For those of you that may have seen Drosts awesome review on digg and decided to comment, you may have noticed it's "not cool" on social networking communites to leave comments pimping a site... even if it's the source of the material.

It's not as bad as it sounds, mainly because I managed to miss the foot and toes and just got that little webbing stuff between my big toe and little toe, but MAN does it hurt. Unfortunately I've got a half inch slice though the web and it hasn't closed yet, so I'm going to have to hit up a doctor.

Yeah, it hurts like hell, and I think it has stopped bleeding...I've had worse but I'm in fear that a wide whole in my foot could get infected so I waited until the morning to go see what can be done about it.

As I'm sitting down in one of my interviews last week I get a call, many calls, then a few SMS's and it doesn't end. The phone is on vibrate so I don't have to annoy the folks performing the interview.

The interview was cake, five hours long but nothing too harsh. I've had worse. They seemed to be all on board with the crap I was telling them about myself...although I must admit, they spent more time talking about them and less about wondering how much stuff I knew about the job criteria. I found that odd.

We're, apparently, officially assimilated into the new company, now we just "rest and vest" - oh wait, no, we don't. We just do what we were doing before but don't have any real incentive to work from.

Well, unless you call the incentive my interview tomorrow. Now I just have to figure out my excuse for not coming into work. I think I'm going to do the "work from home" thing tomorrow, VPN software from the new company is active (or so they say) so maybe I'll do a little work after I take off the suit and tie.

Maybe not. I dunno.

So I figured I'd take some of the trick I've seen from some of the folks, and splatter my background and such with images. From our vacation a few weeks ago. So, I really don't have much to say besides that...

Oh, I've got an interview on Friday, can't wait to see how that goes. It's not too far of drive from where I am now (or so I think). Hopefully that goes well and the job sounds fun - we'll see.

Here are some vacation photos from Story Land.

So I put my resume on dice.com and monster.com over the last two days. I'm happy to see that the vipers known as recruiters are all over it. I seem to get at least one call or voice mail every few hours and e-mails throughout the day for positions in areas all around Mass and New Hampshire.
