Where We Start
Listening: Where We Start by David Gilmour. You should click that.
Time for some lighter fare I’d say. A BIG thank you to everyone who has checked out what I’ve shared so far; the fact that this many people are interested/reading really means a lot to me. It’s rewarding when you start something like this, that you say is for yourself, but hope others get something out of it too. In my first week up I’ve had close to 600 hits and am averaging 5 comments per post; and that’s not including the people who have commented/sent me messages on Facebook or contacted me via text. Either way, I’m stoked about it. And lots of other stuff…
I’d like to follow up on something from my first post on the eclipse real quick though. As it turns out, my positivity comment was spot on; two days after posting about the eclipse, I received the job offer from the company I mentioned (although my start date will be Jan. 10th, not the 3rd. No complaints here…). Those of you who know me know this is a pretty big deal. And that was before I found out about this. This is a HUGE deal in my world (for those who didn’t follow the links, the brewpub will be on the roof of the building I’ll be working in). Dogfish Head is not only one of my favorite breweries, but it’s largely considered one of America’s best; and from what I hear, Eataly has pretty quality Italian food. It’s perks like this (and this, across the street as well) that make life at the grind that much more enjoyable. 2011 looks to be pretty promising.
Speaking of enjoyable, nothing like a two-foot snow storm to kick off winter/snowboard season. It may just be me, but I love being snowed in knowing that tomorrow your entire world is going to be covered in pillows. With 2 weeks before starting my new job, I’m going to try and do as much as I can before surrendering myself to my career/company. I’m looking at Tuesday, possibly Wednesday at Hunter Mountain to start off the season right. Interested parties hit me up; the more the merrier is always a rule of thumb.
That’s it for now; hope everyone had an awesome holiday and a safe New Years. Not sure if I’ll post before New Year’s Eve, maybe some sort of resolution post a la my 10 in 2010. If not, you can definitely expect a post in the early stages of 2011. Enjoy the snow and this time of year; that’s an order!
