Haha. Yeah, that was not quite six years ago now. Damn, I didn't realize it had been that long. My knee is still trashed from it and won't ever be the same.

Going to the Fresno State game with Zac today for my birthday... and there's no rain forecast this time, thank God.

From one of my all-time favorite songs

No trophy, no flowers, no flash bulbs, no wine.
He's haunted by something he cannot define.
Bowel shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster truck force.
In his mind he's still driving, still making the grade.
She's hoping time that her memories will fade,
Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns,
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

Cause he's going the distance.
He's going for speed.
She's all alone, all alone in her time of need.

Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse!

Oh, and I was contacted yesterday by someone at a headhunting agency looking to hire someone for a local Senior Network Administrator position. I'm hoping and praying that it pans out... cause boy do I ever need a new job with all of the shit going on right now.

So much for that... didn't even get a phone interview out of it. The only thing I can figure is that I live too far away to be available to be on call, because I'm perfectly qualified for the position. Sigh, I really give up at this point.

I got a response back, they had interviewed a candidate already who had a stronger healthcare background... and they're evidently a minority, which means they didn't have to interview anyone else. Really fucking sucks being a white male in this job market... especially when you don't even get the chance to discuss your own intangibles that you might bring to a job.

Oh well, just the way my life goes I guess.

So, my company is doing a logo contest at our Christmas party on Friday, though isnce it has to be corporately approved it isn't guaranteed that the winning entry will be our new logo. But anyway, since there is a cash prize involved, I figured I'd throw a little effort into it.
