Unemployed

Friday was my last day at Tagged, if you haven't already heard from elsewhere.  No, I don't know what I'm doing next, but I'm open to suggestions.  Being removed from the Stig team pretty much broke my heart and I couldn't really continue at Tagged working on something else.  So, it's time to find even more epic things to accomplish (although that's a tall order to fill). I'm going to miss my coworkers like crazy, but I know that in the long run this will be a good move for my health and sanity.  Although I'm reading compilers textbooks for fun anyway, so maybe I haven't entirely broken away :)  I guess at least I got a chance to say goodbye to everyone; that was immensely sad for me, since I was there for 2 years and felt like I had some kind of connection with almost all of the people who worked there.  I'm that person who always says "of course we can make room for you, pull up a chair" at lunch and I hope that's how people remember me.

For now I'm going to spend the next week hanging out with people (some of which involves visiting new companies), then I'm going to Seattle to help staff the DASH puzzle hunt on May 18th and I'll be staying around for a week or so.  I'm hosting jweill here for Memorial Day and then Shinteki Decathlon puzzle hunt is June 1st.  Then I've got to make some decisions like, when will I go visit Japan (or move back), things like that.  I also kind of want to make an effort to get rid of stuff I own so that I can feel more mobile, so that might be a good project to undertake while I have this time, so if you were ever coveting my collections of games or books or baseball cards or CDs or anything like that, this might be a good time to tell me :)
