3600 miles later.
Since accepting the position at Innovation First I have driven over 3600 miles. Starting the weekend of Nov 3rd for a house hunting trip and ending Monday the 10th with an exhausting trip with a U-Haul in the rain with bad headlights. We're officially residents of Greenville Texas and look forward to a lengthy stay. If anyone knows where the unpacking gnomes and/or fairies are hanging out these days, please herd them toward my place.
Thanks to everyone who helped me load and unload the truck!
Moving Day Approacheth
We are picking up the U-Haul on Dec 8th and will be loading it through Sunday afternoon. If you want to help, give me a call or IM me. We won't be in a hurry, and aside from the furniture, most of the stuff will be staged in the garage.

Coding Horror: Remember, This Stuff Is Supposed To Be Fun
If you love software as much as I do, you deserve to work at a company where people come to work not to punch a clock, but because they love software, too. You deserve to work at a company where software engineering is respected. You deserve to work at a company where peers meet to enjoy building software together.*
This pretty much sums up my reasons for moving on.
The Times They are a Changin'
Or at least, my employment situation will be. I've accepted a position with Innovation First and will be moving to Greenville, Texas in the next 2-3 weeks. This is a pretty exciting move to a small and exciting company. I'll post more about it after I get started.
