http://blog.conall.net A Glimpse Into Conall's Inner Thoughts... Thu, 12 Jun 2008 01:53:07 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Now that things are actually set in motion, I'm happy to mention this here. For the last few months, Ciara and I have been looking for a house to buy. We found a house in early May and we passed the point of no return (and yet an uncertain closing date) ... http://blog.conall.net/2008/06/12/actual-news/ I've bounced around a lot of places in the last few weeks. In early April, I was in the Zurich office for a few days (and yes, they really do have a fireman's pole, no I didn't go down it), before going to Innsbrook, Austria for an internal work conference and ... http://blog.conall.net/2008/05/28/no-longer-in-a-state-of-flux/ And so I begin another trip around the photosphere... http://blog.conall.net/2008/03/27/0x19/ The last couple of weeks have been busy, both in work and personally. There's nothing specifically newsworthy, there has just been a lot going on and not quite enough time to fit it all in. Things are starting to settle down now, so I've more time to do random things ... http://blog.conall.net/2008/02/06/random-mutterings/ So, Christmas the annual arbitrary numerical rollover day have been and gone. This week, I've been off work finally (I was oncall over Christmas week) for a full week for the first time in quite a while. I've been spending it lazying round, trying to recover from a cold I caught ... http://blog.conall.net/2008/01/04/2008/ One thing I've been meaning to do for months is to organise and publish photos from various trips and outings that have been gathering since last February. Last week, I finally stopped putting it off and started sorteding and uploading the photos to flickr. This week, I'll sort through my photos from ... http://blog.conall.net/2007/12/03/photos-2/ So, I've been in the US for almost 2 weeks now, so my trip is coming slowly winding up and I'll be back home in Dublin by this time next week. Apart from work, I've been up to quite a few things:I explored NYC for the first time, taking in ... http://blog.conall.net/2007/10/31/earthquake/ Arrived back from my holiday Sunday afternoon. Trip to New England was really, really good. I've lots of photos to prove it, they may even appear online soon. However, I'm almost out of time back in Dublin. I'm off on a business trip to New York and then San Francisco ... http://blog.conall.net/2007/10/13/back-but-for-how-long/ In case anyone is using posts over here to check if I'm alive, yes I'm alive. I've simply been neglecting this part of the internet. So, what have I been up to over the last 2+ months? (yikes, it has been a while!). Mainly working, a little bit of travel to ... http://blog.conall.net/2007/09/16/proof-of-life-2/ So, news on the personal front, I now have an apartment. I've just moved into a 2 bedroom apartment right here, sharing with Emma. Now I have the incredibly taxing 5 minute commute to the office and all sorts of new and exciting ethnic food choices nearby. :) http://blog.conall.net/2007/07/12/apartment/
