| Got a new job today!
Today I was offered the position of corporate controller for a division of an aerospace corporation. The division is here in Phoenix, and the best part is NO MORE TRAVEL! After 4.5 years of 100% travel I'm finally going to have a life again!

Thanks everyone else for your support! First day was brutal!
