Its a damn good day. It started off a little early, but it just kept on plugging. I had to get up at like 9 am to do stuff with the awning guy. Then I went and passed out in the basement on the couch. Woke up, watched the Love Hina DVD I got from Dan (not on this blog) Shine. It could've been about a hojilion times better. Although it did stay true to the book in one respect. I couldn't watch all of the first episode of it. Just too horribly painful.

Then it turned into the most beautiful Autumn day. In Chicago we get about 2 days of Spring and 2 days of Autumn. Otherwise its beastly hot or frigidly cold. And seeing as its been getting colder, I figured that was all she wrote for the nice weather. But once again, oh mean mistress that is lake effect weather, you proved me wrong. Just a gorgeous day. Well, I was only outside of the house for night part, but it was a gorgeous night as well.

So I get home from being at the coffee house alone and I check the email. I have one. It was from Microsoft. They are granting me an interview. That's right. I'm going to interview with the evil empire. And if get the job, I promise nothing but the best of code. Maybe I and I alone will turn that company around. Of course what's waaay more likely is that I'll get one of those damn problems that they have, not be able to solve it and they won't let me finish the interview. Yep, pessimsm is still in full force. Of course, this also means that I'll be down in Champaign for the halloween weekend. To that I say, bring the fun. Because this guy is gonna be getting wacky.

And yes, I will be financing this trip to champaign with loose change I have been collecting for 3 years or so. Heh, I think that's hilarious.

And now, sweet, sweet dreams of working for the evil empire of software.
