Signs you've been with your partner for a very long time #1.

I'm slowly getting back into work mode.

Currently listening to a Jeff Mills Essential Mix from 1998.

Get a Mac they said.

All your problems will be solved they said.

I've got to say I've not been that impressed switching back to a Mac from PC.

Safari is a nightmare.

When so much work is online it keeps screwing me over.

Need some time to figure out optimal settings for everything!

I woke up yesterday freaking out.

My vision was blurred and I couldn't get it to correct.

My wife booked an optometrist appointment for me.

I was panicking and pretty upset.

But there is a happy ending.

Turns out Chris is middle-age and needs reading glasses.

Only in New Zealand.

My friend just messaged me and asked if I wanted to go for a coffee.

She lives out of town, but is coming into the city.

The reason?

To pick up some dead native birds from the airport which have been flown from an Island where they are pests.

This is fully on-brand for her.

Tell me your favourite hip-hop album and then tell me why it's Midnight Marauders.

After having dinner the other night with KA McKercher I wrote bit of ranty article about the future of design.

Don't discard your ideas.

When imposter syndrome creeps in, fearing they're not good enough, it's easy to feel discouraged about sharing them.

But without sharing your ideas, you'll never really know.

If your gut tells you there's something in it, you owe it to yourself to set that sucker free!

I just closed 1274 tabs on Google Chrome on mobile.

🤯

I knew there was a lot open so I counted each one as I closed it.

I now feel motion sick from the tabs moving across each time I shut one down.

I don't know it was even possible to have this many tabs open.

This advice will help 80% of people improve their customer interviews:

Focus less on asking the questions and more on listening and responding.

It's a 'discussion framework' not 'a list of questions'.
