Blur of Weeks Past, Two Trips
By Nick Hodge | March 15, 2007
The blur of the last couple of weeks has been intense. New people, new locations, new situations and thinking in a way that I frankly had left behind many years go.
Whilst these weeks have been productive from a pure output perspective, and I think that work-life is sorta in balance: there is still a hole where technology once fit.
Tomorrow I have a quick day trip to Brisbane to capture 4 stories; and then another quick trip to Adelaide to capture at least 4 stories. Sometimes its tough to get the "Microsoft connection" with these stories: especially a new one in the pipeline about online communities and social networking. There are probably some bean counters somewhere adding up the $2.50 of time it cost and $30.00 for breakfast wondering where's the business case. You know, meh.
So, like all things in life, unless I do something about filling this gap: it ain't gonna happen. Time to allocate some days to learning something new and feeling good. Some me-geek-time.

Let me know if you need someone to buy you lunch when you're in Adelaide. Maybe get Fang along as well. TK
