It’s been a while

Two random and incoherant posts wrapped into one…
It’s been a while since i’ve posted here. Work has kept me busy
I left work early today. My eye was bloodshot and red. My head hurt from staring at the computer screen the whole day. I came home and slept for a few hours. I woke up around 7:30 and felt like shit. I got McDonalds for dinner, that was a bad choice. It was gross. The last time I had fast food was 5 months ago… waaaayyy back during new years and a resolution to not have fast food for the year. I didn’t feel any better. I vegged out on the couch for the last two hours. I’m not tired due to the nap…As a result, I can’t sleep.
I offically called it the end of the snowboarding season last weekend. I didn’t go up to Meadows, and just vegged out instead. It was kind of nice, but apparently very tiring not doing anything.

I get my business cards in 3 days! Whoo hoo!* Now I can be all official and stuff haha
Yes, random entry. But it’s my blog, not yours. heh
Last paycheck for a while
Dec0
Yesterday was my last day of work. I decided to take the entire Friday off so I can get more of my packing done during the day. I need to, however, drop by work sometime this morning to get my final paycheck and also drop off my ID badge.
What’s coming up:
Well, for starters, it’s going to be a nice relaxing 3 week winter break! I’m hoping to start things off by seeing “Kong” tonight with Josh, Katie and Troy (and whoever else is going). I’m moving my stuff down to Corvallis during the afternoon on Saturday (17th). Jill will return to Portland on saturday too, so i’m sure i’ll hang out with the gang that night.
Anything beyond that is kinda up in the air… but my goal is to go snowboarding as much as I can before winter term starts up!
Job Title
Dec0
Hmm… apparently rumor has it that the RadiSys organizational chart lists be as a hardware engineer for when I start full time with salary pay. I was hired officially as a Software Engineer, Associate, now it’s Hardware Engineer, Associate. That’s pretty bad ass. =)
The weekend is here! I have 5 more work days left until my internship ends. i finished a new software release this morning, and I’ve been trying to find some odds and ends to do so that I won’t just be sitting idlely twiddling my thumbs. My current ‘project’ is to import the RedHat kernel tags (via `make tags`) into a MySQL database, and also append the src code file that is associated with the tag. This should generate a fairly large database that will be “disk intensive”… as the underlying purpose of doing this is some performance testing on an ATCA iSCSI blade.
Tomorrow (Saturday): LAN party between 12noon (Sat) to 12noon (Sun) at RadiSys. Should be interesting =p
