:: life :: Light at the end?
So, been at the new job now for nearly a month. Enjoying it. The atmosphere is much more relaxed (or is it just a lack of a sense of impending doom?), and the project has allowed me time to explore creatively. Body is getting used to the new schedule, but weekends are a definite precious commodity now. It's the drive that is the biggest pitfall at ( Read more... ) -
:: life :: Long time no post
Well, it's been a long time since I last posted. Six months of unemployment did a bit of a number on me. Usually, when work goes, I can get temporary office work. Not this time. Felt very isolated and worthless and did withdraw myself from a number of contacts and forums, due to not wanting to make a deal of it (or be reminded of the situation ( Read more... ) -

Bit difficult to type as there is a kitty between me and the laptop, happily chewing on the drawstrings of my hood ( Read more... ) -
:: life :: Continue & Reset
Well, it was quite a while since the last update, and what looked like a good solid year nosedived. Due to publisher shenanigans, every time we lined up a new project to get money coming into the business, a publisher would come along a rip the rug from beneath our feet.

:: life :: Best Laid Plan
All screwed due to a momentary lapse of concentration. Now the present I ordered for Sarah is currently being delivered to my old flat. Well, attempted to be delivered. As soon as I found out, I jumped into the car to head over to old flat to inform the current tenants. No one home, so I'll have to swing by again after work to see if there is a ( Read more... ) -
:: life :: Randomness Awesomeness
Still pretty knakered, but muddling through. Spent the weekend in London for the MCM Expo. The convention has a major anime focus, which leads to much bewilderment from those of us of an older persuasion. Especially the free hugs thing. All well and good someone coming up to you and askign if they could have a hug, but I find something creepy about ( Read more... ) -

First, this little video I spotted on warren_ellis's blog
Second, we have this piece about some novel advertising going up on London buses.

:: life :: Missing the Analogue
All in all, it's been a quiet week. The new car is running well, but it is taking some getting used to. After two years of the hulking, no power-stearing of the Skoda, I'm feeling a little disconnected to the Liana. The lightness of the stearing, the digital readout on the dash, the quietness in the cabin have lead my morning commutes to take on an ( Read more... )
