A new baby and a new job

Don't be alarmed - the baby's not ours! Friends of ours, Eric and Shannon, welcomed little Chase Maximilian into the world at 11:47pm Thursday night. We haven't seen them yet, but Eric informed us that both mom and baby are doing great. We're so excited for them, and hopefully we'll get to meet the little guy on the weekend. CONGRATULATIONS RESIENFELDS!! Yay!

On a completely different note, one of the interviews I went on last week apparently went really well, and I've been offered a fantastic job!! On March 12th I start with Technology Advancement Group, or TAG, as a Contracts Administrative Assistant. The company is really cool - they make hardware (computers etc) and provide support to the military and government. I believe they have about 1000 employees spread across their 3 locations, but the one I'll be working at is the headquarters. My position entails mostly administrative support, but it will be a fantastic opportunity for me to learn the ins-and-outs of the government contracting world (which is a hugely lucrative business around the DC area), and it's a great foot in the door. Hopefully, if I enjoy working with the company, there'll be lots of room for me to advance and be promoted to different positions. I'm a little scared to start a new job, but I'm so excited! Go me!!
