I need to put more effort in writing here more often.

They are still hiring down in Tampa, my friend suggested I send his boss a resume and some code samples.

I really need to write some code samples up and get it sent.

I just don’t know what to write.

I figured I could send him my StateMachine class, and some common templated data structures in C++, and then send a game of Blackjack in Java. And in my resume mention my SQL, Java, C++, C#, C skills, and reference my website.

Honestly I just hope he visits my website. That’s where all of my work really shines.

My sister gave me a price range for apartments down in the Tampa area. $700 a month. I’m currently paying $550 with all utilities so… ouch, that hurts. But I think she only quoted DIRECTLY in Tampa, none of the suburbs.

Yeaaaaaaaa just Googling Apartments + Tampa shows cheaper than that.

Granted, I don’t want to live in a Ghetto, I’ve done that a few times.

Whatever, I’m ranting.

I hope I get that job.

I should be coding, not writing in OD. lol.

lol. Now I’m both coding and writing this OD entry. Don’t be surprised if I start writing sentences in code.

while(bruce->isAwake() && bruce->motivated()) code();

I need to start exercising again. Get in shape. Though I don’t miss the pain of excercising at all… I do miss… the benefits of being very in shape. Now I just feel… fat and lazy, I guess.

I might even do some running. Even though I have bad knees and hate running with a passion – you can’t deny that running is the ultimate cardio workout.

My job at CACI is getting difficult. They put me on this special side project with just 2 other programmers, and I feel so… overwhelmed with the work.

I know I can handle it, if I just take it day by day, but sometimes I just want to give up now.

Okay, I’m off to bed.

RUNNING! But if you’re going to do that, find some trails to run on so you don’t hurt your knees as badly as on the pavement.

you always make me smile even when you’re cranky but most when you are just being silly bruce

RYN: Oh, I know. It’s just so frustrating to have to fight back every step of the way, to know that this is so obvious and so right but it’s going to be a long haul, and to deal with the consequences of their hateful legislation. Thanks for the note!
