Wanted: Personal Puppetmaster

Wanted: Personal Puppetmaster

I need assistance with my life. Obviously the choices I’ve made over the years have not had positive results.

Yes, I’m married, but things could be better. Yes I have a fantastic job, but my work/life balance is non-existent.

Are you in your mid-thirties? Have you had success with you romance, employment, finances – enough so that you feel comfortable guiding me through my headaches?

Come join me as a personal puppetmaster; make my decisions for me, in love, finances, employment, time, hobbies.

Coordinate with my darling wife as to what’s best for me, using your experience as a base.

Salary to be discussed based on my ability to put my life in your hands, and how responsible you perform.

This is an ongoing project, hopefully self-terminating (meaning: I’d love to get to a point where I can manage my life on my own, without your help).

Wedge: what is it good/bad for?

Here’s a short list of what a wedge is good and bad for:

Good:

  1. For cheese
  2. Holding a door open
  3. Breaking up logs for firewood
  4. Improving your golf score
  5. Visually describing data in a chart
  6. Bedroom antics (yes, there’s a product for that)
  7. Stopping jets from falling off of aircraft carriers
  8. Securing an arch (keystone)

Bad:

  1. Splitting up a marriage

As you can see, wedge’s have a multitude of good uses. Let’s keep it that way, ok? Let’s stay away from the bad, please.

What have I been up to lately?

An IPTC asset management tool for my employer – allows mobile photographers to upload batches of images and in-browser assign IPTC tags. Completed uploads are routed to various output channels (print, blogs, etc).

A real-estate data normalizing tool that will assist editors and designers in capturing real-estate data from providers, normalize it for print and online, and quickly layout print pages. No more hunting and pecking, or formatting based on each vendor!

Cultivating Conscience – Justine’s baby, really, but a great adventure for us both: Attempting to live within 100 food-miles.

Anniversary dinner (2yrs)

Me: the pork roulades.
