New computer has arrived!!

The Ascend team had our 06 planning meeting today, so I didn't have to answer any calls today. That was fun. Just talked with my co-workers all day discussing the plans for next year, with a little party afterwards at a nice restaurant. Good times.

When I got home, my new computer was there waiting for me. Got a Dell XPS 400. Lots of fun upgrades to make it fast and powerful. The pictures online showed it as black/silver, but it is white/silver. I like it, looks fast just sitting there. Came with a 19inch flat screen monitor (that's as big as the TV in our bedroom!!). Here's a pic of it now before I get it all set up.

I also purchased a wireless router for our house yesterday. Being that I have the laptop from work, it will be nice to be able to bring that home and do work and still have access to the Trek network while sitting on the couch. My boss also said that I should be able to start working from home for a few days a week soon, so that's awesome! Probably only one, maybe two, days a week at most, but that will be great just for the time and gas money saving standpoint. I'll be answering support phone calls in my underwear!

Heading home this weekend! Staying at my aunt's house on Thurs night, then driving the rest of the way early Fri morning. Big Hub night on Fri night. Then celebrating Xmas at my sister's house. Probably won't be able to update until next Mon, so I hope everyone has a great Christmas!

Whoa, XPS is top o the line wicked fast. Now you can quit cycling and take up gaming fulltime and become a blob.

I work at the Hub on Friday night, me and big Dave. You are in for a treat. HS mayo lettuce, and a third pound cheese with tomato. And 15 shots of beam
