Change is in the air

My company decided to sell off my division a couple months ago.... The sale is finalized & I have "new hire" orientation tomorrow. We'll see how things go. Looks like I'll lose a few days of vacation with the new company starting in '09. Benefits seem OK, I'll know more tomorrow. At least it won't affect the trip this year. I'll see how far I can negotiate the days off during the "offer" session. I negotiated 4 weeks to start at the current company... Vacation is important!

Had some sushi tonight! Probably won't see sushi for a month on the trip..... Mike & I think alike on most things, especially on the trips we take.... but..... food & drink. I'll try every beer that's available on the road... I've had some pretty good ones & a few I'd rather not taste again. Mike sticks to the tried & true. Same with food, I'll eat most anything... Mike's not big on seafood.....
Also had some really good sake. I believe it's called Oto Kuyama. It's served in a container that's iced, and is really, really good.... I just wish sushi & sake weren't quite so expensive.

I set up a Flickr account this weekend... not sure if I like it.. I had a Fotki account for years, and thought Flickr might be better... not sure yet, so far I like Fotki better.
