... phew! End of first week on the new job. I'm tired, to put it mildly. Now that I have to follow a decent routine again it's been rough adjusting. Edward even suggested we take another road trip this weekend, is that man crazy?! *shudder* no more vibrating in moving vehicles for a while... I have had enough of long commutes (it takes me about 1 hour on average to get to work in the a.m., coming back gets worse, welcome to Toronto...)

Where did the weekend go? It's Sunday again and Edward's turn for first day at work. He's quite excited about it. Me too, as it'll mean settling into another new routine for us. Work is starting to ramp up quickly, I got staffed on a project already. Don't know if it's luck or just timing. Can't wait to see what it's like, although I've already found out my project is going to be a heck of a wild ride from the looks of it. They have no idea what they're doing, development is almost done, but there's no plan and no documentation, the director is tearing her hair out and I'm supposed to go recover their whole "troubled" state of things... sounds like fun (!) I think at this point, anything I do is going to be better than what they have!

Well, more on that next time... The weather has started to get visibly cooler here and the leaves are also turning. It's actually really pleasant. Not gonna last long though, so I'm enjoying it all I can for now. I have a feeling winter is peeking her head around the corner already, wait - I'm not ready yet... brrrr!
