I probably will. Won't be there until later on, when the bugs start to get worse, though.

I just got back from a job interview. I've told a few of y'all about the job... anyway, I think it went well, I think they liked most of what I had to say, but probably have some reservations about me. Mostly due to my lack of experience. The job seems like a very good fit for my skills but also waaaaay more stress and responsibility than my current job.

They asked me about my hobbies and I told them about footbag, which was great because I used footbag as a metaphor for how hard I work on learning new things. I'm such a whore.

So I'm gonna think about it for a couple days & try to find some blogs about people who've gone into that line of work (Enterprise Software Consulting) and see what their experiences were like. Lots to think about right now.

So... yeah... footbag.

I've done the same thing! They just looked at me like I was a loser for playing so much hackey sack... but what else you going to do while unemployed? :)

Independence Park got wrecked in the storm. Also its supposedly going to storm again. I don't think I'm kicking tonight, very slim chance.

Anybody want to kick tonight? Also, does anyone know what condition Independence Park is in - like, is the power back on, have the swamps drained? If its still wrecked then I'd rather play somewhere else. Open to suggestions.
