I am still dating Ian. I don't want to jinx anything, so that's all I have to say about that.
Work is going great as well. For awhile it's just been 2 of us in my department- the other being my manager. Needless to say I've had to take on alot of additional responsibility. My efforts have not gone unnoticed. I recently had my year review and was asked to take on even more responsibility training the 2 additions we have to my department. I also recieved a 9% raise, which is pretty awesome. As with any review, they also mentioned what areas I needed to work on. My favorite suggestion was that I "think before I speak." Hilarious.
I've done alot of great things with my friends so far this year as well. Here are a few highlights:


New Years Eve 2008


A couple friends of mine have decided to have a baby so we threw them a "Turkey Baster" baby. If you think about it, you'll get the joke.
These are the "Maybe Baby?" pictures:


And then there was the trip to the River House in Mexico:


And Finally, Slot Canyon in the Anza Borrego Dessert:
