Feeling overwhelmed by the comments on today's blog post about moving on. I'm excited but going with a touch of sadness; I'll miss IBM a lot
| rooreynolds I've resigned from IBM. I've accepted the position of Portfolio Executive, Social Media at BBC Vision, where I start on the 18th of August. |
|
| rooreynolds Going in to work today. I have some exciting news to share later. |
|
| rooreynolds Feeling a little bit rough. A cold, rather than the vomiting bug though. Resting. |
|
| rooreynolds @gialyons I'd be averse to getting adverse reactions when using 'averse' and 'adverse' properly. :-) |
|
| rooreynolds If you're ever in IBM Hursley, order a Frocolate from the Cha Bar. Blended ice, milk, chocolate and cream. It's yummy outside on a hot day. |
|
| rooreynolds Sketching and drafting. |
|
| rooreynolds Is there any better smell on a hot day than the smell of a barbeque, with an undercurrent of cut grass in the background? I don't think so. |
|
| rooreynolds American mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may be in trouble but they have cute names which make me think of Terry Nutkins. |
|
| rooreynolds Lawn shredded. Dog walked. Feeling alive again. |
|
| rooreynolds Struggling. I think the best plan might be for me to get up and start doing things rather than waiting until I'm awake. First: lawn-mowing. |
|
| rooreynolds @michaelrowe01 Nordrassil (EU). After agreeing to near-infinite variations of EULAs and Terms of Service, I'm (back) in. But now, to sleep. |
|
| rooreynolds Still installing patches. WoW requires an unbelievable amount of patching. Getting to read about fixes to things like 'Gnomish Poultryizer'. |
|
| rooreynolds "Please wait a few minutes to vote again". But this is public service voting, Mr YouTube. Oh well. |
|
| rooreynolds Patching. Getting ready to see friends for dinner. Obsessively voting down idiot's comments on YouTube to increase the average intelligence. |
|
| rooreynolds Winchester: full of students, Americans, and American students. Nice to bump into @alicebartlett (from the first category). |
|
| rooreynolds Sitting outside Winchester cathedral. Enjoying a (rare, today) burst of sunshine. |
|
| rooreynolds @AliceBartlett Yep. My character is called 'Chabar' (to rhyme with 'Shabba') in honour of the beloved Hursley tea bar. |
|
| rooreynolds Uh-oh. I'm Utterly hooked on Warcraft. I am a level 11 Hunter with a pet raptor called Rex and a pet boar called Boris. Horde, for the win! |
|
| rooreynolds @andypiper, @martinjgale, congratulations to both of you. |
