I will miss everyone that I've known for years and have gotten to know over the years. I've been a part of the Subaru community for 14 or so years and this is going to be quite the change and challenge, but I'm ready for it.

The good news is I'll be visiting the Bay a few times a year so I'll get to see a few of you as time permits.

Really, I just want to say thank you to those of you that made my time here worth all the trials and tribulations. I'd never have made it through this journey without you.

There are a million things I want to say, but I'll leave it for now.

Sincerely,
Teh Unit
a.k.a. Ryan
I remember when you had a mazda haha

Is it weird that I can forsee some of us showing up to an upcoming BAM or something and some guy rolling up in a pimped out MazdaSpeed and finding out it's Ryan behind the wheel? Just saying, I can possibly see him getting his hands on a "demo" to use.

That still makes no sense, Glen. Whatever makes you happy I suppose.

The move is mostly over. I don't have a place yet, staying with my madre until I find something. Don't start at the new office until Monday. Made sure that I got a few weeks off in between. I'll admit I'm super antsy to get back to work.

I'm actually picking up a 2 if I get my choice. I already have the truck and it's a bit pricey on gas so I'll grab something super eco for now. I'm pretty sure I have my choice, though.
