I've been hibernating a bit over the last few weeks - time to chill out.  New Year's was nice and chilled a few of us for dinner and drinks at Barry's & Eoin's.


Then much to my dismay, wires were crossed and my start date with my new job got pushed forward a week and a half :( but its all good.  These things happen.  Unforutnately though I did have to cancel my snowboarding trip to Briancon - I figured better to make a good impression.   So my new job is 
Performance Engineer for
 Sun Microsystems.  Its a steep learning curve but so far so good.
