America is shutting down. Everyone is retreating to their homes. Large gatherings are all cancelled. Workplaces are shuttering. The only busy places that remain are the grocery stores...which aren’t really that bad, all things considered. Here’s why: the trains are...

It was my last day for a while in the Netflix offices today, and it just so happens to have coincided with the first confirmed Coronavirus case for an employee’s spouse who works in the other building on campus, the big building. So . . . It’s all in lockdown over...

The three month struggle to get our new bed is finally over. I’m lying in it right now. West Elm has really cool stuff. Love it. But if it’s not something they say they can ship immediately, be prepared to wait for it way, waaaaay longer than they say it will take....

Looks like I’ll be starting a new job on Monday. Except it’s also my old job. The group of people I work with are being outsourced to a new company, and that includes me. I’ve always been a contractor anyway, so this really isn’t all that unexpected. But it is a...

I got some clarity today on the job front. Praise be. I was made an offer by a new company, and I’m deciding whether or not to accept it. I think I will. It’s a decent offer. And I’d get to continue doing the work I’m doing right now, which I know is valuable to my...

It’s late so I have to make this a quick one. I had a good day today. I decided on what to do next with the shift in work, and in much less time than I thought I would. I usually don’t need pokes and prods in order to jump at an opportunity either, but this time, it...

Change is always scary. At first. And sometimes second. But change has always been good to me. I don’t know how I forget that, but I do. And it’s true, it’s always been good. Without fail. Even deciding to write full-time in 2017 that failed in every respect save that...
