google

so i finally figured out how to get a google email address. and then i figured out you can personalize your google search page. i love it! i changed the google logo to something snowy and added quite a few add-ons like a binary clock and links to my favorite comic strips and a verse-of-the-day. it's pretty great and i'd recommend it to anyone.

at work this week, we finally got our modular furniture put in. our office looks so professional now. it's pretty amazing the steps that we've gone through in the past 12 months to turn this office around. and i have gotten to see most of it except maybe the finishing touches. that reminds me: my last day of work here is august 4th. and then i move on the 5th (not sure exactly where yet, but probably bloomington). and then i start work at masters bros as an electrician. i'll be starting at the bottom of the totem pole and working without air conditioning. later today i'm going to drive around bloomington, checking out some houses for rent. hopefully neal will be able to move in with me. anyone know any guy looking to move to bloomington in august and need a place to live? let me know.

last night was katrina's last night in chambana so sam and pam furrer had a brat cookout at his house. fantastic brats! and then we watched the last four minutes plus overtime of the illinois-arizona game for old times sake. sam and pam always invite the whole u of i yg out to watch the illinois basketball games at their house. good times, good times. anyhoo, i was riding my bike home from work yesterday and it really hit me: in two weeks, i'll be leaving u of i and urbana and champaign behind. it actually made me a little sad to think about because i've really come to love this place. i've been here long enough that i've seen people and places grow and i know what it was like before certain buildings were added or remodeled. i know this campus like the back of my hand. it's going to be sad to leave so i'll have to come down and visit often. [sigh] so many memories...

It is soo sad to leave, but you will only be in Bloomington, so you will still be close. I think we all need to move on with our lives at some point, it just vaires how far away we move.

I am pretty sure that you did not use the shift key to write that post, oh wait you do have ()'s.
