I killed Christmas

Well, December is here. The eagle-eyed amongst you will have noticed that this year I'm not bothering with snow, Christmas trees or silly falling snow, I'm keeping it simple.

There's a number of reasons for this, but the main one is that I haven't really got enough time to play around with such things. I've been doing all sorts of important other stuff, like playing around with Minify!!!. It's a neat little thing that squishes CSS and Javascript down into a single minimized request. Rather neat.

The rest of my time is spent looking at lots of pieces of paper, writing lots of words and counting down the time until the holidays start. After that, someone else will have to look at the paper and write the words.

It's cold and I've been wrapping things up all day. Ergo, it's Christmas time

No updates in a while. I've had quite an interesting December. First was the wonderful experience of decided what work I was going to do this year, as opposed to what I'm going to put off until next year. As the month progressed, the latter pile started to get rather large, so in the end I just went on holiday.

New York was fun. But very very very very cold. I've never seen New York in the snow before, but now I have I'm happy to say that I'd not like to see it again for a while. Pretty, but painful. I also hear that the airports shut the day after I got back (Sunday). Anyhow, I'm back in the wonders of the north, which is surprisingly warm in comparison to last week.

I'll probably spend all the time between now and the new year inventing new ways in which to get drunk. Mostly involving Martini glasses.
