It’s 2009 and it’s lunchtime on the first day back at work. I’ve emptied my inbox and made some lists (which basically just gave me a fast heart because of all the things I have to do…)
Here are some things that I’m doing over the next few weeks:
- Driving Theory Test this Wednesday. I don’t really know the Highway Code
- Devoted and Disgruntled this weekend in London. This is the annual theatre Open Space event, facilitated by Phelim McDermott of Improbable. It’s quite an inspiring way to start the new year as it suddenly makes things seem possible rather than difficult
- I’m working with New International Encounter, the theatre company behind The End of Everything Ever, on a marketing consultancy
- Seeing Xavier Leroy at Sadler’s Wells in a couple of weeks
I was going to post some kind of cultural new year’s resolutions here, but haven’t got round to it. So that’s one resolution broken already…
Oh, and I’m also eventually going to migrate all the work stuff on here over to my new site www.matthew-austin.co.uk (still massively under construction).
