Update
I’m still here, sort of.
Been busy with work and well, work. We’re supposed to be releasing so my days are filled with meetings, builds and escalating bug counts. (If none of this makes sense to you then you’re lucky don’t worry. It probably means you HAVE a life.) Also about 60% of my usual interweb haunts are blocked so I have to be very choosy about where I login, otherwise I get flashing screens and sirens and messages that ‘THIS SITE CONTAINS ADULT CONTENT’ or ‘HERE THERE BE DRAGONS’ or ‘WE KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE BITCH’ all signed with Love from the IT dept.
Anyway in addition to working weekends and pretty much all the hours God is sending I’ve also:
- Tried to get broadband at home. (Fingers crossed eircom will sort me out. NTL don’t cover our area, bastards.)
- Signed up for NanoWrimo again this year. Considering I haven’t been able to do anything for the last two weeks with Flickr Fiction there’s likelihood I won’t finish this year. (Why do I do this to myself? Not only have I signed up but I volunteered to be the Co - ML for Dublin again. Simply for the natty luminous yellow T-shirt I hear some of you say.)
- Due to new work stuff I currently have at least 3 invitations to Christmas parties that I can think of off the top of my head. This does not include assorted birthdays, going away do’s and random pintage \ movies.
Hmm, it doesn’t seem that much written down, but the work thing seems to be sucking the life force out of the other stuff, so lately I feel like I’m not getting much done.

drop us a line and tell us about the new job. if you do I will send you a pic of baby kate.
