Day One

So, I'm living in Houston now. Amarillo to Austin to Houston. I just realized that if I one day move to Seattle I will have lived in Amarillo, followed by AHS. Which was my rival high school. Tascosa for the win! Woo! Haha.

That's not happening for a long time though, and after today I'm really ok with that.

Returning to the HP office here in Houston felt right. This morning, I was sitting there waiting to get my badge, and I recognized Adam's old manager. She was picking up her new intern, and I had this rush of old memories from when I was an intern there. It still feels like yesterday Luke and I were creating our little app. Or Adam, Brandon and I were out causing trouble and making the town ours.

Now, everything has changed. I'm in the main building, so I'm not isolated from everyone. Hopefully this means I get to meet a lot of people. Also, I'll be doing development work and such which is exactly what I wanted. The other new hire, Tim, is a Business Analyst from North Carolina who seems like a really awesome guy.

The rest of my team is really nice and cool too! We spent most of our lunch talking about X-Men and that sold me forever. Haha. There's another Longhorn on the team, though she'll be working more with Tim. Our manager is tons of fun, and he gets along well with the entire team which is great.

Not to jinx myself or anything, but I get pretty bomb managers! =D

The next couple of days will probably be me getting everything set up and working. Can't seem to start a job without having laptop difficulties.

SPEAKING OF WHICH

My work laptop is pretty snazzy and I kinda fell in love with it already. It's super awesome so I can do super dev things, which is kind of intimidating, but means I'LL BE DOING DEV THINGS! So there's that. =D

Overall, I'm pretty psyched for all of this. The next chapter is looking to be totally swank. Just gotta meet new people.

And remember to eat. I need food. XD

Love you! Off to food!
