Long time no blog

It has been quite sometime since I have blogged on this thing.  It seems like a lot has changed since then.  Since I have last blogged I have a new job, interviewed for a Sales Manager position which I completely bombed and didn't get the job.  Given they haven't filled the position yet, but they also haven't pursued me either.  Kinda bummed about it, but I don't know if I would be a good fit in a sales position.  I know I could do the job, but don't know if I would excel in the position.

I have done some work on my 1970 MGB GT.  I have tore out the entire interior and have laid some thermal protection so it's not a greenhouse inside the car in the summer.  So far it has worked pretty good.  I don't get much heat up through the floor or the transmission tunnel.  So far I have only replaced the carpet in the front half of the car.  I still need to buy more carpet for the rear of the car.  I have also installed some early model Mazda Miata seats.  They are a lot more comfortable and supportive than the original seats.  I think here in the next couple of months, I am going to start prepping the car for paint.  

We have recently went to Disneyland this month.  I bought a new car so we wouldn't be crammed in the ole Saturn.  It is a 2004 Ford Escape XLT.  It did great going to Disneyland.  Disneyland was actually a lot of fun.  The first couple of days my daughter felt good, and then the next two days she had a fever and an ear infection.  Even with that, she was a trooper and still wanted to go and endured Disneyland sick.  She was such a big girl and went on Space Mountain, Matterhorn Bobsleds, and Radiator Springs Racing.  Disneyland wasn't very busy but there were a lot of rides closed so the lines were too long for my liking.
