    Warning.....kind of long...

    So basically I'm the ultimate lurker...you probably hate me already but perhaps out of sheer curiousity and boredom you will read on...

    Anyway...I signed up about a year ago and made a few posts complaining about how I was in my first job out of college and how it sucked. I basically lamented the fact that I couldn't stay up drinking red bull and playing Unreal Tournament until 4:00 AM, and I couldn't go out getting piss drunk on weeknights. I thought leaving school was going to be the end of my life!

    All of you gave me lots of words of encouragement and I just wanted to thank you and give you an update. I just took 2 weeks off work (the longest vacation of my "professional" career) so it was a good time to reflect on what I've accomplished so far.

    Things really aren't so bad now. In the last year I have gotten together with a wonderful lady, learned an insane amount about building websites, saved up and bought a car, and rode in the best powder of my life.

    Oh and I have a new job now where I can come in wearing printed t-shirts, jeans with holes, swiming trunks, or whatever else. I'm happy about that because it makes me feel like myself again.

    I pretty much read these posts everday to keep me entertained at work, and I will try to post more often because I think I decided I like you guys. Thanks for reading.
