Hours away

Posted in Personals, School, the ATL on 9 May 2007 | No Comments »

In a few hours, I’ll be on a plane to Hawai’i, leaving behind the nit-picky final QA of a large project (can you move this one pixel up? no… how about down? and drop this word to the next line…), 50+ hour work weeks (we’re a little understaffed at the moment), and my car that’s [...]
