Today marks the official start to a whole new everything. A new job, a new home, new friends, new everything. While I can admit to it being relatively nerve-racking, I am embracing this change because it is a great opportunity for me.

Scribbld used to be my old home. I had originally wanted Scribbld to be SceneJournal, to bring it back, back in 2007. Unfortunately someone had already snagged up the domains so we were unable to do so. Fortunately, I was able to at least get the .net domain back so here we are. We're on a much faster Internet connection in a real datacenter (thanks CrystalTech). How cool is that!?

So this is now my new home. I'll still be checking in on DeathNote and Scribbld and we'll continue to support users on the sites. I don't think we'll continue development with Scribbld though. The core code base just isn't as good and doesn't seem to be updated as often. Enough about that though!

Currently I'm down in Houston, TX. I was supposed to just be here for Monday and Tuesday but then I got an extra day cause I was going to kick it with the COO or something, but I ended up missing my flight back home so I got to hangout that extra day haha. So I'll be home tomorrow late at night.

The whole point of me coming down here was to get a job at this web hosting company. morgan is friends with these guys so she put in the good word, they flew me down here, I did some preview stuff yesterday and today they offered me the job. I'll be moving down here on August 10th which is like REALLY CLOSE. Hahaha. So what will probably happen is, I might live with the CTO for a bit until I find an apartment. That'll be cool. They're all really awesome guys, so this is going to be amazing regardless.

I'm pretty amazed at how excellent this is. I really am excited to start this all. It's like 12am local time, but I am beat. I think I'll pass out, then do whatever in the morning until my flight at 3ish. I just can't wait to get my own apartment down here and get all my stuff down here. Will be nice to just be settled in.
