It's All Happening

If you weren't aware, I have been looking for a new job for a little over a year, ever since I finished my Master's degree. The search has been exhaustive. I've applied to job postings both internal and external to my current company. A couple of times I thought I was getting close to a change, but it wasn't until last week that something finally came through. And not just something, it's what I feel is the right something. In just under six weeks, I will be relocating my family to the Pacific Northwest.

2013 seems to be the year of change. Including myself, I know ten people who have taken new jobs this year. These aren't just friends of friends, these are people I personally know and keep in touch with. In less than three months, that's pretty amazing. Things are happening, and for me, they will be happening very quickly. I probably won't have time to update this mailing list as often as things happen, so I've prepared a few additional resources to keep you informed.

First, you can read my official announcement about the new opportunity here. It's in three parts because this change is one that actually began way back in 1994, so you get the back story at no extra charge. 

Second, I have created a Frequently Asked Questions page on the web site. I will update this as information changes or becomes available to me.

Lastly, there is the TRS Facebook Page, my Twitter account, and the TRS Google+ Page. In addition to frequent updates and pictures, I will syndicate updates to the FAQ on those two channels.

Happy Birthday To Me

As many of you know, I enjoy birthdays; I have been known to celebrate mine all month. This year, I'm kicking the celebration up a notch and getting you all a little something: a free Kindle edition of Not Quite There. Simply "purchase" Not Quite There on February 15th and take advantage of a one day promotional price for the book: $0. 

Happy Birthday (to me).

Use It.

News Release: Alyssa Achieves Lavatorial Milestone

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Sean Genovese, President

At approximately 7:00 p.m. this evening, Alyssa Anne Genovese successfully deposited feces in a white porcelain toilet. The achievement comes after weeks of failed attempts and several hundred dollars in corporate expenditures for disposable "Pull-Up" diapers. Alyssa's parents are very proud, but her sister, Kaitlyn, is beside herself with excitement as the achievement comes with a reward: the movie Barbie: A Fairy Secret.

The event unfolded this evening after both Kaitlyn and Alyssa were sent upstairs to prepare for showers. Alyssa informed the household she had to go potty and was immediately instructed by Daddy to proceed. Daddy, himself having to pee, adjourned to a separate bathroom. Minutes later, Alyssa was running about the second floor of the corporate headquarters asking for toilet paper. As Daddy responded to the request, Alyssa informed him, "and I pooped." Visual evaluation confirmed that indeed a "brownish turd" of approximately one inch by one and a half inches was present in the receptacle.

Once visual confirmation was made, Daddy made an audible announcement to which Kaitlyn immediately responded. A celebration ensued which included the "Poo-Poo Dance" performed Gangnam Style. Following the dance, jammies were installed on all minors and a celebration was held in the company's media room, where attendees enjoyed a screening of the newly acquired Barbie movie with popcorn and hot chocolate. 

This development is expected to improve year-end corporate margins as the need for "Pull-Ups" declines. Recent costs associated with bringing new products to market has contributed to lower earnings on sales of the company's most recent product offering, Not Quite There.

You Heard It Here First!

You Heard It Here First!

I have some great news! Your peer pressure, bullying, and begging has worked. I have officially begun writing Speed Bump Chronicles. The timetable is early 2014, but my publisher is kind of a hard-ass, so it's possible it could be available in time to stuff in next year's stockings. This year please consider giving the gift of laughter, adventure, and step by step instructions on how to get the New Jersey State Police to write you a speeding ticket.
