An old school-friend of mine who has a background in graphic design (and pretty much all things visually creative) has recently gone freelance. If anyone needs any rebranding, logos designed or if you just want to check out some really very lovely images, get in contact with Michael at Pixeldaddy.

Ten days off

toxic — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 17:33:06 +0000

I have ten days off work starting tomorrow. Rough itinerary is as follows:

Sunday: Go see Otis. Monday: Haircut. Tuesday: Town to get ideas for wedding. Wednesday: App development. Thursday: Visit possible wedding location. Friday: App development. Saturday: App development. Sunday: App development. Monday: App development. Tuesday: App development.

It’s going to go so quickly, but I’ll try to get some serious progress going on the [...]

We are getting married this year

toxic — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 17:38:44 +0000

Or maybe next year, if the right place isn’t available until then. With all her recent stress at work, Jane has decided to take the bull by the horns and we are going to just do it. All I’ve had to do so far is choose a waistcoat colour for me, Lewis, Ethan, Colin and [...]

Well, the support forum is up and running. At the moment, as I have nothing to support, it’s more of a progress forum. And sadly, the first things I’m doing is design work, and I have no way of creating vector graphics… I mocked up the first logo in Paint and it’s pretty basic. Gonna [...]

My 2011 year in blogging

I had been meaning to read this email for ages, but only got around to it today. It’s another reason why WordPress is incredible.

My 2011 year in blogging.

New PC is epic

toxic — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 21:28:55 +0000

It’s just so fast and lovely and Windows 7 is amazing. All I needed to do was plug things into it and it’d go “Alright then, start using the thing you just plugged in”. A far cry from the old PC which needed to be configured here, there and everywhere, and have it’s hand held [...]

Happy New Year!

2011 was good, but also kinda shit.

I remember back when I started this blog, I intended to use it to explain about my depression, and for Jane to give her input as well, but that never happened really. I never really knew how to put it into words. And now it’s the other way around. [...]

As well as becoming as Uncle…

toxic — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 23:46:59 +0000

I bought a new PC today. Well, we put it on Jane’s credit card and I’ll pay her for it over the course of the next couple of months, but yeah. It’s spanking, and I can finally start realising the memory-intensive dream of developing WP7 apps and designing styles for phpBB and stuff. Seriously, our [...]

And the name is…

Otis Wynn Stewart. 9lbs, he was.

Another little Stewart dude running around – just what the World needs!

Can’t wait to meet him!

I am an Uncle

Again.

Mum just phoned to let me know that Jasmine’s little brother has arrived. No name or weight yet, but hey, he’s well.

So happy for David and Katie right now!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to anyone and everyone who reads this. Jane and I had a lovely time and I hope you had a lovely time with the people you care for most. That’s what this time of year is all about, really.

It’s Christmas?

toxic — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 18:31:28 +0000

It is!

It’s really snuck up on me this year, it’s Christmas Eve Eve already. Doing the late shifts didn’t help, I feel like I’ve lost a day somewhere this week.

I’m beginning to get in the spirit, looking at the decorations in the house. I got my first Christmas present today – Jane got me a [...]

Night shifts: Part 2

toxic — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 01:01:25 +0000

Night shifts over and done with. That was… An experience. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so tired in all my life, and I’m sure I’ve missed a day somewhere this week.

In terms of actual work, on the first shift I really got into it, processed a huge delivery and created new bays and ends [...]

Merry Exterminate Day

Out with Jane in the car again, drove past our local Dalek hobbyist – check this out.

Night shifts: Part 1

toxic — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 18:35:02 +0000

I’m doing a few night shifts at work this fine pre-Christmas week and to tell the truth in not looking forward to them. I don’t really know what to expect. We’re getting huge deliveries in (which is to be expected), so I have to process them and make the department look spiffing for the morning.

I’ll [...]
