Where the hell have you been?

Hello. You may have noticed that things have been rather slow around here. It’s not the only thing I’ve neglected either — my World of Warcraft account has lapsed, Bioshock hasn’t been played beyond level 2 and hundreds of emails remain unopened. I’ve been meaning to offer an explanation, but I haven’t had the chance to get around to that either!

Firstly, I’ve discovered that I’m going to be a father and, just a few weeks later, discovered that it’s going to be a boy! (I’m a growned up?!) This lead me to make a few bold moves and quit the freelance circuit to take a new role at Nixon McInnes where I’d already been freelancing for a couple of months working on More Than’s rather experimental (for an insurance company) Living project.

Since joining the rather superb team full-time I’ve been busy working with Josh on NM’s pretty awesome re-brand, mincing about networking at dConstruct in a pretty awesome t-shirt, and getting stuck into some rather interesting social media projects.

It’s all rather flipping exciting!

Anyway, because I’ve been so busy, I do apologise if you’ve sent me an email and I haven’t replied! Hopefully I’ll get around to replying eventually — if I haven’t, please give me a prod.

I’ve also got a redesign for Antikewl Daily in the pipeline though, being a designer, I’m still fiddle-arseing around with the details… hopefully not perpetually. One of the biggest changes will be moving the asides to be delivered through del.icio.us. Look over to the left (at the moment, though if you’re viewing this article on the (currently unreleased) new layout it’d probably be on the right — unless I changed my mind) to see where they’ve got to.

I’m really keen not to fall out of the routine of updating this blog, so please (again) prod me if I don’t! As ever, I have a load of stuff that I want to blog about, but never have the time to do it.

So, anyway, wish me luck!
