Becky’s got her groove back
Tomorrow will end my first week of work at my new job. Things have been going good and the people are nice. I don’t feel like an outsider like I have at other jobs. I’ve finished up one project and have started another. It feels soooooo good to be working with php again. For the … Continue Reading
Managed to make it through
Today was my first day at my new job. The job is perfect for me. It’s a php/MySQL “specialist”. My background is in php, and I have lots of experience with sql … mainly MSSQL in recent years, but I started out with MySQL. I actually ran across this position a little over a year … Continue Reading
I’m in ‘Dega … kinda
Last year I mentioned that I signed up to have my name on Dale Earnhardt Jr’s racecar in the race at Talladega. AMP decided to do the promotion again this year. Of course I had to sign up again. Last year my name was on the roof of the car. This year it’s on the … Continue Reading
Open letter to ESPN
RE: NASCAR race coverage To whom it may concern: We need to talk about the quality of your coverage of the Nationwide series and Sprint Cup series race broadcasts.

I mentioned yesterday that I found out that my name is on Dale Earnhardt Jr’s car for this weekend’s race. I’m still giddy just thinking about it. But I hope I didn’t jinx Jr by my name being on the car. During the first practice today, he had engine issues, and they had to change … Continue Reading

The day after
Yesterday was a LONG, interesting, but fun day. The interesting started in the morning. I went shopping for some stuff at Walmart and had to lay on the horn twice within a span of a couple minutes while I was leaving the parking lot. People need to pay attention when they drive. Then I stopped … Continue Reading
FOX has their head up their *bleep*
:soapbox: This weekend is the first nite of the 2008 NASCAR season. I was excited. I love nite racing. But the nite started off on a bad note. First, FOX decided to start the pre-race before it was even scheduled to come on. And then, they leave the broadcast right before the race was supposed … Continue Reading
