I finally found some nail clippers.  I’ve been looking for some nail clippers since arriving in Seattle, since they’re one of those things that you almost always forget to pack, despite the fact that you almost always wind up needing them.  I found some though, and I trimmed my fingernails.  It is a wonderful feeling.

My first four days at work have been crazy and hectic, but I think I’m starting to get the hang of things.  My team seems pretty awesome, and I’ve started making real progress on the warm-up tasks they’ve given me.  My opinion of Seattle right now compares a little less than favorably to Boston.  The public transit system here consists of a baffling array of buses, which makes the city feel larger than it should.  The people here are quite nice though, and I hear it’s a West Coast thing.  The coffee is definitely delicious, that’s for sure.

I’ve found that I have a habit of always ending my paragraphs with a short statement.  Weird.
