Not Sure, eh?

dork

maybe it was a backhanded compliment

It’s Friday night, and yes, I’m sitting at my computer.  Idly setting up Feedburner and upgrading WordPress installations, scanning through Google Reader, checking the lastest from XKCD, and researching new tech while the mind ponders the next big thing.  Then suddenly my boss tells me he’s not sure how much of a dork I am.  I am struck dumb.

The term “dork” in our office is an almost loving endearment to the passionate interest in interactive technology; I used to hate it.  Now I’m scowling at the idea of not being dorky enough.  Damn.

  1. If it helps… I think you’re plenty dorky :P

    Haha, thanks. How have you been?

  3. Been pretty good. Crazy hours at work, crazy for me anyways. I’m sure you’d think they were downright relaxed ;)
    About to start some off-hours contracting, see how that goes.
    Next week taking my first vaca. in 3 years…
    Comic-con here I come! :D
    How’re things with you?

    Comic-con sounds like fun, I completely forgot that it was coming up. Yay – you definitely deserve the vacation.

    Wait, you have time to do off-hours contracting? Jealous.

    I’m good, trying to get back to a semblance of balance. Been reading a lot and getting back into my art. A little partying here and there helps too. :)

  5. Figured contracting out was the only way I remotely had a chance to catch up to you in hours worked per week :P
    Congrats on getting back into your art!
    I’ll have to try adding a dash of party into my schedule, see if it helps alleviate the work-based insanity ;)
    We’ll have to meet for coffee and catch up, soon.

    Hahaha, no one wants to work as many hours as I do. It’s not sane, trust me. But contracting is good money; I kinda miss it.

    Yes, coffee soon!
