smacss.com/workshops Things I didn't think I'd do today: explain the word "honky" to my kids. Thanks Macklemore.
Was creating a new document in Illustrator and was happy that typing 6*12 in the width field turned into 72.
The “7 minute workout” timer.
7-min.com Ask a programmer to review 10 lines of code, he'll find 10 issues. Ask him to do 500 lines and he'll say it looks good.
I really like the word “grommet”.
Just taught my 5 yr old: "bowh bowh. Chick. Chicka-chick-ahhhh." Heh.
I shall revel in the small victories.
When you name your HTML classes and IDs, do you describe what it is (content) or describe what it does (function)?
Nothing quite like hopping into bed and realizing the cat threw up in it.
I just couldn’t be productive on this last trip. Now need to catch up with the deluge of emails.
If you don’t take the road you’re meant to travel, life will kick your ass until you either get with the program, or die from the beating.
Back in Ottawa. I missed you.
Drupal devs are a passionate bunch. I'm looking forward to Drupalcon next week.
I think that Polish vodka sneaks up on you. “Surprise, you’re drunk.”
When you have a scab and part of it is hanging off but you can’t pull it off without it ripping the rest of the scab off. Yeah, that.
Phew! Book's done. Should be hitting shelves June 22nd.

One of those rare times when I read an entire book in a day. Read
amazon.com/gp/product/158… and found it quite insightful.
Currently reading: Lean Analytics; Leadership Jazz; and Attached.
Unusually, I’m reading books. Even more unusually, I’m reading three of them concurrently. I might have a focus problem.
Read the book, Drive, and noticed how many of the ideas (autonomy, FedEx days) are implemented at Shopify.
Starting today off on the wrong foot. Going back to bed. Will try to get up on the right side of the bed next time.
Watched Les Miserables on the flight over. Well, I watched it on someone else’s screen and just read the subtitles to follow along.
That awkward place between being too tired to do anything and too awake to sleep.
They have Nortel Networks phones here in the hotel. Kinda sad. Poor Nortel.
At the airport. Ottawa to Montreal to Munich to Poznan. It's going to be a long trip.
Started consulting with a professional coach. Goal: I'm working to be more effective as a leader.

I’m going to Poznan, Poland this weekend. Anything in particular I should check out?
Shopify’s Montreal office is now open. Sweet.
Loving a couple of the Sweet Nothing remixes. Diplo and Dirtyloud, specifically. Tiesto remix is decent, too.
One of those nights where the frustration just builds. *ommmm*
I love salted caramel. Salted from the tears of my enemies!

As a product manager, I cringe from the comments on the Fireworks announcement
blogs.adobe.com/fireworks/2013… As a Fireworks user, WTF MF.
