Coming up for air soon



There are many many things going on in my world at the moment. Some good, some excrementous. Among the good - I switched stations. Now I run at Sterling Fire where I'm having a great time with some good friends. We've put out fires, saved some lives, lost some and been generally busy. MUCH better than the other place I was at. The organization is super professional as well.

Meanwhile, I've landed a very short term contract (a few weeks) wherein I have to do a detailed technical architecture for all of Health and Human Services (includes NIH, CDC and many other gov't orgs) for their Identity Management solution. It's an interesting problem because a) the prime on the contract provided an architecture with no information, b) each of the organizations within HHS do their own thing, and c) the rough draft is due friday and the final submission is next week. I've been working every day solid. Last night, for example, I went to bed this morning around 6am. Got enough sleep to be vaguely coherent for my 830 conference call where I got to explain my midnight ramblings.

fun stuff. more of the same today.

more on life later.
