So Greetings from Redmond
It’s day 4 of training here, and other than a case of exhaustion, things are going really well. We’ve been working on our various training information, getting familiar with the products and services that we offer, and in general simply having a good time. A lot of things so far are familiar to me from my previous training doing the customer service line, but there have already been new items on the menu, and I’m sure as time goes on more and more new things will come up.
Weather wise? It’s the greater Seattle area, do you really need to ask? Rain Drizzles (rain to those non-seattleites) all day, everyday, without question or fail. Personally? I love it. I’ve really missed this weather and it’s nice to be in it for a while.
Other than that? I’m doing well. Kinda boring during the evenings, but overall not so shabby. They’ve got me staying in the afore mentioned Redmond Inn, which has me in a king size bed with a mini-kitchen (sink, coffee maker, and mini-fridge). It’s remarkably comfortable, which is handy as I spend most of my evenings there.
Well, just thought I’d make a quick post letting everyone know indeed I am okay. That may have been a completely different story had I decided to travel over here last Sunday. It appears as though there was a rather nasty rock slide coming across the very same pass I had travelled over. They’ve still got one direction of the traffic closed, and do not have a timeframe for it to reopen. So yea, good thing I came over when I did.
Alrighty, well, lunch is getting close to ending here, so I’m gonna just close this. Wish I could check my email, but alas, I can’t while I’m here (due to a proxy server), so I’ll have to do that this weekend. If you’ve emailed me and I havnt’ replied, it’s simply because I havn’t had a chance to check my account. Remember though, please use my gmail account mentioned earlier, as I won’t be checking the others until I get home.
More Later.

It was 80 this week in NC. I hate the weather here. I miss the misty type rain.
I miss the trees too. We have these lame scrawny pine forests. Grrrr. My dad lives in bristol and its much nicer than here IMO.

It was good to see you and see that you are doing well. I finally got my harddrive replaced on this Dell for the second time. I updated my Office, Norton and Roxio 8 too. BUT I lost somethings as well. Maybe now I’ll remember to back-up. Later….
