November 2000: 1 year as Omni Hotels' Reservation Center Application Development Manager in Omaha, Nebraska USA. After a year, I'm completely accustomed to the house, but convenient 24-hour access to private laundry facilities hasn't really added much to net cleanliness. You can search for new stuff on this server if you like. For all you philosophically curious Shakesperian computer nerds out there: RFC2795

I've got a ton of photos from my 2 trips to Longs Peak, CO this year, but
haven't gotten off my butt to scan them yet. 1st trip was w/ my newlywed friends
Eli and Mi Un, the 2nd was w/ the fam and Brad and I made it up to
Chasm Lake, a vert of 2,360 feet over 4.2 miles. The
4.2 miles back down was much easier for me (-pant-, -pant-), but Brad
traipsed up the whole mountain yawning
"It's neat I suppose, but hiking for 6 hours is boring. I shoulda brought my Rio."
One of these days I'll make it down to some
Omaha poetry events.
Misc: my first house,
my trip to Paris summer '99, my
ISU Philosophy Club bio from 1994,
and my ongoing involvment in Omaha community theatre.

Shelterskelter 5 was a blast, as usual. Met and/or got
reaquainted with the friendliest, most talented, most energetic, most creative,
most alive people I know. Theatre continues to be my antidote for monitor induced
retina burn. That's me @ TAG night out on Halloween, btw. Click me for photos.

"Zaphod? He's just this guy, you know?" The initial rush of my new job has faded, replaced by the feeling of grizzled veteranism (as close to that as I've ever known anyway). I enjoy my work, and am glad to be entrusted with the challenge. This area of my website used to drone on about proving to myself and "anyone else who cares to watch" that I could lead a team in an established, growing environment. With control of a critical department with 9 employees in a $400M+ company, I feel I've obtained my objective. I used to play disc golf. Current distractions include: chess (last time I looked I was ranked 188th (up 13!) in the state of Nebraska, unless you query the USCF database. Wow.), mountain biking, weight lifting (slacker!!) and miscellaneous computery junk. |
