Since we currently have somewhere in the area of a foot and a half of snow on the ground, I’m feeling very glad to have the President’s Day holiday off work. We don’t have to go anywhere today, and it looks like the most logical thing to do in this weather is exactly that, go nowhere!
Hope you’re enjoying your Monday, wherever you are.:)
Pin Over on my other site this morning, I wrote something about a quote I heard on Seth Godin’s podcast. It had to do with how the internet has made us all distributors now, and how, with previous distribution, there has always been a responsibility to maintain some “standards.” Whether it was a TV network, a…
Pin The words reminded me so much of a time in my life when I could have died and thought none of this was worth it. It also reminded me of why I didn’t – my curiosity.

Pin We could also talk about abuse here too, and all the ways our stories all invalidated. How many of these have you heard from folks who find out about the abuse you dealt with as a child, or even as an adult:
“You were young, you’ll get over it” (Or you don’t remember it that well)
“Are you sure it was abuse?”
“I can’t imagine (abuser) doing that”
“Why didn’t you just leave?”
“How could you have let that happen?”
This past weekend I had to take my car to the shop. It had suddenly started making a funny noise, and so I took it in to have it looked at, and to just get it tuned up and make sure everything was working properly. The noise turned out to be some loose metal in…
Hi there, remember me? 🙂 OK so it hasn’t been that long since I posted anything over here, but I can’t help but feel a little like I’ve been neglecting things over here. It’s true, I’ve been working head-down in technology for a while now, and really haven’t had time to put together too many…
