I have been invited to spend New Year’s and my birthday in Rio De Janeiro.  I’m going with one of my very best friends in the world, Nick, who evacuated with my family during Hurricane Katrina.  We always have a great time together, so I’m sure it will be the best vacation.  I’m marking all the sites and restaurants I’d like to check out on the Lonely Planet site.  

It snowed in New Orleans this morning!  I got into work early because I had a presentation today, but moments after I arrived it started snowing.  I went outside with a few folks who were already in the office as well and played a bit before going back to working on my proposal… which I still have a lot to do on.  Even though it’s an opportunity for me to gain experience in program development, I still have a lot to learn.  I don’t have any training in program development, even though it is something I want to do.  I will keep on working though, and refine the proposal until it’s perfect.  I expect better of myself, and I will produce.  I’ll make it the best it can be before I leave for Christmas vacation.
