General things I find of interest.

3 Offers

Well, I managed to get 3 offers it appears. Apparently, this many offers is very rare, so procedures are a bit different. I have all the groups talk to me some more, and then I have to decide between them. I was not told how much the offers were, just that they would be the same regardless of which I choose. I guess I will have to see which looks most interesting…

New site

Just a quick post to let you all know that I have moved the blog to a new site. I got tired of the unreliability of rosehosting.com and so Matthew and I went together to get a server with about 3 times the capacity from unixshell.com. We are splitting the cost, and I am paying $.50 more per month. Hopefully this will mean a lot less downtime, so there shouldn’t be long outages lasting a few days any more.

On the Plane

I thought that I would write a post while I was on the plane. I had the time, and since I already had one post stored on the computer, it really doesn’t make much difference to make another. I am currently flying first class back to DFW. It is much, much nicer than flying in the rest of the plane. I actually have room for the computer to open the screen all the way, in addition to not having it pressed against my chest.

More Flights

Everything was going well. I showed up to the interview about 30 minutes beforehand and everything seemed fine. It took the receptionist a while to find the my information, but I expected this was due to the change in location to Silicon Valley. I was wrong. I was in the wrong place! They meant to send me to Seattle and changing it to Silicon Valley was a mistake. The result: I was to fly to Seattle at 5pm.

Fun with Flights

Well, I am now in Mountain View, CA, after some fun with the flights… It started in College Station. The flight was supposed to leave at 2:02 or something like that. Everything was going fine until they told us the weather in Houston has delayed them an hour. Then, we got on the plan and were ready to leave around 3. Then they were told to delay another 20 minutes. Finally, we got underway around 3:20 or so, but didn’t land until 4:30.
