    Buddy and I are starting a bookkeeping firm as a side gig. He’s getting quickbooks certified and I’m a CPA so we’ll be able to give clients actual compilation financials at any time for banks/creditors/etc. Also will be able to do their business and personal tax returns very cheap come tax time.

    If y’all know any people that need help with bookkeeping and/or tax let me know :heythere:

    I was at Perry's last night and their private dining room was reserved for some MLS thing so maybe that was a celebration or something for getting the team

    2021 will be cool. At last we get to show our superiority to Dallas and Houston the old-fashioned way: a bunch of Euros and South Americans kicking a ball.

    I may be sleeping on somewhere here but Perry's is the only steakhouse here I'll go to for a steak. Only restaurant I've ordered a steak at in years, sans recent NYE dinner in Tahoe.

    got this place reserved for the weekend before VDay little surprise for future Mrs. Lau. https://livingwatersonlaketravis.com/the-red-room/
    Kind of inbetween glamping and a tiny home. added on package for couples yoga, massage, wine tastings at the vineyard nearby and a welcome please enjoy your sex wine bottle in the room.

    normally pretty anti-valentines day but also celebrating a big promotion for me and her :dk: cancer going into remission so making an exception this year

    and also for that reason I've acquired a 10mg Cialis for the weekend :bzzzz:

    friend of mine started working there in mid-jan and recommended me for that tax senior position. got promoted to manager 2 days before I got an email from their recruiting man sam or else I'd have definitely given them a serious look. he's still pretty new but says the place is really cool as far as people/atmosphere.

    Think they had two of the same position they were trying to fill. would have been pretty funny if two TMBers were being interviewed/hired on by the same company

    Sam is the contact that coordinated most of my search. He seems like a great guy.

    I had my final round of interviews on Wednesday which was two hours with five different team members via Zoom. One of them was Derek who was employee #1 with SF.

    I got the offer this afternoon and will decide this weekend. The company seems amazing and is exactly what I’m looking for. Just have to get my wife totally on board.

    Valentina’s is still in a trailer right? I’m guessing they never make it into a brick and mortar at this rate. They leased that spot years ago now.

    You talking the old brody location or the new one on manchaca?

    Last time I was there, they were working on the building like they were going to have some inside something or another
    Been several months since I have been there though.

    Apparently they were on guy's show last night on food network

    went to this last year and it was a ton of fun. totally free drinks all day, but it's kind of out there off 130. this year it's on a saturday instead of friday so it'll likely be more crowded, but we'll probably get there early with the free tickets

    I didn’t realize there were two south spots. I’ve just heard he’s had trouble paying rents before and I love his food so I hope he gets big enough he can handle it
