Opening Blog Entry

This is my first entry. I really don't know where to start so I'll just ramble. I've been at work all night long. We had a database issue and it needed attention immediately. I'm a Systems Engineer looking to move into management soon. I'll be starting an MBA in the fall at the USC Marshall School of Business.

My wife and I will have our third child within a week. If he doesn't come by Friday next week, my wife will be induced. We have a little girl age 4 and a boy age 2. Kids are great. They're fun at every stage so far. I don't know that I'll be able to say that when they get to be teenagers though.

I got a new iPhone two weeks ago. I waited in line for 9 hours! The sad thing is that they were readily available at the Apple Store hours after launch time. Oh well. I had to make sure I could get one. I got so worked by the whole "buy every Nintendo Wii that hits the stores so you can sell it on ebay" deal that I wasn't going through that again. Besides, waiting in line was a lot of fun. There were all kinds of different personalities and I was lucky to be in line next to a few really nice people.

I love hockey! My favorite team is the San Jose Sharks! I'm from San Jose. I grew up there from 9 years old to 18. After that, I joined the military (US Navy). I spent 10 years in the Navy as an Electronics Technician. When I got out, I finished my education at UC San Diego and became an Engineer.

Tired... Morning status meeting......then sleep.
