Intuition & Elbow Grease

... Going back to good old-fashioned, hand-crafted artisan webpages.

Simple HTML and a bit of CSS.

No need for any fancy frameworks here. (for now)

Hmmm.... well what do we have here? another journal? Oh boy. Well, after following the adventures of some friends of mine, I thought I might as well give this a try and see just what I would have to say on a day to day basis. So, here we are. Today I finally lost the battle of pseudo-management and have fallen victim to corporate down-sizing. Yep, that's right- no more cushy office. I've been Dilbertized into a cubicle dweller! ::shudder:: I move out of my office (it was small, dark and broom-closetish, but it was mine!) and into my new cube on friday. To the rest of the world this may seem like a minor inconvenience, but to me, having spent eight glorious corporate years in an office (complete with locking door!), the trauma of being cubicled is almost unbearable. O.K. so I'm a bit melodramatic. It really isn't a big deal. I've been very fortunate to have an office all these years since, technically I'm not a manager and only managers get offices. It was good while it lasted.

Ah yes, before I forget: 'Beware the tablespoon my son'
