Greetings and salutations.
Greetings long lost friends. How have you been?
The arc browser is still delighting me since I made it the defaut. So much less clutter. Less stress. Spaces organize the tabs. Love it!

I’ll let you in on a secret: I love sporadically updated weblogs. I subscribe to over 1200 feeds and most of them are sporadic or even technically “inactive”. Months often pass between updates

It means that every post published was important to the writer

Back in the days of snail mail, letters that began with “It’s been a while since I last wrote to you” were the ones people cherished the most

You don’t need to post every day or even every week to have a blog that matters

Tell me about the time you switched from being a manager or exec back to an IC and how great that felt and why!!
It’s awesome to be summoned back into interaction design type work that I did in the late 90s and tomorrow I get to embody being the IC that I am deep inside! The career pendulum is real especially if you go with the flow. I’m so happy. Today my friend called it a full circle moment. This was not planned. Maybe the best things are emergent.
This is my favorite place in earth- More Mesa in Santa Barbara, CA. It was my goal to visit here monthly. With this client I am near this place twice per week. It feels goofy to say I manifested this but at the same time, I did write this dream down in January.
I find myself doing interaction design work at a startup located in the same building where I did that kind of work in 1999 and I’m beyond happy.
Don't mind me I'm just rewriting something 20 different ways in order to move forward.
The Arc browser has remedied my "million tabs" problem. So glad I made the switch. I'm so much more organized.
