After the flurry of graduation and the periphery that followed, it was nice to do absolutely nothing for a little while. Okay, so maybe 'nothing' isn't exactly accurate, but it was nice to relax for a while. Over my four month break I was able to visit distant friends and relatives, spend time with my family, and travel to distant places. I was also in one very important (and very beautiful) wedding, and attended several others. I also spent some time thinking about the past, as well as the road ahead, in preparation for the next phase of life.
Tomorrow, I begin my first day at Microsoft Corporation. I'm looking forward to being a part of a company with such a great legacy as it addresses the challenges of today and positions itself for the future. I am most excited about the vast amount of opportunity and learning potential in a Company with such extensive resources.*

So, as I make my way in the "real world," I will attempt to disseminate bits and pieces of my journey in an attempt to keep my friends and family efficiently informed. Who knows - maybe I'll even be able to depart a little wisdom and insight along the way. In any case, please read this blog with full knowledge that I do not claim to be an expert in anything in particular and that the comments and opinions contained herein are solely... blah blah blah. The official disclaimer can be found in this README.
Lastly, I promise to try to be humble with both my intentions and my postings. Anything resembling self promotion, etc. should be promptly reported by clicking on the "comment" button. Thanks for stopping by, and hope you enjoy.

Welcome back.
I can't wait to start reading 2.0 - but being a dedicated reader of CD 1.0 I am surprised I never saw the Beta release. Or maybe since you are a Microsoft man now you don't believe in Beta :)
