Well there it is. I just awoke and I’m pondering what to squeeze into the afternoon while I still have it. So much happens in a year…. or less. Met M less than a year ago. Chef was released less than a year ago. The Webtrends acquisition was less than six months ago. Speaking of which, last night heralded the move of my production systems from our original startup-crafty in-office Seattle datacenter to a brand spanking new DC in Las Vegas. This is a big deal, and more exciting things to come in the next couple of months. Sometimes I think the key to success is finding the opportunity for lots of growth, which is significant to my life right now in a number of ways. So many other people, different levels of relationships come and gone.<\/p>\n
I still have a cold, the throat is slightly better. I don’t officially have work again until Monday although surely I’ll be doing some and my ARC rotation starts at 8am tomorrow because of the holiday.<\/p>\n
I was lying in bed this morning thinking about the effort I put into communicating what I want to people, and that on the whole I feel like I get less than that level of effort in return from most. I wonder if that puts [unfair] pressure on others? Was discussing “I’m not hitting on you” with Tori the other day, and we considered the “no means yes” stereotypes in the way that “whatever happens, it is your<\/em>fault, this is what you<\/em> wanted.” In that whoever makes the final move, regardless of how others felt all along, may feel like they’re holding the responsibility. Which is sorta chuckle-worthy, since I’m never<\/em> unwilling to share responsibility. Somehow being part of the solution [and not part of the problem] is ingrained in me. In the, “okay, fine, fault, fine, whatever, what now?” way.<\/p>\n I need cough syrup, coffee and chow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well there it is.
