Just an all-around bad day today. Our little company was supposed to be moving into funky new office space this month. We’ve been wrangling back and forth for weeks over the offer to lease. The offer was accepted, and yesterday my boss met with the building owner. He said it went very well, and then today we found out the deal has fallen through. No reason given. And the company we sublet from now needs the space immediately. It could be working from home for a while for us, or worse, not working at all for me. Who knows? Part of the reason the deal could have fallen through is that we may be guilty by association with the rest of the “high tech” and “dot com” companies, even though our company is technically a business services company. We’re more like Kinko’s than Cisco.

Bloggie Winners Announced, Alas…
Well, the winners of the Bloggies™ have been announced, and sadly, I was not among them. Seems fitting, though, that Consolation Champs should be a runner-up. Thanks to Nikolai, I’ve discovered lots of places I’d not seen before, and lots of folks have discovered me. Congratulations to all the winners. Special mention to Matt, whose Metafilter cleaned up, and Tom, who kicked arse as well.
Gotta work extra hard now to win an Anti-Bloggie™.
