Whoops, forgot to post this last night. The long part of the week is getting to me, but now that things are getting stable, I'll be able to plan better.
I went to work, a group of people from work decided to go to a dim sum, so we went there, and it was as good as advertised. I haven't had one of those since I was in Toronto, and here, we had a group of 8. Because it was Chinese New Year, we had 20% off, on it all as well. For those unfamiliar, a Dim Sum is a type of meal, where you order all sorts of small dishes for your table, and essentially have a small buffet within your table. It's very interesting, and very good.
On a related note, I need to remember to sign my cheques "Year of the Horse", now.
Other than that, the day was mostly uneventful. We have a bunch of documents to finish at work, and I'm probably the only person 100% assigned to that, so I'm churning through them.
After work, there was light rain, which I've heard nothing but nightmares of on the road, and it's the first time I saw rain driving. As such, freeway traffic slowed down to about 45-55 mph, and I was fine with that.
Also, back home, my family was handling the checkout of my old place, and seem to have done a very good job with that, except for my brother breaking a window. Apparently, that'll be just over $300 to fix, so I'll wrap that in with the moving expenses.
Other than that, I watched Netflix and went to bed. I have the weekend ahead of me, so I'll be catching up on things. I'll also do my annual volunteering for the robotics competition, back in Fredericton, except I'll be doing it online. Given my job is to get them a working (and awesome) scoreboard, it's something I can do abroad, but someone else will need to run it.
So, other than that, I should be meeting up with people for volleyball and/or hiking on the weekend, and I'll also want to finally watch the Puppy Bowl game on Sunday, now that I'm in the "right" country.
Should be a good time.

Adventures at the DMV, part one
I had a 10:20 appointment, so I made sure to leave plenty early, in case of traffic, parking, or GPS-related issues.
10:00am: I arrived, so plenty of time. Turns out because I have an appointment, I just need to stand in line on the red carpet (it's not that fancy), and figure it out from there. I left the appointment paper in the car, and I don't know how anal they'll be. I'll just grab that quick.
10:05am: Well, I'm at the front of the line. New license, out of country, so I give the ID, and I forgot my passport, and they won't take the I-94 without it. Well. That's probably record time for getting in and out of the DMV. I passed by the postal office to send my watch to get replaced, and headed to work. I booked an appointment for Thursday, Feb 6th, and I'll try planning better next time.
Work went well. Got much further in the training manual of the old system, and got all the errors flushed out on the development side. We've got the new system running on our development environments, so we'll be able to start coding soon.
Also, using the phone as a GPS doesn't work so good, because the GPS unit is a bit wonky, and sometimes bounces around, causing silly recalculations. I should get me a new phone, at some point.
So, I got home, and spent the evening relaxing between the hot tub, and Netflix, because clearly, I need to rest.
On a related note, back home, my family is finishing up the logistics of my move by tidying up my old place and leaving it with a nice big red bow, so that it can be given back. I am very grateful that I can count on family to help me out on this stuff, because I can't do it all on my own. So thank you very much!
And in closing, if I'm to get to work somewhere in the neighbourhood of 7 am, I should probably find the bed. Tomorrow is Thursday, and I've got about 16-17 hours left to do, unless I fill the gap with vacation hours. 10-6 should suffice.

Adventures in pretty much everything
Time can be a weird thing. The more thing that happens, the harder it is to keep track of what's going on, and interpreting time correctly. Last year, I'd have events happen earlier in the week feel like way earlier in the month. Now, I'm actually confusing events from today as being earlier this week, and it's only Tuesday.
So, let's see what I can remember of the day... the good news is that writing it down does jog the memory.
I'm back in my 7-6 days, and you'd think I'd be used to them by now, but last week, I had a bunch of appointments interrupt them, so I haven't had one in almost two weeks. As a result, I had a bit of insomnia and only really slept at midnight. But, I got up, and headed in.
My GPS is officially in the doghouse. There are basically two routes I can take. The freeways, or sneak up a mile or two, and take a straight line route on surface streets. Because of traffic, I wanted the surface streets, so I told it to use the alternate route. I live in a big apartment complex, and my parking spot is basically in the middle of the block. There are north and south exits, but my straightest route is north, while my GPS assumes I'll take the south. So, I set up in the garage, and when I go out the north route, it needs to recalculate. Doing so canceled out my previous request to use the surface streets, so it sent me on the freeways. I rolled with it.
The GPS did know about the traffic, and had me take an earlier exit, instead of going to the closest exit. However, others must have had the same idea, because the offramp was completely congested. So, the GPS had the brilliant idea to put me back on the freeway using a road that was closed. That's when I told it to just stop.
I pulled out the phone, got a proper route using current information, made a three point turn, and got to work within 5 minutes. I mentioned it at work, and someone told me of a crowdsourced mapping app that helps with navigation. Looks pretty cool, I'll need to try it when I take new routes, like going to the DMV tomorrow morning.
I'm not sure where my team was just before lunch, so I figured they must have left already, so I went to get something to eat, when I noticed them in front of me outside. We went to one of the Asian places near work where I haven't been, and they were pretty good. So, I have the Subway, two Asian places and a Mexican place to work with.
Work was interesting too, despite the fact that I never got the meeting request, we had a developer meeting, where our dev lead decided to stop relying on the architecture team to handle training, and walked his team through the setup himself. Our team did see new faces, so my old coworker and I have been helping them as well, while getting ours set up as well. So, I was able to spend most of the day in dev, instead of just playing around in the old system. I'd like to have an idea what's next, but working from the seat of my pants works too.
On the way back, I needed to hit a Staples to get a bubble mailer, so I can send my broken watch back and get a replacement. On that road, I spotted a Peruvian seafood restaurant that I was referred to by my car guy. It was really different, but really good, and generous portions. Also, for as worldly as I pretend to be, I forgot Peru was a Spanish speaking country. I'm still trying to talk Spanish, but I keep getting talked to in English, and forget.
I also picked up the new Rocksmith yesterday, so I started working on that. I'm extremely beginner at this stage, but they got me to tune the thing, and started taking some lessons, which is nice. It'll take some time, but it's something else to work on. I took the rhythm guitar path, so I can do acoustic stuff, which is my real goal. It still sounds a bit weird, and I can't tell if it's me or the guitar. But, we'll see. Making it sound good is a skill I need.
Huh. Guess I do still have plenty to talk about. Tomorrow is the DMV appointment, so I'll start working from home, then head in after. Unfortunately, I can't do dev from there without a VPN (connection to work network), so I'll stick to self teaching.

