What's Going On?

| | Tickle My Senses (1)

Just when I'm getting ready to jump into the pool of job wonders, I -all of a sudden- get assignments in. One after the other. Today I have been busy designing an html email [which is a true pain in the 'A'] for Maurice. While I was working on the files, we kept in touch [in case we had to answer the odd question] through MSN, which is quicker than email or cellphone [I find phone calls annoyingly intrusive at times, especially when I'm trying to solve work-related problems which take intensive brain power].

Maurice told me to stop working around 22.45 and finish things tomorrow morning instead. A few minutes later, out of the blue, he sends me another message telling me that his business partner in NY got a lead to a company that needs to have three websites designed and build for three different countries, Colombia, Argentina and Peru. Then he added that his partner thought "I" might be interested in the job... Is he kidding? Of course I am... I guess the stuff that I did for them so far must have left an impression some how, which is cool, because the word seems to spread and I'm not complaining. Hell no...

ps, something I forgot to post a while ago [I hope my apple picture has contributed to this as well, along with those who where nicked computers/link.png from this website]:

------------------------------
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Apple Inc., responding to criticism from environmental groups, unveiled plans on Wednesday that Chief Executive Steve Jobs claimed would make the company greener than most of its competitors. Read More -->

In "A Greener Apple," Steve Jobs provides an update on the state of Apple's environmental record, identifying "how far along Apple actually is in removing toxic chemicals from its products and recycling its older products." Jobs notes that "upon investigating Apple's current practices and progress towards these goals, I was surprised to learn that in many cases Apple is ahead of, or will soon be ahead of, most of its competitors in these areas. Whatever other improvements we need to make, it is certainly clear that we have failed to communicate the things that we are doing well." [May 02, 2007 A Greener Apple]

Expat Life: I moved from Amsterdam to London, Aug. 2006. Things didn't quite work out as planned and I found myself on my own in a foreign country.

ME? I don't think so... tsk, pffft....]

Indulgence: English full breakfast once in a while when not counting calories, Indonesian fried rice and a Sateh [Nasi Goreng] like my great grandma used to make, Thai Tom Ka Kai or Thai Green Curry Noodle soup original traditional recipes, definitely a peaty Islay Scotch preferably shared with my best friends in Scotland [Inge and Frank] and a Dutch coffee when I'm in Amsterdam with a piece of Dark Chocolate!
