Somebody out there loves me! I just got a call this morning on a tantalizing job in Burlington. It would be as an all-around Linux guru for a nice, profitable company. In short, it’s right up my alley. I’ve got a phone interview Friday afternoon and we’ll take it from there.

My friend Tanner Lovelace just forwarded me a Sales Engineering position with his West Raleigh company. Being a sales engineer at Netraverse was probably the most fun I’ve had in a job. Of course, working for the illustrious Alan Boyd had a lot to do with that, too.

After lunch I’m off to visit with a friend’s boss to chat about becoming a network consultant for her company. I’d be farmed out to their clients’ offices to set up software and whip their networks into shape. It’s probably a lot of Windoze work, so I’d have to bite the bullet, but it could grow into something interesting.

All in all, things are not as bleak as I was making them out to be earlier this week. I’m getting over a cold (same one Hallie has) and my mood is improving now that I’m feeling better.

Lots of possiblities ahead!
