I entered a local talent competition today, with a cover of David Bowie's "Life on Mars?" My voice sounded ****ing awful, since the song's above and beyond my vocal range (didn't have time to learn it in a new key), its complex accompaniment makes it hard to sing, and I've got a cold. However, my piano performance was good enough that I think I've got a shot at advancing.

I'd just shown him some simple but effective things that can be done with the Google suite of apps and a few iFrames. He's been frantically pacing about, eyes wide at the possibilities it opens for new business.
I'm just happy to have a job where I can do what I do best, and be valued for my work.
Just two years ago I was being eaten alive by the retail corporate machine. It feels great to be free!
So that's my Saturday.
