First talk about the fact. The end of last year, my's mileage is 10200 miles.

Yesterday is my first day of this year going back to work. It was quite strange, I kept getting the latest source code, but the testing still showed old code. And when I tried debugging, the debugging also seems pointing to incorrect line. I hope that is not jinx for the new year.

Today, I tried to tighten up the kitchen sink faucet, which has been leaking for a while. But the leak has been small. Unfortunately, I did not fix it, but made it worse. I had to call Willie to ask him to come to check it out. He could not come tonight. But he said he would come tomorrow morning. So I have to cancel my game with Eric.

I need to say something about what happened last year. I took sometime off during september to take a trip back to China for my father's birthday and also tried to help out Marty. I have promised to visit Marty in Shanghai for a long time. When I was in China, I got an email from David about GD lost FEMA contract. So after I was back from China, I started looking for another job. With the help from Min Yao, I got a contracting job working for EDS through ESNS. The work is on monderization of bond for Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE). The paid is better and the location is closer. Considering the economic, I would consider myself very lucky.
