Yeah I've Been Busy
Learning, Brewing, Chilling, etc..
Don't you love how everytime you run into someone you haven't seen in a
while it always comes to "I've been busy". Most of the time you mean that
you can't think of what the hell you've been up to. True enough. Lately I've
been able to tell people I've been busy for a reason.
Learning Microsoft .NET 2.0 Development
Well as most know I now work at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana. For the
last four months I've split my time between learning their systems and
learning how to improve existing systems using the latest development tools.
Programming Web Service and using an insanely cool too known as SQL Server
Intergration Services. SSIS is a tool that makes hours into minutes and
minutes into seconds. It's truly the horse of Enterprise.
Developing Websites
Believe it or not when I'm not programming computers I'm building stuff for
the web. Working on
Best of Baton
Rouge,
Live After Five
and prospecting on other possible endeavours.
Brewing Beer
Some close friends and I fell into the millenia old practice of brewing
beer. It's been great fun and educational on one of America's favorite
pastimes. As Ben Franklin said "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us
to prosper".
Chilling
That's right I've been just hanging out. Splitting time between watching my
big screen and working out when I'm not doing the above. Believe it or not
the guy that weighed 135 lbs when he graduated high school is working hard
to get under 180 lbs.
All in all life is good. Gina will be a mom soon. I'm feeling old.
St. Patrick's Day Picture
Here's a cool picture of me, Michelle, Big-0, Scott and Chase in the
Background. That was a fun day.
