Blast from the past

Was quickly scanning through my hotmail spam box and found this:

This was my status AT LEAST ten years ago, probably longer (as I never looked for another job until at the very end when I was trying to work out if I was going to stay or move back to Sweden). :-)

Ten years. Time flies!

Release party outfit

Tee design front: "We will Capture you".

Tee design back: "We are the FORMS. Resistance is futile."

The front is inspired by the "new" company I work for. Starting from January 1 this year we have divided the company into "solution labs", my lab is called "Capture". The back of the t-shirt is inspired by the fact that I'm forever stuck with the old product (FORMS), being one of the few that still knows it back to front. And then a flirt with Star Trek, the BORG.
The tee and the design was selected and put together using the (much fun!) design tool at www.spreadshirt.se.

This is what I wore for the release party at work the other day. It was a costume-party with the theme "future". :-) Sadly there weren't a lot of dress up going on, most people had "forgotten" to put something special on. But there were a few bright spots, one that was either "a retiree" (or on summer vacation), another was wearing a tin foil hat (because the ozone layer will be too thin to go outside with a bare head) but despite the meager outcome on costumes it was a nice event. I got to have a glass of wine (OOOOOOH it was nice!!), a chat with long lost colleagues and more than a few laughs.

Release party

Despite the poor language used in the invite I'm quite looking forward to tonight's party at work. Apart from the fact that people usually don't hold back when it comes to costumes it's been such a long time since I did something outside home not involving Tobias (and S) so it's quite a novel feeling. :-)

Must start to get ready.
