Took the LX0-101 from Comptia on Friday and scored a 660. Which isn't too bad but I would have preferred a much higher score than that but I felt like a few new things were thrown at me that I hadn't studied for.
Started studying for the LX0-102 this week and so far its going good. First pre-assessment score was 73%, and this afternoon I scored a 80%. 7% improvement over 1 day isn't too bad in my opinion. Need to get that to 90% before I am allowed to take the test.
Went to the VA to have the surgeon look at my umbilical hernia and my surgery is scheduled for November 1st. So that will be a fun week of pain + going to work. I am taking one extra work day off to make sure that I give myself plenty of time to deal with the pain.

Work work
I started a new position this week. A company was looking to fill some temp part time positions so I thought it wouldn't be that bad to get myself out for a while each day and do some work. Really nice to be able to buy Christmas gifts this year for my boys.
So far, I like it, its taking some getting use to, but I think I can handle it. A little stressed because they expect you to act like you have been working there for years as you deal with the customers, thought they understand you just started. They want to create that illusion with the customer.
I like my co-workers who are starting out with me, though one made a bone-head move and told them he needed to take a day off so he could do an interview with Apple. Yeah, he didn't last long as we are a right-to-work state. I did the same stupid mistake years ago and I learned from it. Hopefully he landed that job with Apple.
Studying is going good. Improved my overall testing score by 11% but still not good enough to request taking the DRV1 LX0-101 test, the first Linux+ test.
Oh, and apparently I have a new nickname, 'Sprinkles'. I was out of the room, came back and they told me that was my name.
