The Beginning

My first BLOG. Wow, I've really arrived, eh?

I guess I'll just start with an update. On Aug 1st, 2006, after nearly 8 years at Janus Funds, I left my cubicle for the last time. I decided to follow my passions. Since then, I have climbed in the Cascades with Mountain Madness, moved good friends to Napa, spent a month in Kelly, WY, getting my Wilderness EMT, joined another SAR team, spent time in Tahoe with my favorite group of people, and started the application process to become a wildland firefighter. No more TPS reports for me. No more silly office politics. No more "paradigms." ...alas, no more 401k...no more guaranteed paychecks...no more health insurance.

Hopefully I will be gainfully employed come March. If not?? Well, PADI could always use a new instructor!

I'm so proud of you for leaving the corporate world behind. So you like long walks on the beach, wine, and smart, beautiful women. What a coincidence I just happen to fit that description.
