Do the evolution

I've been really busy lately, as usual, so here's the big update.

First and foremost I finally got around to installing Rockbox on my Gigabeat F40. It's awesome. I've been watching music videos, Family Guy, and Futurama on it for over an hour and the battery is still at full charge, so I'm impressed. Plus I played Doom on it, it's very nice. The next mod I will do to my faithful Gigabeat will be upgrading the hard drive to a solid state 60 at least, but that's a ways off.

My intern started recently, he's been doing well. He's gotten a lot of new marketing stuff done already, so we're trying to find more stuff for him to do.

I've started to look at chemistry jobs just to see what's out there. Problem is there aren't any entry level jobs, everyone seems to want people who already have 2 years experience at least. It doesn't matter what research I've done, or what my GRE scores are, they just want people who have been working in industry for a while already. Thanks economy, I love you too.

I've been working 10-11 hour days doing the contractor thing and then working another 3-4 on blog related work over at Tillamook Rage, we've got several big posts coming up. Jeremy also found out they have a new Ubuntu certification through LPIC, so if I have time I have something more to do. Woohoo!

Kelli and I are helping out with the pinewood derby at the Strawberry Festival in Wabash, should be lots of good strawberry related pastries and such, so that's exciting. Plus a car show.

As far as I know that's all the major stuff. Actually, after writing that sentence I realized I was going to get yelled at. I get married in 367 days and Kelli has pretty much everything planned. I just have to pick my last 2 groomsdudes and get my tux and we're good. We've bought Kelli's wedding ring and will be getting mine in a couple weeks. Hers is gold, so we had to get it before gold got any more expensive, mine's tungsten carbide, so there wasn't much of a hurry. I've picked out my nice white tux, so now I just have to go to MW and get measured and all that jazz I guess.

Peace homies, werd to your mother.
