I will no longer be updating Iron Guide (see below). Instead, I am now writing at my new, personal blog. Though that will be about some of the newer things I'm doing in life, if you want to see updates about Louie, Lester, and now Dusky, add me on Facebook -- there's enough ridiculously cute pictures to go around.

Finishing up the series on catching up. I think I'm finally caught up. Phew.

As some of you know, I'm leaving Amazon. Friday was my last day. I'll be venturing out on my own, starting my own company and pursuing a couple projects I'm very excited about. I obviously shouldn't talk about it too much, but hopefully there'll be something to see soon enough.

What does all this mean for Lester?

Hopefully not very much.

There's a chance I'll have to move to be (geographically) closer to investors. As long as I stay on the West Coast, where Guide Dogs for the Blind has a presence, this shouldn't be a very big deal.

Lester obviously won't be going to the office anymore. I won't be either, for that matter. :) Why? Well, we won't really have an office... at least for now. So, instead of sitting (and sleeping) obediently by my feet all day, Lester will be able to play at home, romp around with his toys, and, well... still sleep, but maybe just a bit more comfortably.

On the flip side, it also means he won't get the exposure to all the dogs, people, and random crazy things that happen at work. But, I figure, with the accident and my re-discovered love of public transit, Lester will still see all sorts of new people and random crazy things... shoot, now, he'll probably just be meeting random crazy people instead.

But, unfortunately for Lester, here is one little lady he won't be seeing much of anymore: Sadie, one of the coolest dogs at Amazon. Not that Sadie will mind. Lester totally, totally has a crush on her... but, you know, Sadie's just a little too hip for his hyper little puppy antics. Sorry pal, but I just don't think it's gonna work out.



Quincy took an awesome picture of Lester stealing a kiss from Sadie [just a few seconds after this one], but I accidentally deleted it, thinking I'd already saved it elsewhere. :( Somehow this one survived. Sorry folks.

All in all, exciting times for both Lester and I ahead.

Despite her sometimes aloof demeanor Sadie really loved Lester. She misses him already.

I hope the new job is going well and I'm looking forward to hearing about the great things you create!

Hi, Added a new value add to my blog this weekend - a news widget from www.widgetmate.com. I always wanted to show latest news for my keywords in my sidebar. It was very easy with this widget. Just a small copy paste and it was done. Great indeed.
