My History with Electronic Cigarettes

First a little history:

I'm a heavy smoker, I don't really know why. As a kid, my parents didn't smoke in front of me, I had uncles that smoked, but it wasn't appealing to me. I never smoked in high school, but in college I started smoking.

After that I felt like I was born in the wrong decade. I wished I had come of age in the late 50s or early 60s when one could smoke anywhere. I love the old editions of Emily Post etiquette books when it was considered rude to not provide individual ashtrays at the dinner table for each guest.

It's official...

I thought we connected, and apparently we did, just not on the level  I thought we did. She wants to be friends, of course, and I'm not sure I need anymore friends. I think what I need is someone to feel the same way I do about them. Also a cleaning lady that actually cleans.

I have ridden the mighty marsh worm!

So I spent the weekend in Georgia [USA] at the wedding of my dear friends Brandt and Maggie. Amazingly I remembered my camera and actually used it. The album is here. I had a great time and the ceremony was beautiful.

It's news, and it's good.

So my replacement has been hired. He's also coming up to speed very quickly, which is great for me. It should just be a week or two before I'm in the back office working a normal schedule. Good times. I'm really looking forward to it. Soon I will be hired on permanently, which will also be very nice.

Now to sort out the rest of my life.

Well it's been a while

So what's going on?

My divorce is final, has been for about a month actually.

I'm up for a promotion at work, once they find a replacement for me.

I bought some new toys, a MacBook Pro and an iPod Touch.

Not too much else going on.

How are you doing?

Oh, update, my update

What's up with all my non-commenting readers?

Things have been fun here. My new job is progressing nicely, the Pats beat the Chargers last Sunday, I am actually happy for the first time in a long time, it seems. [I'm probably exaggerating]

I am enjoying my new job. I think there is a great possibility for me to excel, and move up in the company. It is NOC work, but it's going to be much more interesting that what I was doing before.

The Pats and the Giants meet in the Super Bowl on the 3rd. Let the hype machine begin! I can't decide if I want to try and have some friends over or go to a bar and watch the game there. Having people over could be fun, but I'm a lazy person and don't want to play host.

On the happiness front, I feel good. I'm still kind of lonely, but there are times when I really like being alone. I guess I need to find some one who is in the same boat as far as getting together some time but also liking time away from each other. Especially with my wacky schedule for at least the next 6 months.

Anyhow, how's by you? Good, yes? [it's best to imagine that in a funny accent of your choosing]
