What did you see today? I saw a few things of personal interest, I saw things coming to fruition, I saw my girlfriend (that nearly killed me on my bike), I saw blues skies and dark clouds on the same day.
In detail:
Things of personal interest. I went into the local art shoppe and had a mooch around. Noticed some rather expensive watercolours, some fine drawing pencils, and something caught my eye: A dipping pen. I have loved calligraphy since I really got interested in fountain pens, and have recently been seen in local stationers looking at cheap calligraphy sets. It’s a dirty habit, and one I must stop. However, this caught my eye because the nibs were relatively cheap, although I couldn’t get a price on the actual pen shaft itself.
Things coming to fruition. Today saw my training manual for the Content Management Systems nearly into final drafts, ready to be ported into Indesign, ready for printing and binding. That’s been a long road. The other long road has been trying to get domains mapped for one of our clients. They already own a lot of domains, and needed them all to point to the same site. That’s been the long and tedious tech road. It’s nearly over.
I saw my girlfriend. We’d had a bit of an ‘apart’ weekend, not in a a bad way, but in a ‘because of circumstances’ way. So I made the effort after work to get the ol’ mountain bike out and cycle a total of around 14 miles to see her. It was worth it. We had a dinner together, sat and chatted. I really shouldn’t have had so much food, as I felt quite ill on the way back. It was good though. I’ll be seeing her again tomorrow evening.
Finally, I saw blue skies and dark clouds in the same day. Lunchtime saw some fantastic weather as I mooched around town, yet the middle of the afternoon saw some horrendous dark clouds. I almost thought that it might have rained off this evening, but thankfully the dark clouds disappeared.
So those were a few things I saw today. What do you see?
