We were just informed that I work at The Best Place To Work At In America!
Wow, that is quite an honor. We were 4th last year, and I thought this was insane. They gave us a nice BBQ, a bag of goodies, around $100 in gift certificates, and two extra paid days around the 4th, which will make for a five day weekend. Excellent! We are throwing an official night party sometime in July. Should be fun.
For those that don't know, and most don't, I work at Genencor Int. We are the leader in biotechnology manufacturing in the world. I am terrible at explaining what we do, because I tend to go into too much detail. Here, I'll just show you the link.

And here is the press release for the award...http://www.genencor.com/wt/gcor/pr_1119289841

Now, how should I spend my money
Well, turns out that last option for our reception is going out the window. The place isn't that great, and is waaay to expensive. $1000 deposit, and they said IF the bill is lower they will refund us. The ball room alone is $800, and they don't allow outside caterers, and I already have one lined up that is hooking me up.
I'm fresh out of ideas. Our last option seems to be a state park that has large cabins. I hope this works out, or I don't know what we will do!
I really hope we don't have to put it off to next year. Maybe we can skip the reception and jump straight to the honeymoon![]()
Wow, we picked that out in about 10 seconds. Should be a nice easy day to remember!
And Exactly one week before I turn the big two three.
The day isn't official yet. Still have to finalize it with the pastor, and find a reception hall that is open. But if all goes well, my life will change, for the better, on the first of October!
