What a way to start a week!

So many things have happened recently that I’m having trouble listing them all! Okay, here goes:

1) C is leaving Simpli (on good terms) to take another job. (We’ll announce this to Simpli customers soon.)
2) That job is in Santa Clara, so he’s moving out here in two weeks! Whoa! (Unexpected!)
3) So now Simpli is hiring. We’ll probably hire an intern here in San Jose to start… that will keep costs down and allow us to pay down some of the debt the company has (there’s not much debt to pay down, especially for a company Simpli’s size, but it’d be nice to have it paid off.) I’ll post a resume on craigslist here in a bit.
4) DW invited me to go to Tunisia with him in November to attend the World Summit on the Information Society. I decided to go!
5) And it looks like we might be going to Rome for a few days as part of that trip as well! YAY! So I’m looking for a travel agent to plan the whole thing. Anyone know one here in the Bay Area?
6) Another ex-bf has fallen in love with an older woman and he’s totally happy. Congratulations! You totally deserve to be happy! He’s gushing about her on IM to me right now. It’s really cute!
7) One of my friends, O, is driving his Miata out here from NYC and should be here in a couple weeks. It is weird to have the exact same car (model year, trim, colors, options, everything) as one of your best friends. I saw him in Indianapolis last weekend and had a great time.
8) I also met Jeff from Innovative Network Concepts while I was in Indiana, along with his co-worker/younger brother Cody. Jeff’s a router guru I’ve commissioned to help Simpli with our network. Jeff will become an integral part of our team in the next few months.
9) And I am leasing $20,000 worth of Cisco equipment to do our network right (with full redundancy) this time!

It’s only going to get crazier from here. The next few months (especially July) are going to be so busy! Lots of changes coming up; most of them at Simpli.

Stay tuned… the wild ride has just begun!
