We&#8217;ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll start way back 4th of July weekend at Sidney&#8217;s. I told you I was going to go, but sorta skipped talking about being there. It was as expected, so pretty cool. I got tons of food, and got to hang w\/ a Pat and Sid and Lauren and Yusuke, so the best people basically. I got to go inner-tubing a little bit, although not enough. And I, of course, got to see some fireworks. They were pretty up close and personal in this case, which is fine, I guess. I&#8217;m not a big fireworks person either way, so whatever.<\/p>\n<p>Moving on. Umm&#8230; new internship thing. 7 days. 1 full week that I spent almost no time training on. I&#8217;ve gone to some meetings, looked a bunch of code, written some stuff. I&#8217;ve got a lot of stuff to catch up on. It&#8217;s hard to understand all the stuff they wrote already, and know where to find stuff, but I&#8217;m getting there. I feel I was actually pretty productive Friday, so that&#8217;s good. The situation is pretty relaxed. Come in when you want, breaks when you want, leave when you want, within certain restrictions, obviously, but it&#8217;s all good. I&#8217;m hopeful things continue in a vein similar to the first week, just with me getting more competent.<\/p>\n<p>The other news is that I&#8217;m <a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=1342+Haupt+Ave,+Richland,+WA+99354&amp;sll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;sspn=48.77566,76.376953&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=46.288832,-119.271679&amp;spn=0.001309,0.001684&amp;t=h&amp;z=19\">renting a house<\/a> in Richland with Aaron. It was really <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/31072976@N05\/sets\/72157621540328391\/\">messed up when we saw it<\/a>, but the rent is cheap so we went for it. Mom and Dad and Aaron and I have all put considerable hours over the last week and a half cleaning it up, and it&#8217;s to the point where it&#8217;s livable, at least mostly. Internet is going to get installed next week, supposedly, so once that&#8217;s there I could definitely live there. It&#8217;s within biking distance of work, so that&#8217;s much preferable to the current 30 minute drive, so I plan to get in as soon as I can stand it there. (meaning there&#8217;s internet)<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s the gist. I&#8217;ve been very busy. I spend most of my free time corresponding w\/ my lovely gf, because I like her and we&#8217;re far apart. She&#8217;s gonna get to visit on Wednesday, though. Sidney, supposedly, is gonna drive over that same weekend or Thursday or something. So, Yay!<\/p>\n<p>In the mean time Yusuke&#8217;s came and visited this weekend. He forgot his macbook power cord so he&#8217;s been using mom&#8217;s netbook all weekend. And we&#8217;re doing wii fit. We have to work on our posture. Pat&#8217;s around so we went swimming in his pool today instead of working on the house, which I think is a good weekend move, but the decision was made by Pat and Yusuke, they&#8217;re the drivers. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s a good update, right?
