December 2009

Now it's getting real - after about 2 years of leisure pleasure (most of which I spent in Japan) I am officially resuming my old job on December 1st! Though I will work on a part-time basis it may be difficult to post every week, so I am aiming for something like a (roughly) bi-weekly rythm henceforth; also, posts may come out on different days of the week, depending on my work schedule.

So please do keep checking in, there will certainly be regular updates!
