I received a call from Visual Graphics and went to pick up my iBook with a replacement drive the day before my warranty expires. Of course, like the car that won’t clunk for the mechanic, she wouldn’t give in to their poking and prodding and they determined that the drive was fine. The night before …

colaspot.com Launches
Now I can finally talk about it! In addition to the other stuff I’ve been working on lately, I have been collaborating with Matthew and Jonathan on a new local media project, colaspot, that focuses on culture and the like in Columbia, SC. If you’re local to Columbia, or are just interested our brilliantly creative …
Delays…
Yeah, so I promised a big announcement and can’t deliver today. Sorry. We’ll do it Monday instead. Work is busy and you know how everything else is going. Stay tuned…
Thursday Bits, Stay Tuned
I feel like most of my day so far has been spent switching between one context and the next. Somehow the iBook has come back to life. If you’re wondering why this is a bad thing, I’m about 100.1% confident that this hard drive is on its way out and I’d much rather it go …
Bryan and Murphy
Just as if I needed further convincing that I’m in the wrong place, the yesterday’s work day was beyond terror. The sick feeling I get when walking in the building was met by a few brilliantly-placed and crafted processes (read: “who came up with this idea?”), personality conflict and overall frustration. Then Murphy bears his …
Daily Progress
Yesterday I promised myself I’d squeeze in a daily activity into my schedule. I didn’t really commit to anything because I’m already reasonably overextended, but I knew it had to be something that was related to my passion. If nothing else comes of this commitment, I’ll have earned the fruits of practice. Zack pointed out …
“Everyday I Write the Book”
Reader’s Digest has a feature, Only In America, which highlights “Ideas, trends and interesting bits from all over” – all over America, I presume. October’s edition of this feature included two very interesting storiettes. The first of these mentioned David Allen and GTD, clutter busting, and feng shui. The fruit of the meme, however, was …
Bye-Bye Bloglines
Ok, it seems odd that only about 2 weeks ago I committed to using Bloglines to aggregate my feeds, and now I’m already moving on. Yes, Google (of course) has caught my fancy with this slick (and very Web 2.0) news reader/aggregator. Since I use my Google account for gmail, personalized search, and the ig …
Birthday and Bits
Today is my oldest daughter’s first birthday, so I’m not going to take a whole lot of time to disclose any updates because I haven’t taken any time to make any progress. Zack has once again mentioned that he’ll be working on the redesign of space-age wasteland. Even if it seems like he keeps putting …
A Productive Tuesday Afternoon
Today, I put in some massive effort towards 2 of my ‘passion intersections.’ A group of the teenagers I lead at church are volunteering to help repair the home of an elderly woman and there’s a good amount of organization and paperwork that need to be done in the next few days to make this …
