So the week was pretty busy, but standard as far as a work week goes. I am now totally setup at work and busy coding away.

This Saturday was a real treat since I got to go up and visit my aunt "Sugie" and cousin Annie, and I must admit that they are a couple of the most fun people to be around. So I drove up and met up with them on Saturday and we had a good time relaxing and doing little chores around the ranch. We also got to watch the the turkey's flock to roost for the night, which is a pretty amazing spectacle. We had prime seats too, so the turkey's actually flew right over our heads ... wow 8-)

Michael also came and joined us for some dinner and surprisingly a little karaoke. Singing has never really interested me that much, but I must say that we ended up having a really fun time. Then somehow Annie and I got into a heated debate over the whole Iraq issue, which was really good because she is much better educated about it than I am, so I got some good info.

Today I dropped Annie off at the airport for her flight home and have just been doing some stuff around the house and making sure that everything is ready for my trip to Chicago on Tuesday. I am really juiced about the trip. Its gunna be a blast. Next entry will be from the windy city.
