Moving again…

So it’s becoming clearer and clearer that we are moving again. Jeremy has been mentioning it for months, but I never quite believe him. It sounds like we are headed to Dresden sometime in Q2, otherwise known as April, May or June. Then staying until the end of the year. At the beginning of the new year, we will be moving to Singapore for a 2 year contract. Since we may be staying in Germany about 6 months, I think this means I get to forget about learning any German. I’m excited to visit all the youth hostels in Europe, but I’m also getting into the groove here in Wappingers Falls, NY 12590.

Pizza day update

So today was pizza day again at Bright Horizons. I send Vince off in the morning with a Ziploc bag full of $1.50 for his 2 slices of pizza. Pick up time for Vince is usually noon, but the pie gets delivered at noon, so restrained myself and spent another 30 minutes at home today. I walked in at 12:30 and the pizza man has just arrived. Vince takes one look at me and holds his hands up like the Supremes (Stop! In the name of love) and screams, “Nooooooo!!!!”. He stopped screaming as soon as it was clear to him that he got to stay for the pizza. I sat around and talked to Miss Pat, his teacher. Today was full of drama, another kid in the class split her lip and chipped a tooth in the activity room today. She was happily eating her pizza waiting for her mom to pick her up and take her to the dentist.

Vince was the slowest eater in the class. Hadn’t even started his 2nd slice and all the other kids were done.

Amazon Interview

It went well. I think the guy liked me a lot. It was almost refreshing in a way. Somehow it seems more low key than all these bay area firms that i’ve been interviewing at. I told hiw that I didn’t necessarily want to do what i did before and he came back and told me that he used to do hardware and that he’s much more fulfilled working at amazon. So both people that i’ve talked to there have been extremely nice. I have a good feeling about it.

Almost landed in Portland last night

Well, due to heavy fog in Pasco, the plant almost landed in Portland, about 200 miles away, last night.

We talked almost all night just to get the stories straight for these past several weeks. After interview on Mini, we are going to Washougal this morning. I found a lot of real estates in Washougal area for auction. Will take a closer look on this. May provide us with some opportunities.
