One Person's Blog

For what it's worth, I am having fun with my blog. Producing something is fun. I guess like art, you don't produce something because others are asking you too, you do it because you want to or are inspired to. (By elevating my blog to the level of art, I can justify blogging even if nobody is reading ;-)

For those of you who visit my blog directly- I changed my colors! The usability person inside of me was has been perturbed for months by the white text on dark green background. It's harder to read that way. But being subjected to dial-up speed internet for 3 months I wasn't much inspired to change it. And in fact, I wasn't much inspired to change it when I made the changes today - but in the span of a few mins, I could try some variations and make a pick. I kept it simple. Kinda 80's-ish, huh? Well, I'm an 80s child!

Also - pictures are coming! It is one of my "projects" - activities that I am defining and using to substitute in the hours of the day I used to be working.

Not working, by the way, is awesome. More on that later!

Slowly Posting Pictures

I was able to download my pics to CDs. A lot of places offer it...mow I know that I could have just bought a CF memory card reader. :) Internet connection is really slow it takes a few mins per picture, but I will slowly post. See the Historic Hue entry!

Blog Facelift

Sorry for the lack of pictures. I guess I am not technologically advanced enough to figure out a clever way to upload photos on the go - I'll have to wait until I get home. Also the blog style/colors really need a change! I'll try to do that sometime.

I am still in Hong Kong. Jina and I both have bad colds and feel pretty drained, but at least I dont feel like I have the flu anymore. We are going to take it easy - hopefully get massages today!

Launch

I am leaving tomorrow! It came up so fast. I am, as usual, not fully prepared. I still need to find a meditation place and potentially somewhere I can volunteer for a bit. Yes, I always have grand plans but that rarely means I put the effort in to make them happen :) I guess I rely on the saving grace of travel - which is that even if your well-laid plans dont work out, you are still in another world and can just enjoy existing there.

A bientot!
