Resume Fun, Computer Formatting

I had a bunch of thoughts lately, and rememeber thinking I should blog about…like they were profound or something, but now I can’t remember any of them. All in all, that is probably good for you, cuz I’m guessing they weren’t that profound if I fogot them.

I formatted my computer last night…it was pissing me off. It will run faster now, which is nice. I also discovered that my computer hates my second video card…which means blue screen of death if it is in, and subsequently I don’t get to use my dual monitor setup. Anyone know where I can get a good priced GeForce 6600GT AGP version w/ dual monitor outputs. I might just be saving a couple hundred bucks for that, cuz I was getting pretty darned used to using two monitors.

I got my resume just about ready. After I reinstall a few more programs I should be able to finish it up and send it to a couple of recruiters who have already called and asked me for it after they saw I updated my resume on monster.com. This week has been good…almost no cold calling, pretty busy with web-leads and old customers. Also, I’ve started quietly avoiding cold-calling by tying up loose ends on some of my older projects. I’m hoping my boss doesn’t notice I’m trying to avoid cold-calling. Next week we are going to install some CRM software that will keep track of which calls I make, and leads and stuff….that will be the end of me avoiding cold calls w/o arousing suspicion or my bosses wrath (one or the other).

Hmm…other than that, Dirk, can you try to give my coat to Caleb and Jenny when they are down for Steph and Isreals wedding this weekend (at church, or the wedding if you are going or something). Trying to avoid the hassel of shipping the thing if possible.

I think I’m going to copy these over to my normal blog after I get a new job…does that seem like a bad idea? I doubt anyone will care once I move on…but I’m wondering if there is a reason that would be bad.
