this morning i was contemplating about driving to chicago instead of flying there. for a variety of reasons of course. but thought better of it and decided against it. reasons for not doing it being, 1) i'll be driving alone, 2) it's too freakin far (~1000 miles from longmont to chicago.. one way), 3) and i don't have too much time (just have friday and tuesday off), and 4) driving through nebraska and iowa isn't exactly a good idea of enjoying the scenery (they're flat as far as your eyes can see!). i might change my mind and still do it though, but don't bet your house on it.

the day's been pretty hectic. honestly i think i've done a great job 'hiding' from the hustle and bustle of the disc drive industry in the last few days. but work's work. ain't that bad really, just having a difficult time understanding some issues that i'm not at all familiar with. and trying to do failure analysis on a non-failing part (the irony of it). at least i got to pick up on some new stuff.

i guess it's pretty much a done deal with my sister's wedding. nikah in june (06-06-06) and wedding reception in august (08-12-06). unfortunately i will only be able to be back for the latter. this would be one big celebration.. the first in the family. very happy :) well.. stay out of trouble and have a great weekend. God bless!
