I don’t want to build websites anymore.
For my next trick, I will get caught up on all my projects in the next four days. Impossible? Yeah, probably – but I’m going to try it anyway. Bring on another Finishing Season marathon!
This is the first entry I’ve tried to post typed on my Treo, so forgive the stilted nature of the writing. I wound up taking most of the day off and walking around Evanston, finally winding up here on the beach, staring out at the lake. I’m thinking a lot today about people, and school […]
And hot on the heels of that last post comes another, which reveals precisely why the old to-do list is constantly three steps ahead of me. Last night I had a meeting in Schaumburg (a suburb of Chicago out by O’Hare) at the recording studios of Thadeus Project, an art rock band for whom I […]
I am having one of those days where it feels like no matter how close I get to actually pulling ahead of my workload, it keeps pulling away from me at the last minute and cackling its fool head off.

It’s 4:30 A.M. on a Tuesday It doesn’t get much worse than this In beds in little rooms in buildings in the middle of these lives which are completely meaningless Help me stay awake, I’m falling… – Counting Crows, “Perfect Blue Buildings” 4:30 AM on a Thursday, actually, but close enough. Late night marathon email […]
The good Scott Thigpen provides yet another interesting life insight: Nineteen Basic Human Requirements. These are as follows: Connect emotionally Be vulnerable and share feelings Have an appropriate sense of power and assertiveness Say “NO” Have initiative and drive Have at least a minimal amount of organization Be real, but not perfect Accept imperfections and […]
I just realized that I neglected to link to where the aforementioned charts came from – they are implementations of the XML/SWF Charts widget from maani.us. Truly excellent widgets, as widgets go.
