Creativity, curiosity, and code
It’s been a LONG week. The days have been passing very slowly and I’m a bit confused as to which of these events, thoughts and discoveries are from this week and which are older, but hey. I’ve been back in the saddle with my journey’s to work and back, and this has raised a few […]
“It’s dark, it’s cold, my skin is wet from walking through dense fog, and I want to know the way home. Keeping my hands in my pockets, I shiver and shuffle around in my coat and draw it closer. I’m lost, in a place I don’t know very well. I don’t recognise anything. Signposts tell […]
SO the baby blackbirds have flown the nest, though it looks like a new brood may be on the way sometime…so my interest has turned to these little fella’s that I found outside our house yesterday morning. Looks like some spider’s eggs hatched and there was just a writhing tangle of little legs. Seems that […]
Another Sunday evening Brain dump then. Things to write about: Sunday evening’s talk at church More on social networking Thoughts on Work Storytelling! Sunday Evening’s Talk at Church Before I write this, a vague note about how I intend writing about my faith here. I do have an assumption that no one else is reading […]
Wow – a week since my last post – you can tell I’m back at work. Things I’ve discovered: Tetrapak’s can be recycled…HOORAY!!! Facebook is a grown-up version of MySpace and, despite my initial scepticism, is quite cool – it even imports Blog posts from Blogger. I’m finding my work quite a struggle at the […]
A few things… Sally’s back after a weekend away – yay! I’m back at work tomorrow – have to see how things go. Rode 14.8 KM (9.2 miles) in the gym yesterday – does that count?
Had a very good Christian Aid Week service at church this morning. Lots of good use of CA’s resources and an interesting sermon based on Luke 7:36-50 – the story of a woman, probably a prostitute, worshipping Jesus by pouring expensive perfume over his feet. The key thing I took away was the need for […]
Techie note really. I’ve had a couple of video editing projects on hold, waiting for a tool that will convert the 3gp files I get from my mobile phone into a format that I can edit. I don’t want to have to pay anything to do this, so the projects have been set aside waiting […]
Is it strange coincidence? Or are Google having a laugh? They launch Google Maps for Mobile in the UK on the day that Tony Blair announces that he will resign. The mocked up “screen shot” on Google’s homepage shows “Downing Street – Press 1 for options”. Ho ho…
Bother my brain… After several very good days of feeling pretty normal I had a very frustrating day on Monday (it involved 2 printers, one powerpoint document, and lots of paper and ink). I suspect that this was just a normal frustrating day but I started to get all knotted up inside again and lost […]
