It has been such a relaxing fortnight with the trip away and a lighter week due to the long weekend in Melbourne. The lead up was a bit stressful given the original plan was to go to New Caledonia for a vacation for the wife’s birthday. The riots there meant it was a chaotic last […]
This week has been a LOT gentler than the ones in the past with a lot of things moving on the Stanford front: It’s a little scary that the whole move is so close, and I STILL have a few things to iron out. It’s that nervous kind of energy that permeates everything right now. […]
This week has been a bit of a blur to be honest. I’m currently out in our country hospital and have spent most of the last 24hrs in said hospital. It’s a bit unusual to be this busy here, but hey, that’s healthcare! This week also had us quizzing our trainees in a mock exam […]
This week had some unexpected work cancellations and all-day lists that were reduced to half days. You know what? It was GREAT! I managed to get to the home stretch of finalising the US visa, meet with my accountant and banker and get some other paperwork finished while having the time to explore a new […]
It happens to be our anniversary next week and my wife and I decided on a short and early road trip to celebrate. About an hour out of Melbourne is a place called Healesville and it was just amazing to see the shades of Autumn in full swing. It occurred to both of us that […]

It has been an exciting couple of weeks on the creative side of things. It’s made me question just how much time I can spend on existing projects vs starting new ones. One of the major events has been that I’ve been accepted for another year into the Samsung Member Stars team. Essentially, it’s their […]
As of yesterday, the major parts of the apartment renovations are finally complete! It’s taken a ridiculously long time but the panels for the integrated fridge and dishwasher are DONE! While there’ still little things to get done like the edges of the floor and paint touch ups, the whole apartment is now clear of […]
This whole “work-life” balance thing might have some legs! Last week was one of the most pleasant work weeks I’ve had in years! I suppose when you begin your week with a lunch time walk by the beach on a Monday, you expect that the week will go well. The rest of the week was […]
A Vivid Visit It was a bit of a whirlwind trip but a visit to Vivid Live was completed this weekend. Vivid is in it’s 12th year and it has grown BIG! Back in the day, it was mainly 3d mapped projections on the Sydney Opera House, Bridge and some of the city buildings. Something […]
