2. How did your first day go?
And screw you, at least you're home now! I have 2 more hours. :mad:

But then again, you're stuck in Texas and I...well, I'm going to the beach tonight. :hi:

3. It was...well, it was.
I don't think this is a hard job, once you get used to doing things. But, it's a hard job to explain. You really have to learn by doing, I think.

And yeah, I'm home, but it took damn near an hour with Friday traffic. x( This morning, it took about 20 minutes to get down there.

Going to the beach? :grr:
