I’m done for the Christmas, the office is closed, voice mail is changed, vacation autoresponders done and dusted and I’m set to enjoy some time with the family! I’ve no blog posts scheduled and in a way, it’s liberating. Eircom, on the other hand, seriously busted my balls yesterday and I’ve a post to piece…

Notes
Off For The Weekend
It’s been a while since I actually took a day or two off work with the intention of doing nothing (I took a week off in August to produce / direct / act in a theatre production which lasted from the crack of dawn to well into the night). This morning, says he with one…
Sticking With Pink
October has come and gone and so has the “Pink For October” campaign but over the last month I’ve become accustomed to the electric pink feel of the current blog template surrounding kenmc.com so I’m going to run with it for a while more, perhaps alter it up a little for Christmas. I wouldn’t be…
No Room To Work Today
Yep… this is my desk for the afternoon. I’ve shifted around from my own desk (behind the clutter of screens on the left) to the small one which normally houses a single flat-panel screen (17″). Actively going between all screens; L-R Aidan’s Inspiron 1501 (having the HDD repaired), 19″ Dell LCD, 17″ Dell LCD, 15″…
Gone Pink For October
I might be a few days late with this one but with a few hours down time I’ve thrown together a pink stylesheet for the blog in support of breast cancer awareness for the month of October. More details can be found on PinkForOctober.org. Jennifer Farley made reference to some pink designs during the week,…
Away Time Equals Thinking Time
Got back to Kilkenny this afternoon (go on the cats!) after spending Friday evening / Saturday / Sunday morning at the family home in Sligo and I have to say, it was great. Even now as I lie flaked out on the bed with the laptop battery showing no life in the status bar, I…
Regaining A Sense Of Normality, Reviews To Come
Half twelve at night, I’ve a house to be tidying and I’m finding myself overly distracted by twitter, jaiku, bebo and God knows what else on the internet. Must mean I’m regaining a sense of normality. Back to the office tomorrow after slogging it out in the Watergate Theatre, Kilkenny, this past week for Cannibal!…
The End Product Of A Theatrical Production Line
Cannibal! The Musical! which opens tonight is the latest end product off what has been a long production line running for The Devious Theatre Company of whom I am ‘Technical Director’. Where we have made efforts to make our job titles and job descriptions within the group quite refined and specific, when it all boils…
On Holiday, Putting Work On Hold For A Week
About 5:40pm yesterday it dawned on me that I’m on holiday. Or I should say “on holiday”, knowing that the meaning is pretty much useless to me as it involves no travel, no sun, no breaks, nada. Now, the trip I’m lining up to Toronto in November – that will be a holiday – until…
Busy And Happy Out
Keeping myself away from Twitter and other happenings until the bell rang at 5:30 on what has been a busy day. Why so busy? Well, today marks the return of Event Ireland to a two-person operation as John departed on Friday for pastures new in Waterford. I’ll echo his own thoughts leaving and say it…
