Pivoting

I'm increasingly convinced I won't last much longer in big tech. I've only ever been a web designer, I like it and can't seriously think of anything else I would do (although product design is tempting). I don't have a great big plan but lots of transferable skills and experiences. Freelancing is still fun but less and less realistic with 2 kids. I'm open and will allow myself to get energized by new connections.

Self therapy

Posting random stories on my blog has been fun and revealing. The comedic relief is worth the time but the content looks a bit dubious. Some positive connections and feeback came out of it. It seems to be one of these things I instantly feel silly for but it will likely be an acceptable memory in the long run. I'm in a weird chapter of life (not just a moment). Trying to embrace the curriculum of life, being a silly tech dad

Co-sleeping

I'm 1+ year into this wild journey. Some good, some bad. That's the kind of experience that makes me feel emotionally older. It stings harder. I have more range and resilience. I'll likely stick with it as long as I can or he wants it. I'm in bed at 8:30, some days I hate it, most days I'm indifferent. He almost broke my nose once. It has to go somewhere.

Stuff

I'm building someting for all my stuff. It's happening at /stuff and on github. The idea is to create a great big folder for all my stuff to unplug from tumbr, arena, pinterest, maybe even dribbble.
