Aug. 19th, 2005 12:00 amWe now return to your regularly scheduled postings. I intend to blog much more often now.
As of 11.23pm PST,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
amethest is now in Japan working a year for AEON. I stayed over with her last night, we had a buffet dinner at the River Rock Casino (with her parents), and then I proceeded to repack her suitcases and boxes of stuff for Japan. I really don't know why some people find it so hard to pack efficently - take for example the clothes iron Laura wanted to Marissa to take. Utsonomiya is almost the appliance capital of Japan, and undoubtedly Marissa's co-workers will have an iron - that's 5lbs. right there you don't need to pack. Even worst case just find a dirt cheap one in Japan, and leave it behind afterwards, for the next person.
Last Saturday I proposed to her, and she accepted. I'm not a verbose person, so I don't have much more to say on that matter. She has blogged about the ring and the evening in her journal, so have a look there for more information.
My new job starts 9am Monday 22nd August, as a network administrator/technical engineer for Net-Conex Business solutions. It sounds like I'll have an office somewhere downtown (not entirely confirmed yet), and I'm probably going to spec out the office network.
As always, in the usual fashion, I got a phonecall out of the blue today asking about my availability for doing an urgent small Gentoo deployment. I think I can fit it in somewhere (a few evenings and a weekend), and I can use the extra cash.
However, for now I shall consider sleep, as I am short on it.
