It's almost over.

Tomorrow is my last day at the 'graph. While I'm sad that I'll no longer see some of my friends on a daily basis, I'm excited about the new ones I'll be getting to know. I swung by my new office last night on the way home and checked on things over there. Got a brief run down on their server and backup system. It's a straightforward setup, nothing complicated. One of the first things I'm going to do when I get over there is evaluate their current IT environment and see what, if anything needs to be changed or upgraded for better performance. Wheeee!

Once I got home, I warmed up on my drums for a while then packed up my stuff for band practice. That went well and went fast. The usual group (the b's, the a's + Sharon - Stacey's sister) mounged it over to O' Charleys for some Irish food. Had a fun time there! My food was decent for the 2nd time in a row so things look to be be improving there for sure.

Oh, in other news Kailyn and I had an "incident" the other night as I was babysitting... I was teaching her how to say "My name is Kailyn" when I noticed that my legs suddenly felt damp under where she was sitting. Lifted her up and found that both legs of my jeans were soaked with pee. Nice. Brought her downstairs to her mom. There was a ladies get together thing going on in the kitchen and when they saw me and what happened, everyone was rolling. I think someone asked if I was okay or needed another pair of jeans to which I replied, "No problem, it's just urine". I don't think I ever envisioned myself saying that. My jeans remained slightly mounge for the rest of the night.

Ok, I know you might be wondering what "mounge" is. Sharon, who is from Minnesota, was inventing words last night. "Mounge" was the first one which quickly turned into things like:

Mounge chair
Teacher's Mounge
Mounge-tain range
Look's like your dog has mounge
My mounge is acting up again, etc.

Something also happened with the mis-use of the word "contents" but I can't recall exactly how we made fun of that. Maybe Kevin can elaborate in his blog.

In other travesties of the English language, my manager's manager came in and asked me how to spell "solemn" yesterday. I spelled it for her and she went back to her office. I followed her there and when I walked in, she looked at me and said "it still doesn't look right". "It doesn't look right to you because you didn't know how to spell it in the first place" (heh). I took her to www.websters.com to show her that my spelling was correct. I think I rolled my eyes at this point.
