So here it is, the second of January. I wonder how many days it will be before I accidentally write "2004" on something.

I just got back from a wonderful, romantic and fun weekend with

emmalyon. The weather was with us and we grilled steak out on the deck in 50 degree weather, watched movies, went shopping (B&N is the bane of both of our existences), and generally had a great time. I'm hoping to go down there again in two weeks for the MLK Day weekend.

Which brings me to the fact that I am taking the plunge...tomorrow I am about to start posting and emailing my resume to places in New Jersey. Phase 1 will start tomorrow. It feels kind of weird, like I'm toying with the comfort zone I've had for so many years at home, but on the other hand I need to get out of that zone, simply because I don't need it anymore. It's time for me to move onward and upward. And I think I'm incredibly lucky that I've been offered this opportunity to share this move with someone I love and care about deeply.

So yeah. Changes. Lots of 'em coming up soon.

More on this later.

And on a side note: I had WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much sugar this weekend. Cake, coffee, and other delectables with that cursed additive. I'm sure I'll be bouncing off the walls for the next few days...
