12:32 pm - Employed Again! ...Or Rather, Soon...
Today, I officially accepted an offer to start working for Akamai Technologies again, this time in San Mateo, California, starting June 16th. I'll be a Senior Network Operations Engineer, which is a step up from my previous Akamai position. This means that, while I'm still looking for work in the (very) short-term, I've got a new job on the horizon. ...on the west coast.

Phew. That's more or less over with. Now just the worrying about moving to California. :)

In the unlikely event that you don't know anyone out there, I know a million geeks out there.

Thanks! I may take you up on that. I don't know many gamers out in that area.

Though, I will miss you guys when you're gone.

I am planning a trip to CA in August, perhaps we can meet up at Disneyland or some such?

Quite possible. Once Bryn heads out. I'll probably be heading out a few months before her.

FYI, do some planning aforehand if Disneyland is the meeting place. It's about 5-7 hours by car south of your new home. . .

I ended up commenting on Bryn's LJ, as I saw the news first there due to the Friends Page layout.

*hug*
I'm happy for you to have found the next gig so quickly! I need to get off my ass and find my next gig.

Thanks. I feel bad, particularly for the games I'm leaving in the midst of, but real life trumps game, I suppose. :)

Congrats on the new job. It'll of course be sad to lose Castle N and its wonderful inhabitants, but by the sound of it, there's an awesome future in store for the two of you. :)

On the other hand, the Scion game is now totally borked.
