morslaI'm back at work again, after a week on the west coast of New Zealand's South Island. It's the first proper holiday that I've taken in quite some time, and my first trip outside Australia since 2007. I'll write a bit more about it later in the week, when the trip has had time to sink in properly. This time last week, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aeliel and I had spent the day seeking out waterfalls in Arthur's Pass. A few days later, we climbed up onto Franz Joseph glacier and walked through temperate rainforest. It took me a world away from the towering backlog of work on my desk.
Right at the moment, I'm looking a bit further back into the past - browsing through old journal entries that have been tagged and left for a future rainy day. I love reading through through old entries sometimes... I often feel like I'm becoming less eloquent with age; language skills deteriorating from a shortening attention span and an over-reliance on Twitter.
This entry describes exactly how I'm feeling at the moment: extremely painful neck and shoulders, leaving me unable to turn my head, and making it difficult to sleep. It also has a handy recommendation fromkitling for an Osteopath.
It's dated April 2005. I guess it's probably about time I went and did something about it...
I've also checked to make sure they're still in business, and was pleasantly surprised to find that Andrew's details come up in the first few hits from Google.

Date: 2010-10-05 07:28 am (UTC)In other news - could I interview you for my project? As a subcontractor who uses forums and social networks to connect to other Archaeology people, I'd be really interested in talking to you for the services industry bit of my project. My interview list is currently made up of an ecclectic bunch of web designers, editors, management consultants and PR folks, and more diversity is always good :)
The interview can be as public or anonymous as you like (if you want anonymity, I can delete this comment as well). Send me an email (ben@ben-leong.id.au) if you're interested, and I can send you some more info.
