The agency I work for turned 10 yesterday. The boys & I spent many sleepless nights putting together someting that was truly amazing to showcase what 10 years really means when an agency pays no heed to conventions and makes waves from the word go.

I am also looking for the appropriate words to let you know how I feel about the Blog of the Year thing that [...]

If you’ve been reading, I’ve been in a funk about my two final decisions of where to join and it was about money over job satisfaction. Life and the powers that be have a strange way of working things out.

After a Friday spent at interviews, its even worse coming back to the hell hole. Its made me realize how right I was to finally let go and leave. I am also proud that I tried really hard to change something that I couldn’t. It gives me [...]
