it’s been pretty darn long!

It’s been a while since the last time I managed to find the time and more importantly of all the mood to write in this blog. Pretty darn long really. Life has been full of surprises, some good, others rather awful. However it’s a Sunday afternoon, I’m listening to my favorite essential mix (Blame Feb/10) LOUD, I’m having the 5th frappe of the day and feel like I’m melting, due…...

My ideal work cycle

This entry has been floating in my head for days. A little bit of a check list, a little bit a collection of things I have to do or say repeatedly over the course of my days. A few things I want to impress on self and others. I am after all a control freak. As well as being a little bit of a developer and a little bit of a designer (I want to think). I was in reality writing a note to self. But here it is on the blog as my ideal work cycle. What I preach and try to practice sort…...
