"When you want to fool the world, tell the truth. "

what's there to say?!?

still going to a variety of job-interviews. the last one from an unusual source. my current employer. explanation?

well, a few weeks ago i basically told the boss, that if iwas to keep being purely a web-developer, i'd find somewhere else to be just that. i mean, somewhere where they pay me more, and somewhere where the pace of change isn't defined by a 15,000 employee national telco. that's not too much to ask.

he reacted, i have to say, and set me up with the boss of a new, tiny business unit in charge of strategic and conceptual sales. and this right when i'd finally decided to leave this place, to find some small highly sucesful web-development company, with a fast moving pace, and creativity in focus. ihave offers from networkers and icon media labs, and the decision isn't easy.

yes, this is the ultimate luxury problem, but still, it's my problem, and i want to write about it. iguess i figured out that there are no rational criteria by which to choose between multiple jobs. assuming of course that the pay is fair, and the content interesting in all of them. there is only gut feeling. and i don't think i'm very good at gut feeling.

every one of these three jobs have distinct advantages and distinct disadvantages. every one of them appeals to me by some obscure criteria, as does the ultimate option of becoming my own boss. i guess i just have to face up to the fact, that there are choices in life that can't be analyzed, and that should just be acted out to the fullest. i'll be taking one day at a time for now, so expect some strange rantings in the coming weeks.

other stuff:
the knee is coming along slowly, but painfully. way too slowly imho, but that's la vie.

i made a quality-of-life enhancing decision, when i moved the tv away from the bed, into the livingroom, yesterday. damn, i missed reading at bed-time, instead of always just watching crap on tv. the decision cam of itself, when i inherited an ancient leather chair of the large, and cosy kind. i masde room for it in my livingroom, and decided it was too much of a tv-chair to pass on that chance.

otherwise, my life seems to be approaching normality, day-by-day. i think i may have conquered an ounce of my restlessness, by admiting to myself that the knee will keep me earthbound for another year or so. the stress-relief is good for me.

i still want to do a million things, a million glorious things, preferably. but i think i'll settle for a life of newness, of continuous fresh experience, of learning and of broadening horizons. that means travel is a must, but the hurry has gone out of it. i've convinced myself that there will be time yet to do all the things i want, even if i do 'waste' a year here in denmark just working away at nothing inparticular, spending money, getting drunk, and focusing on one thing only: fun.....
