What's Goin On in Our Real Lives

[Turtle]

Later today I leave on my first "real" vacation in a very long time. I am driving the family to New Jersey where the boys will spend some time with their aunts and cousins while celtfaery and I spend a week in Paris. I am extremely excited. I will have my computer with me because I don't have time off from school, but I don't think I will be spending any time surfing Hypo.

 

See y'all in August!

Ahhh Paris!!! :shrug: i heard they have a super sewage treatment system. :eek: but, i have an idea (as if) since you won't be in contact with Hypography, you can put Hypography in contact with France. Here's the plan>> make up some little cards with nothing on them but Hypography.com, and leave them discretely around Grand Paris. or not. :phones: :hyper:

 

my real Paris life is living vicariously through you & celtfairy on this one; don't screw it up for us. :kiss: can you guys wink at some Frenchies randomly and report their responses? ;) :hyper: ;)

 

PS ixnay on da inkway; might be offensive or something. :eek: however on the cards, i have amendment. make only 4 cards, 2 for each of you...each represents one wing on a butterfly...this makes you two the flappers of chaos as you each choose randomly where & when to leave your cards in Paris. bon voyage.

No Hypo cards passed out, but I have started a new section in the Gallery dedicated to World Museums with pictures from the Louvre. I have three there of particular interest to you, Mr. Turtle. I am going to start another section of the Gallery dedicated to World Travel, where I will put my picture of Paris, Eiffel Tower, Versaille, etc.

I'm going to a music festival in the bush! I'll arrive at the venue (in the middle of nowhere) tomorrow and camp there until Saturday or Sunday. :confused::naughty:

Tomorrow I'm going to DC with my XC coach to meet Alan Webb!!!!! (one of my heroes:D)

He's the American record holder for the 1 mile, and he went to school in my area.... well... Reston, which is just a quick hop over the river from me.

 

Yay!

The contract I was so excited about--building a commercial cargo rocket to carry stuff to low Earth orbit--completely fell through. So, I am busy looking for another job. The handwriting is on the wall--in flashing neon. Resume attached.

 

My mother is finally coming to visit me after all these years. My wife, Gwen, and I have only been married 4 years, and she is nervous about her mom-in-law seeing our new house for the first time.

[Jay-qu]

Thats a mighty impressive resume you have there pyro! :)

[Pyrotex]

I had an excellent interview with SAIC this morning.

I hope they liked my resume as much as JQ did.

[TheFaithfulStone]

Now I know where you live. :confused:

Yes Congrats Pyro!!!! Well done.

[Pyrotex]

Thank you DougF, Jay-Qu and Big Dog!

Next week is my last week here at Nocturnal Aviation Engineering. (A fly by night operation, if there ever was one.) So, I may not be posting as regular for a while. Or I may have to start posting just from home until after I get settled in the new job. So, if my appearances get a little sparse, you know why.

 

In the meantime, visit my latest TGIF posts. And Anything.

[DougF]

Are you going to get a nice corner office with a view? no!

well I hope you won't have to commute as far any ways. :(
