Music r0x!

I work in an office that’s cubed now, soon going to a collaborative office with 24 inch cube “walls” over the work surfaces. I’m 6′3″, no problem looking over those!
I bought a pair of headphones and burned some MP3s to CD for work. I got so used to listening to music when I was working [...]

Swamped…

I’ve got so many things going on at work and so little time at home that I’m starting to feel overwhelmed. I feel like I’m not planning enough at work, and I’m definitely getting paranoid that I’m going to let something slip.
My company is planning an office move, something that I’m massively responsible for - [...]
