We got the keys to the studio! And Shannon found a perfect name: Atelier Awful.

Filament (my name for the Philips design system) launched internally with a newsletter. This sounds simple but is a culmination of years of effort and, mostly, me learning. It's a big step towards sharing something publicly we can be proud of.

My eyes really wore me out this week. I can't believe I'm looking forward to surgery. And my arm begun hurting ambiently. I preferred going up the proverbial hill.

I've bought tickets for the funeral in Florida and, before that, Mexico City. It feels retro and I enjoy the feeling of liberty but don't ever want to return to indiscriminate air travel.

And Shannon picked up her new bike. I'm afraid it might be more beautiful than mine (nearly the same model, different frame color).
