My youngest brother, Andrew, is participating in a walk this weekend for suicide prevention, a cause that is near and dear to him after a close friend who killed himself after suffering from bipolar disorder two and a half years ago.

Since October 2009, when I last posted, a lot has changed. Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer have come and gone, and now I'm setting in a new desk and a new architectural firm. Luckily this firm doesn't block websites - yay! So accessing Live Journal, Facebook, Gmail and all the other fun sites is easier. I just have to make sure I get my work ( Read more... ) -

I finally took the plunge last weekend and created a Facebook page. I had a been semi-resisting it for a while but deep down I knew I would likely create it. I've been doing less and less Live Journal posting for a number of reasons and Facebook just seemed like a better fit. I'll still keep my LJ account. I'm not done journalling by any means ( Read more... ) -

It's been a while since I last posted. A lot has been happening, mostly work unfortunately. Thankfully though things finally came to a head and my calls for help were heeded and unfortunately mistakes were made. Long story there but let's just say that there was plenty of blame to spread around up and down the corporate ladder but I am the only ( Read more... ) -
