Busy.

by Matt Gordon on July 5, 2009

Yeah, so it’s been a while since I’ve posted. I’ve been busy, but in a good way.

So what’s been keeping me out of trouble?

  • Well, work of course.  Ever since I got back from vacation in France (now two months ago, if you can believe that), I’ve been incredibly busy. Lots of good projects, and I’d like to think I’ve been really productive.
  • I’ve been taking a lot of walks through my neighborhood at night.  It’s been just beautiful outside in the evening.
  • I’ve been reading, of course. And kayaking, of course. Wild hornets couldn’t pull me away from those two activities.
  • I’m also building an e-commerce store in my spare time. I’ll provide a link from the blog when it’s ready for prime time. Should be sometime this month, if all goes well.
  • I’ve also been doing a bit of TV-watching. Eureka has turned out to be a really cool show, as well as the British comedy The IT Crowd.  Speaking of British comedy, I’d be remiss if I didn’t express my love for Little Britain.

I’m heading to Atlanta in about a month for an Internet Marketing conference. I’m sure I’ll learn a lot, and I’ll share some ideas with you after I get back.

Oh, one more thing… I took some time to contemplate applying internally for a job in southern France. There were three things that held me back:

  1. I don’t want to move to France.
  2. I’m ridiculously and undeservedly happy where I am, both in my work situation as well as my living arrangements.  Why would I change anything?
  3. I don’t want to move to France.

It’s not that I don’t like France — quite the contrary — but I just don’t want to have to deal with the hassle, expense, and other obstacles of picking up my entire life and moving there.  Not. At. All.

So that’s the view from here. What are you working on?

Ooh, we’ll totally have to talk about New Town and your thoughts on it, which I would love to hear.

Maybe some arrangement can be worked out whilst you are in France… I never thought I wanted to be stationed in Bahrain, but it turned into one of the best things ever. And Southern France? Ahhhhhhhh…

You said whilst. I like that.
