Vibes coming in through "Speedy Delivery". Mr. McFeely doubts you will even need them, though.

It went VERY well. They actually called me before the position officially opened. They are now checking to see if they have to post it all or just offer it. I expect HR will make them post it but it looks very very good.

I am plotting a tailgate for this year. The 'when' is not filled in yet. My fulltime work at home status makes travel a little easier. It doesn' t matter where I work, as long as there is a broadband connection.

Don't let me miss you at that tailgate, Windsor. I'll be the short, pudgy grandmother with white hair -- but I'm real cute.

I'll be the grandson stopping by at some point. My cuteness is debatable in relation to my dear grandmother's.
