Radio Silence
Wow – pretty close to a month since I’ve posted last. It’s certainly not like I’m lacking things to write about. Here’s a brief recap of the past few weeks.
At home, I’ve moved, explored the new neighbourhood, planted some herbs on my new patio space, BBQ’d on the first BBQ I’ve ever owned (thanks, Jen!), and nearly ruined my wrists playing Guitar Hero: Metallica. The cat is having a lovely time running up and down the stairs (her first, I believe), it’s wonderful to have in-suite laundry again, and it’s just awesome getting out on the patio, even if it’s just to varnish a shelf. I have yet to name the bird that sings to me every morning on my walk to the bus loop, but that may get done this week.
The commute to work hasn’t been too bad – 45 minutes there, an hour back – and I’ve been playing some awesome emulated games on the way. At work, the team’s been doing really well, garnering a lot of internal and external attention with our efforts. I’ve moved to a kanban system for pull-based scheduling, which I’m hoping will streamline our work flow. This will be especially important early next month, as my team is set to grow by 66%.
Let’s see… I’m quite enjoying playing ultimate, Michael Jackson’s still dead, and I’m tired from a long day of around-the-house busywork. Hopefully I’ll get back to writing regularly sometime soon.
