I got a job!!!
Yay!!! I found I job!!!! I will be going to work at Hantel, a medical device consulting firm in the east bay. In a nutshell, I will be serving as a subject matter expert to product development teams; supervising engineers, machinists, and technicians in the design development and manufacturing of medical devices; and collaborating with medical device clients and venture capitalists to define and direct their project requirements.
I'm back from the dead
It has been forever since I have had a chance to write... Such is life right now, waaaay too busy, and not enough time to attend to fun projects like the blog.
A Cyclist's Soliloquy
To attack, or not to attack, that is the question:
Always, ALWAYS check the "To:" line
So, I just learned a really really important lesson about email. Always, ALWAYS check the "To" line...
Horrible oversight!
ARRGGGGHH!! Due to what I would like to think of as a technical problem, but possibly my misunderstanding of our blog system, I just discovered a whole batch of comments that have been made, to which I never replied. My apologies to all who have taken the time to read my blog, and who have been so wonderful in contributing feedback. Now that I have identified the problem, such oversight will not happen again. My best to all, and my sincere apologies!
Learning Curve
Ohhhh... So THAT'S how job searches work...
Eeyore
I feel like Eeyore lately. Blah. I was right, I didn't get the job, or the living situation that I wanted (see last post). I was in a bike wreck racing and I haven't been able to ride for two weeks. I think not riding is causing bad chemicals to float around in my brain.
A well deserved break
Whew! Long time since my last entry--have been hard at work, feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of my latest projects but hanging in there.
Yay, a photo!
Finally, a recent photo! I picked up 3rd place at Ross' Epic Hill Climb. This was a great event that was a fundraiser for Ross Dillon, who at the age of 25 was hit by a car going 50mph while he was riding his bike. He is alive, and is making an amazing recovery, as he started his journey in a vegetative state. Five years later he can stand with support for short periods, and is beginning to speak in sentences. He and his family are so brave and strong, but it takes a lot of money to give Ross the therapy and care he needs, so the Hill Climb was a USA Cycling sanctioned event that served as a fundraiser for the family. They didn't fool around with the "Epic" aspect--18 mile ride, 7 miles flat, then 11 miles uphill, gaining about 1000 feet in the last mile! BRUTAL!! But worth it.
