Well new job is good. They take care of us . There seems to be a lot of free food around all the time. With the occasional beer. The projects are not as interesting as I am used to, big hotels and the like, but they have deep pockets so that is very nice.
The size is daunting. So many people. So far so good...

Today:
Roommate. "I forgot to pay the gas bill so we have no hot water. They are coming on Sat to turn it back on"
My last day at crappy job:
Me: "Hey boss can I get my last cheque?"
Boss: "I'm broke, waiting for X client to pay. Maybe Monday."
1234567......................
....999999999999.
Deep breath.
But I start designing High-rises on Tuesday.

Pfegh to roommates. I had a roommate that got the electricity AND the phone cut off. Then he got us evicted.
Good to hear you'll be moving on to better things with the job, though.

Gave notice at work yesterday, this is my last week there woot!
Guess I am going to have to get used to shaving on a regular basis.
Walked around Pasadena today. In was somewhat disappointed. It was a Mall without the roof. All national chains. I had a hard time finding something to eat that was local. I avoid Chain restaurants when ever possible.

I got the GPU today. A Quadro 1000, for $ 100 off Ebay.
A good deal or so I thought. I needed a DVI cable. $80 and the GPU is so long that my disks wont fit in the case with the GPU.
The dull thud you hear is me banging my head against the wall.

Welcome to the Halo!
I had hoped to bring news that my new graphics card make the boobies larger, kind of like a rear view mirror, but it wasn't delivered today. Damn.
I met with one of the principals at the new firm. He made me an offer.

It's always nice to get a raise, as well as a fresh new jobbie! I'd take a lateral move myself just to be doing something other than what I am right now.
Coachella looks to have a couple of bands I wouldn't mind seeing, 'cept it's out there in Cali and Sunday's already sold out. I'll just hold out until they come back through for the big show later this year. At least then all the big, pretty lights and shit will be there too and I'll have had more than one or two chances to have heard the new album. Greater tradgedies have transpired in my life, LOL!

I drove down to Tustin to get some plans stamped by a geotech engineer.
Somewhere between Long Beach and Tustin there is a 300 foot mountain of fresh baby poop. I couldn't see it. but it made its presence known.
I have been dealing with the city as of late obtaining Building permits.
"Tuttle?"
" Are you Tuttle?"
Labyrinthine doesn't come close to describing it....

I spent all day Saturday walking around Silver Lake, Thai Town and Hollywood. It may sound weird but I actually felt like I fit in. I live in Beverly Wood, the area between Culver city and Beverly Hills. I feel like a turd in a punch bowl here, not identifying with the people I interact with. They are nice people but its kind of suburbia...

A couple of days ago I decided to head west on Pico to find something new to eat. I found this sausage place and figured I haven't had a Brot in a wile. So I ordered and waited. Then I waited some more. Then some more just to dispel the notion that I wasn't waiting.
45 Min later my food was ready and I was...

It got up to 60 today, finally Winter has died for the year. Too bad the only beach around here is adjacent to tepid, chigger filled water or I might be tempted to take an early dip myself...
