Life I was so boring this week, it was amazing. I went to a terrible place (basically the 90s) to hang out with a friend, got a massage (OK 2) and a facial and a pedi, and worked out with my trainer a bunch – managed to get up to 300 kilos on the leg…

Life Came back to the UK for <48 hours just because I needed a gym and a washing machine, which made me vastly less stressed! Then went to NYC for 3 nights, where I got to catch up with some friends and drank lots of iced tea. Made it back to the UK for the…

Life Talking to my freelancer friends, it’s clear the first year is the hardest and there are some bad decisions that we all end up making for ourselves. For me this week has been a week of accepting those bad decisions and their consequences, and I’ve been feeling really shitty as a result. I have a…

Life It’s been a joke for a while that my friends can’t keep up with where I am, but I finally lost track of my own travel. I was in the UK all week and thought I was flying Friday but I was actually flying Saturday. Discovered trying to check in on Thursday morning! But…

Life After getting back to the UK from DC (via Frankfurt – my favourite sandwich), I drove to Aberystwith via Cadbury land (so fun). Drove back, dropped car off at my parent’s place, and caught a train to London. Spent a day there for a conference, and a second hanging out, and now I have…

Life Started the week in NYC, went to DC, finished the week in the UK. Completely wrecked! Leaving for Wales tomorrow. Past-Cate was a bit too optimistic about… everything. That being said I had a great time in NYC and DC even though I didn’t really go anywhere – just the shopping mall where I…

Life Last days in Denver, making the most of the yoga pass! Managed to do a little touristing, get a hair cut (and color!) and hang out with people, which was cool. Then on to NYC where it’s been really cool to catch up with people, been hanging out with awesome technical women (10 in…

Life Hanging out with lots of my friends at 360iDev, which was great. After the conference I’m chilling in Denver for a bit so I got to spend some quality time with Chiu-Ki IRL, and went to yoga. It’s really great to be in a city again! I love it. Work Conferencing, then catching up.…

Life Mostly just sorting things out before leaving! Booking last bits of this trip etc. Went to Frankfurt for the night, then on to LA for my friend’s wedding, which was great – it’s wonderful to see her so happy. Flight out of LA was cancelled, which was really stressful because I was going straight…
