Imp Ending Slackerdom

(click picture for a larger version)

An interesting period of my life is drawing to a close. Slackerdom is over; I'm going back to work.

I'll also be leaving North Carolina and SAS Institute after almost nine years (counting this Leave of Absence). Both have been very good to me and will be missed. And who knows, I may be back some day.

In the fourth week of April I will be moving out to Seattle, Washington to take a job with Amazon.com. I'll be working on their supply chain software (inventory/shipping/etc.)

The next few weeks will be a blur. There's a lot of people I need to meet up with again before I ship out. I'll be visiting SAS and making rounds. I'll also set up a time to sit out on Torero's back patio to throw back a few margaritas and reminisce about the MVA W-layer and the indefatigable JBI project. I guess I'll need a similar event for non-work friends that don't speak Nerd.

That's all for now. Start checking out airfare to Seattle and remember to order lots of books online!

Ugh. You punk. We'll have to all get together for one last hoorah before you ship out!

I guess I'll finally have to subscribe to Amazon Prime.

Yep, we definitely need to get together before you move on to bigger and better things on the opposite coast.
