Leaving Las Nuevas Yorko

See ya kids, I am heading back West. I wish I could spend more time here in NYC but unfortunately all good things must come to an end. I wish I was going to move back sooner but I have a bunch of work to complete in Los Angeles before my boss would like me to transfer. I might consider buying a place out in Brooklyn in the meantime.

I opted to take the E train out to the airport because I figured the traffic would be bad on the roads with the drizzle and rush hour approaching us. I would have appreciated a car seat instead of a subway ride, I don't think I needed it.

I am kind of nervous flying, I do it to many times to worry but I still do. This might be my fourth trip in just under six weeks. The train is more fun to me too, I get to use EVDO.

I bought two movies today from Virgin across the street and ripped one of them on the desk of my co-worker. So on the plane ride home tonight, I will be watching and old movie I downloaded from my house "Cloak and Dagger" with Henry Thomas and Dabney Coleman. The movie I ripped is "I Am Legend". I never saw it, so I don't know what to expect out of Will Smith. I bought the Golden Compass but the new movies are coming out with a new dcess that linux doesn't natively come with.

Tomorrow I am going to be so jet lagged from the three hour time difference as well as drinking on the plane. I am sitting in the bar right now. I also have to do a load stress test on the server matrix we have setup as well as some calculations. The good part is that its all on New York time which should free up the evening to hang with Erik at Magicopolis. I figure its going to be quiet weekend filled with magic and pseudo packing.

When I get back tonight, I don't know if the number 3 rapid bus is working after 11:15pm so I plan on car service. The bus is $.75 and the car service is like $60, its a crime. I can expense it but its the principle. I know my house is a mess, a bit, and I feel I failed a little because I am not making plans to move yet. I know I will miss winter, maybe but I had so much fun doing nothing but work in New York. I only went out like four times this week, the rest I slacked. I still had fun and talked quite a bit of tech. Maybe I need a new position.

Well, I have minutes till my flight and I need a little time travel juice in my blood before this ship starts rocking and rolling. People of New York, I love you and hope to be yelling at you on the subway soon. People of Los Angeles, I didn't mean anything I said and I hope you take me back.
