Well folks, the interview went really well yesterday. The position is a big step down in pay, but the hours are more conducive to me working on building my side business. The location is pretty ideal too and when I saw the CTO’s office, I knew it was a good match. He had a nice new shiny iMac sitting next to a MacBook Pro (I’ve got an earlier generation iMac and a MacBook Pro at home) – and he was running Visual Studio on Windows in Parrallels on the Mac (just like I do). He showed me how fast VS opens and runs on the Mac, and I smiled to myself, “sweet, this guys gets it.”

Viv is sitting next to me on the couch while I do my best to blog, finish a redesign quote for a friend of Jackie’s, and not pay attention to Sponge Bob. She noticed me pulling up a legal agreement for the 13 Stories song I cowrote (that I need to fax to the agent today) and she asked what it was…

Me : Well, do you remember seeing the pictures of Daddy with long hair and wearing silly clothes?
Viv: And everyone thought you were a girl?
…

The kids and I read a bunch of books last night – Skippyjon Jones in the Doghouse (fun and silly), Stone Soup (good one from the author of Zen Shorts), Train to Somewhere (sad, but nice ending), and Going Home (loved the illustrations, the story drags a bit but ends well).