Licence to thrill
Well, turns out I'm not quite done with logistics. My coworker was asking if I had gotten my new licence yet, and I swear, no one else seemed to think this is a thing, but if I'm a California resident, I'm supposed to get a drivers licence within 10 days. So, I'm about two weeks late on that. I knew someone was telling me about that, but couldn't remember who, or how credible they were. The car rental was fine with me for 3 weeks with a foreign licence, the car dealership was fine with it, and I'm pretty sure I asked them about it, and they said it was fine.
So, I've got an appointment with the DMV on Wednesday, and we'll see what needs to happen. As far as I can tell, I just need a lot of ID, and to pass the written and eye test, as well as a few other things. I'm going through the California driver's handbook, and that's not the funnest of reads, but hopefully common sense and my general intellect prevails. I will need to take a test behind the wheel, and that'll need to happen after I get my plates, so hopefully that happens soon.
Their manual seems to assume everyone's just turning 16, so we'll need to see how many of those actually apply. Technically, I need someone over 25 with a valid driver's licence to drive me there. You can make an interpretation that I count, or one that I don't. I'm hoping common sense prevails.
So, that'll be the next step in my adventure. Thankfully, I've got three weeks of experience to go by.
Also, Netflix didn't want to work tonight, hopefully that fixes itself. And, I'm in the long part of the week, so we'll see what happens. Wish me luck!

Downtime and meeting people
Well, the good news is, now that all the big goals are done, I'm no longer on insane hours, but it means I need to do something with the time, again.
The area I'm in is nice, and I'm within walking distance to some shopping, so I passed through there, and saw what was available to me. I did find a nice frozen yogourt place, and a smaller sports store than the big chain one I was using until now.
I have been spending some time at the pool/whirlpool, and I've started meeting more people, which is nice. I was also referred to a site for meeting people at activities, so I joined a volleyball group, and an outdoors group, so I should get more active soon. Just the timing this week was a bit iffy, since I need stuff. I did get new volleyball kneepads, and I know I have a new pair of running shoes, for when I resume my running, and/or go hiking, which I might be doing next week.
Other than that, I've also been catching up on some Netflix, and some shows I've been meaning to see. It makes good watching for relaxing.
Over the next few days, I'll also unpack more stuff, so I'll get more of my stuff going. But, the move has generated a massive amount of packing paper, so I'll need to see how recycling works here. I'm pretty sure they're big on that, though there are easy to find massive dumpsters, where it would be easy to dispose of large amounts of stuff, but I do like being at least somewhat environmentally friendly.
So, all things said, I basically went from 0 to 60 in about 3 weeks, and everything now, is way less critical.
Hopefully the tech issues at work get resolved, so I can finish developer training. That probably is the fastest way to be a major contributor at work. However, my actual team is pretty busy, so hopefully I get to talk to my team lead about short term goals, soon. I also found a new career counsellor, so once I have short term goals handled, we'll see what long term goals are. I did come here for growth, so we'll see what resources my company has.
So, I'm not entirely sure what the next step is, but I'll plant some seeds and see what comes out.
I did volunteer to take over the company softball team, and most of the office pools, and I think I also volunteered to lead our team at a 'tough mudder' style obstacle course, so I guess I might also need to train.
I also vow to finish that damned couch to 5k program!

