Finally Friday

I'm sure I spent the week doing something, but I'm having a hard time recalling exactly what...  Time to check my notes.

( Notes )

Today I made two new user icons from my license plate(s).  The other is even more obnoxious then this one (think <blink>), so I don't know if I'll ever get use it (but I uploaded it anyway).  I've had this plate for years and only occasionally have I gotten a reaction from somebody - but I've never gotten a parking or speeding ticket :)

Tonight  I need to rack the wine cooler as soon as I get home and then we may or may not try and go see Van Helsing.

Job meme

Ok, got this from msmemory and I was curious what my list would look like.

Make a list of all the paying jobs you've had.
  Circular Delivery (well, it wasn't a newspaper, it was a bunch of advertising circulars - what would you call it?)
  Lab Assistant (cleaning and repairing keyboards - tried to get a job at a book store or library, but I was too young)
  Voice Communications Assistant (database and networking stuff as well as telephone inventory)
  Programmer/Software Engineer/Consultant (many titles, all the same sort of work)

Yep - it's as short as I thought it would be.  I've been doing the same sort of work for the past 15 years.  Never took a retail or food related job, never babysat for money and never took a job I didn't think I'd have fun with.  Never quit a job either.  I had several that were short term (summer or co-op), and I had two companies go under while I was there, but I've never quit or been fired.  Overall I'd have to say I've been damn lucky.  The downside is a lack of breadth of experience.

Strongbow on tap

I must chastise hughcasey and kathy_the_geek for not telling me about Kildare’s.  I visited their website and discovered that not only do they have Strongbow cider on tap, but they also have Potcheen (an Irish moonshine that I happen to love).  Must visit there soon.  (Ok, hughcasey mentioned that they went there, but he didn't say they had Strongbow on tap! :)
