I am in Texas this weekend visiting Emma... so just a few minutes to quickly update.

I started at Rustici this week. Kind of a slow start, but I think I have a game plan for when I get back to work on Monday. Honestly feeling a little bit of pressure to perform, but that will most likely just push me to be more productive and produce better work. I am liking the job pretty well, though. Only downer is the long commute; especially with the sharply rising gas prices... Plan to start riding it this week.

When I knew I would be starting at Rustici, and knowing that Rustici is a facial-hair friendly work environment, I joined in the celebration of the beard over at whiskerino. The curator, Michael (or Mackle on the site) was gracious enough to allow me a late entry, though I had to shave clean again. Even if i hadn't joined, it is still wintertime, which calls for a beard for facial warmth for the cold months of winter riding. You can see my whiskerino profile here.

Enjoy your weekends. Cheers.
