ok - time for updates.

ACL weekend just finished which doubles as a local music vacation and the opportunity to enjoy all that is local music culture. so counting labor day and this weekend's trip to door county; i have three 4-day weeks in a row; which is quite nice. it is especially nice because of the amount of work and 'interesting' prioritization by group leaders of various projects. we still seem to be understaffed with those in charge seemingly unconcerned with project delays and client reactions.

on the job front: the Airtricity job didn't pan out, which i anticipated after they were less than communicative in the post-initial interview process. so i'm slightly disappointed, but i plan on continuing the search for a position where i can better apply the full breadth of my knowledge, experience, and passion. its probably for the best that the wind power position didn't pan out as it involved quite a bit of travel, and if their communication in the interview process was of any indication of the company's operation; things might not be all that well run. so hopefully something local pans out here in the time leading up to the end of the fiscal year.

this weekend brings more adventure as val and i head up to door county in wisconson (which is apparently on the lake - i always figured it was an interior county for some reason). so hopefully i'll get a great taste of fall in time to return for the great end-of-summer stretch here in austin.

take a look at flickr for pictures of this weekend and i should post the northern excursion pictures next monday or tuesday.
