i should do this more often

Been a while, figured I'd throw an update up here. Wow, it's been a long while now that I actually look at my updates. Oh well, here we go!

Moved to Orchard Park, NY, to start my new job. Still can't believe I've been here four months already. Job's pretty good -- still learning the software itself but with only one product it's pretty expansive so that'll happen. Testing itself is going fine, though tricky since we don't exactly have documentation. Mostly winging it and asking questions when I don't know what the program is supposed to do...which is a lot. We did just put in place a new development process that will give me more time to investigate the parts of the software I have to test, so that's handy. Also it's nice to be able to walk, especially when we get a foot of snow dumped on us overnight.

Been traveling a TON. Two weddings, Thanksgiving, holiday dinner/party, plus a trip to the zoo -- all weekend trips to Rochester. Plus two weekends in Ithaca (Batman: Arkham Asylum is fun), one in Albany (so is Dominion), one to Philly for my birthday (yay Brewers!), and one to DC (for the Rally to Restore Sanity). That's 5+2+1+1+1=10 weekends on the road out of a possible 18, plus the very first weekend which was just running around picking stuff up and moving in and such. So yeah, been keeping busy.

Other than that...not much goin' on, really. Mostly just doin' what I do. Playing a lot of Borderlands with Ben and Ian. Finished Machine of Death a couple weekends ago. Crazy book, that. Watching Community after we watched Season One in Ithaca one of those weekends. Everybody is insisting that I watch all the back issues of Arrested Development so I started that over the weekend. Kinda funny, but mostly I just want to punch everybody not named Jason Bateman in the face. Especially his mom. And sister. And the magician brother. Also the main guy reminds me of Mal Reynolds.
