Hey all...

As some of you know, I was in Denver about a month ago for interviews. One of them finally came through. I was offered a job today.

I am crapping my pants!

I am planning on handing in a 2-week notice at work Monday morning, and leaving the Saturday morning after my last day of work.

I am TOTALLY excited, and also TOTALLY scared crapless!!!!!!

HELP!!!!! lol!

I've had to pick up and move to a new state for a job before - it can be quite an exciting time. Best of luck in your new digs!

Thanks! I've been there a few times and it's amazing how a simple flight of stairs can actually make you gasp a little (I'm pretty much at sea level where I am now).

There's not that many fat people in Denver. I suggest using your two weeks for a tummy tuck and liposuction. It will help you fit in and will help you cope with the altitude.

BTW, congrats on the new job. You'll do just fine there. Everyone is from somewhere else, and the Rocky Mountains are just breath-taking. As well as checking out the city, be sure to visit Estes Park (Rocky Mountain National Park). Regular visits to the mountains remind you of what's great about living there.

I'd suggest a D-Will jersey. Booz might be gone before the trade deadline. Lots of rumors here.

If you're thinking of hitting SLC to watch a game this season, shoot me a PM.
