Summer

Hola!

It's been a while, I'm short on time and misery, so both my writing and musicianship is suffering terribly.

News: The project I was hired for, almost 3 years ago now (where did that time go?), finally died after 6 months on life support. It's been fun, it got me to the US on the company dime, and even got a bit of exposure, but now it's over.

Now, at least for this month, I'm a web-developer, fixing up some pretty shoddy PHP a sub-contractor knocked up that has to go live at the end of the month. This would be easier if I'd had any PHP experience to speak of, but learning is fun. [If the previous sentence was too nerdy skip to the next paragraph now] Plus, since the whole setup is LAMP, I get to develop on a linux box, running my favourite disto (Fedora), and I got root, baby - aww yeah. [No sympathy, you were warned]

We moved again - this was my fifth move in 3 years, I think I'll try to stay put a bit longer. We're now in the south west of the city, right beside where I work, in a modern 2 room apartment with a balcony and... a sauna! Well, a tiny hotpress in the bathroom with some electrically heated rocks, but it does the job. We're sofa shopping at the minute, which is tricky business.
