For Yours truly, September starts in early July

After a grand total of three weeks’ holiday – mostly spent at home, though relaxing and in great company – am now back at work on two new translations. Couple of very funny books, to boot. I love working when everybody else is on holiday, so then I can take two weeks off in November and tell them all to bugger off.

Meanwhile, it would appear FriendFeed is my new drug of choice. Love the lightheartedness of most conversations, feels a bit like a *very large* IRC chatroom. Great way to meet new people and discover new blogs and tumblelogs. Plus, unlike Twitter, I think I can find a way of posting in more than one language on FF without going mad. I was thinking of subscribing to some French and German people, so even if I don’t write back I still get some language practice.

Oh, and I’m writing this on my new EeePc900. Best buy in 2008 so far.

Starting Afresh

There. I’ve imported my old Blogger blog into a shiny new WordPress.com account. I’ll try my best to start blogging in English again. Not promising anything though.

Still here

I apologise profusely. It’s been a few hectic weeks, I’ve been working like mad (from home, thank God, and here’s another one of my 43 things ticked off), I’ve set up a new website, and generally done things, been places. Well, done things, mainly — been nowhere interesting.

Frustrated as I am at having nothing of consequence to write, I reckon I’ll just shut up now. Thanks for reading.

Off your backside!

I am endlessly astounded at how, the more you do, the more you want to do. I have now between seven and nine projects running, between work and play (the exact number depends on whether a ten-line description/declaration of intent in my personal organizer actually qualifies as a “project”). And I’ve been working like a whirlwind for the past few days.

Work is going fine, play is going even better. Really, I can’t complain. I just need to persuade myself that I simply do not have the time to add to my to-do list. Pity, as I’ve just thought of a wonderful idea for yet another website…
