Week 1

So last week was my first week of work. Before it started, there was a thought in my mind that it may have been a big scam. The phone screening process was pretty simple, and there wasn't any in person interview. My worries were unfounded though, since when I arrived it was actually a pretty big software firm. There was a slight paperwork error, (they didn't do submit my information on the internal system yet) so most of my first day was just waiting. I spent a lot of the time going over angular, and getting slightly confused because none of the ClojureScript stuff I wanted to use was working. Angular is TypeScript. Anyways, once I got my security clearance process started, the rest of the week was basically filling out forms. I need to get vetted for clearance before I can get a company laptop, and then an actual security clearance before I can start looking at the code base. So... That'll probably take a while. Next steps are getting my prints, and then hopefully everything else goes smoothly.

Gyming this week was pretty good. I've been going with Hiro, and I'm feeling it. Went three times this past week, and hopefully three times in the coming week. I've been super sore/stiff, especially my back. I've also been slacking on the leg stuff, so I should probably start doing more of that again.

This weekend, Michael had his apartment warming party thing. So I went over had pizza and uh drank soju. For some reason I felt it instantly and wanted to throw up. I've definitely been able to drink a lot more without feeling it, so either I'm getting super old, or I'm getting PTSD from the last time I drank.

This week work will probably be more of the same. I'm going to look over my paperwork one more time, and then probably go to get my prints done. That requires metroing/driving all the way to Virginia though, which will be sad for me.