They like it! Hey, Mikey!
With a full apartment, and the car thing settled, there were some things I needed to go shop for, so I did a Costco run, for food, and some key things I'd need for. Essentially getting things like laundry tabs, so I can do laundry, because I really need some of those.
When I got back, we had a long Skype session, so I could show home all my cool new stuff. My parents liked the new car, seem to like the complex I'm living in, and seemed to like the apartment as well. So, I got everything to my and their satisfaction, and still ran within budget. Huzzah!
Actually, there is one question mark left... I still need to finalize car insurance, and I'm still guessing at how much gas I'll need, but I got a car that's good on gas, so that should work.
With that out of the way, I had a nice afternoon ahead of me, so I spent most of it by the pool, trying to learn to handle the sun. There were other people out there, and we were able to chat a good bunch. So, getting to know people too. We also managed to get in the pool proper, instead of hanging out in the whirlpool all day. It took some getting used to, but I was able to cover some distance, and tread water. However, it's still really cold, and when I got out, I was shivering uncontrollably, so much so that I could barely use my phone to show him something. There will still be things to get used to, but I'm getting there.
With a bit more shopping, whirlpooling, and chatting, when the wind turned, I headed back upstairs, got the PS3 running, and spent the evening relaxing to Netflix. I lost a show or two I was watching, but gained a bunch more. There will be plenty of stuff for me to watch, if I feel the need to. I also got rabbit ears, which I can plug into the TV at some point.
So, we have options, and I was referred to a site made for meeting people for things, so I might be playing volleyball tomorrow (but I will need to make a Sport chalet run for new kneepads). Everything's coming up Milhouse!

The final puzzle piece?
(I forgot to post this yesterday, this is for Friday, the 24th)
So, now that I have a car, the last loose end to tie up is to properly dispose of the rental car. By this point, I was at the dealer, trying to acquire the car. This time, I let the dealer try to figure out this one, since it was nice to have others trying to solve problems for me. This one was more akin to a puzzle.
So, I have a rental car, and my new car at the dealership. I need to get the rental back to the rental place, and I need to be with my car, to drive off. Also, the fox can't be with the chicken, and the chicken can't be with the grain.
So, the plan was... after I got the new car, I'd leave the rental at the dealership (they lock the lot down), and drive home with the new car. Then, the next day, I'd drive to the dealership, they'd get my car to the Norwalk metro station, and I drive in with the rental. (They had their own car and an extra guy to get them back). So, with both cars at the metro, I'd be able to drive the rental back to LAX, then take the metro back to Norwalk (it's on the same line), and I'd hop into the new car and drive back.
So, we got to the metro station, I parked the new car, they left, and I took the rental back to LAX. I'm getting better at not taking silly routes there, but it can always use improvement. However, I took the instructions so well, I forgot to gas it up. And if it's not gassed, they do it themselves, and charge you like 9 dollars a gallon. They let me drive out, I eventually found a gas station, filled it with $20, and went back to dispose of the car.
So, part 1 complete. I asked which shuttle goes to the metro station, and they have a shuttle that goes places. They were supposed to bring me to a bus stop that goes to the metro station, but we ended up talking, and he brought me straight to the metro station, so that was nice. I got a metro card quick, and loaded it with one fare (it was like, $2.50 total), and got on. Now, on a Friday afternoon, it was pretty packed, but I got back out in one piece. The public transportation there is not the greatest, but it worked. I got back to Norwalk station, got in my new car, and went back.
However, the freeway area near there is under construction, and half the connections are shut down. The GPS is still oblivious to this, and tries to send me through most of those. There were traffic jams as well, making a pointless road even more painful. But, I did convince it of a heading, and request to avoid highways, and it gave me a reasonable route. At least until we hit 2 miles of bumper to bumper traffic because of an accident.
By then, I was pretty exhausted and frustrated, so I set my heading to a sushi place near home, because I could really use their all you can eat deal. I eventually made it, but not without picking the wrong entrance, and needing to make a long U-turn. Remember you can't always turn left, and the GPS really tries to avoid left turns, even if it would save a mile of pointless looping.
So, I eventually got in, to notice all the assigned parking was used up. I was trying to figure out a gameplan until I saw people leaving, so I staked out a position and readied to take their spot.
It wasn't the place I was aiming for, they didn't have the all you can eat, or the kimono girls, but it was that first place I found, where I had an awesome lunch, so I made the most of it. Tried all sorts of fish and seafood I didn't usually take. It was still great.
Now, thoroughly exhausted, and out of obvious things to do, I did what any reasonable person would do. I crashed at the computer and played Minecraft. Oh, and I watched some US Netflix before going to bed. Weekend!

It wasn't the place I was aiming for, they didn't have the all you can eat, or the kimono girls, but it was that first place I found, where I had an awesome lunch, so I made the most of it. Tried all sorts of fish and seafood I didn't usually take. It was still great.
Now, thoroughly exhausted, and out of obvious things to do, I did what any reasonable person would do. I crashed at the computer and played Minecraft. Oh, and I watched some US Netflix before going to bed. Weekend!
