Reasons #10

Gadzooks! I broked my website AND went away for a weekend with no PC! I could blog from my netbook, but I had no tools to fix me up! Anyways I’m back, it’s Monday morning and I’m feeling might chipper today…here’s some reasons why:

• I had a great weekend in the countryside, fresh air and blue skies are the best thing to recharge the batteries and prepare for the weekend ahead.
• Rob gave 2000 people a high-five on the way to work in New York…watch the smiles crack over otherwise thoroughly depressed faces, there are 2000 people with at least one more reason to be cheerful.
• I have a key hiring decision that will be completed tomorrow – meaning a new addition to my team is imminent.
• The volcano is still spewing ash clouds over Europe – but on the upside, a temporary hiatus on travel cannot be a bad thing for us frequent travellers. A chance to get ahead maybe? A chance to use some of the technology at our disposal to stay in contact with remote stakeholders?
• This Jay-Z parody is awesome – bought to you from New Hampshire…
• Although I didn’t get the job, things are still good and I’m really excited about the next few months at work.

What makes you so cheerful today?
