternoon/evening. Hopefully a wet summer will lead to a wet winter – I’d prefer not to repeat last season.
That’s it for now, expect more changes on the way if I ever get off my lazy ass and pull myself away from GuildWars. =)
