My first day
Today was my first day at my new job "Test Advantage". It was a pretty typical day of meeting people, reading through documentation, and getting my computer up and running.
I must say that it has been a bit of a culture shock going to such a small company though. Everyone is so quiet and when I say everyone, I mean like 6 people. The company only has about 35 or so total.
I'm confident that things will get better, but it does suck changing jobs! Hopefully I will get to start working on some of the technologies that interest me like JBoss, EJB, and Java Server Faces. I'm excited to start working with these so I can make my mark at my company.

My last day leading to my next step
Well, I've completed my last day of work at Blackboard. I learned a lot at Blackboard and meet many new friends in the process. I spent about 2 1/2 years at Blackboard before I decided that I was bored and needed to find a job that was more challenging.
I start on Monday, October 16th at my new company Test Advantage. This company is very small in comparison with my past 2 employers since they only have around 35 employees. Test Advantage develops software & hardward for testing of semiconductors at factories like Freescale, ST, IBM, etc...
I'll have to let you know later how things are going after my first few days.

Skinner strikes again !
So I'm at this wedding last weekend.... "Anyone see Adrian Skinner?", I ask
The typical answer I got, "Ummm... No, he's been gone for at least an hour."
Later Adrian returns to the wedding reception with his hair a little messed up, his tie missing and some grass on the coat of his suit...
Hmmm.... Does anyone wonder if he was getting freaky on the grass golf course down at Wildhorse Pass? Or at least a nice round of suck face!
Way to go Red Devil!

Weddings Weddings Weddings
So I've been too a few weddings recently...
First it was the De Queljoe's wedding in San Diego. I went to San Diego 1 day early for the rehersal dinner and to hang out with the guys the night before the wedding. The 2nd day the piccoli's and my fiancee Liz drove up together. The wedding was very beautiful and the reception was a lot of fun. I especially like the Cow bell song with Jason's friend Brian jumping on stage to play with the band.
Then we went to another wedding the following weekend for Kenny & Jackie Ortiz. They had there wedding at the Wildhorse Pass golf club down near Maricopa. It might have been the quickest ceremony I've attended, but I think it was just perfect, less then 10 minutes. Liz was put to work from the start as she started having flash backs to her wedding planning days... I think she got a friendly reminder of why she doesn't like that job.
Now I have to go to a wedding on October 29th for my cousin in San Francisco. Then next year I have the most important wedding (MINE!!!). Followed by Liz's sister Jen in June. I'm not sure if Ron & Moo will make it in next year as well, but if they do and if I'm invited then I'm sure I have another one to add to the list.
I guess the next step for everyone is kids.... any takers?
