About five years ago I started my first job in Information Technology. I was hired by a man who bore an uncanny resemblance to Dr. Evil from Austin Powers (no joke, this man was pasty white, bald, and even wore a gray collar-less shirt, he also had a PHD, but that meant he knew the book work, but not how to execute).

haven't been on here in a while, been hectic, and very difficult times. my dad was admitted into the hospital and had to have emergency surgery last week. He is in ICU fighting an infection due to a ruptured colon, but as each day passes, he is doing better and better. we are hoping soon that he will be in a private room, and the after that, home for a lenthy recovery. here's hoping that things keep getting better

Its been a long time since i've felt good at work. Mostly because today I got my Interview scheduled for a job at a techology solutions company. Hopefully it all goes well.
