I guess it’s about time I post again. Life has been keeping me busy. Today was the first day of work in over a month that I didn’t have to spend in front of a computer monitor for eight hours, so I decided now was a good time to update.
Instead, I had the first day of a three day training seminar for the project I am working on. It was a whirlwind of accrual and cash based accounting, appropriations and apportionments, credits and debits, internal and external offsets, JFMIP certification (we’re one of only six out there), and many other fun federal financial topics. I learned a lot about how the various government departments and agencies allocate their funds, and the ways our software makes their lives easier.
This past weekend was Artsfest at Penn State, and I already miss the place. It felt really weird driving back into town being an alumni now, but at the same time it felt just like home. I had a great time seeing most of my old friends, going out, walking around the town to see all the booths. As my old roommate Dave said while we were all walking around artsfest:
“I’m an artist, I just haven’t found my medium yet.”
Aren’t we all?
