It's Official!

So, Shane officially started as a real, permanent employee at Medicis today. It only took about 8 months (which was faster than what I expected). Today he got his laptop, wireless card, a new nametag on his cube, a real employee access badge (instead of his temp one with a big "T" on it so everyone knew he was an outsider), a Medicis lunchbag, and a raise! I think he got a corporate credit card too but I'm not sure. They apparently kept him busy in all sorts of training and orientation meetings today because he was incredibly hard to get a hold of.

Anyway, they're shipping him off somewhere tomorrow to conduct a research study and then he has two more cities to visit over the next few days for more research. I know, I know, a good wife would know where he's going, but I'm writing this from my hotel room in Tucson just shortly after recovering from my Cleveland adventure. At least we're both out of town at the same time...

That's the news for now. We're hoping to go to Salt Lake for Memorial Day to see Jared, Jessie, and Vera since they've been in Bosnia for so long. We'll try and catch up with some of you Utahns while we're around.
