Project method choices

July 1st, 2009
by Croga

It’s a strange thing when the subproject you’re working on would ideally require a different project method from the overall project. Not only is it difficult to convince the overall project management but there’s also the challenge of getting the other subprojects lined up.

All good assignments must come to an end….

March 24th, 2009
by Croga

As my work at Het CAK is being taken over by an internal employee, my assignment as Systems Architect will end in about a month. It’s been approximately half a year and I have learned a lot and hopefully helped a bit as well. Read the rest of this entry »

My next car?

February 23rd, 2009
by Croga

This morning I was surprised by a message from our company’s leasecar department saying they were negotiating a new lease deal with Honda for the Insight hybrid car. As I’ve been driving a Toyota Prius for about a year now and will be ordering my new company car in about a year this sounded quite promising. And so the search for more information began….

Going Live!

December 23rd, 2008
by Croga

Yeah yeah… I know… it won’t last ;) I just decided it was time to get my blog out onto my main domain page. So here it is! Accessible now through http://www.croga.com directly instead of useing the “Security through obscurity” hidden away URL.

Somehow I’ve still got hopes that I can post a bit more regularly… I’ll do my best.

Back to work!

December 17th, 2008
by Croga

Even though the tests still continue and a cause for the fatigue hasn’t been found yet, I have gone back to work. The doctor said last week that there is no physical reason to stay at home and I say that there is a mental reason to get back to work (as otherwise I’ll go even more mad then I already am). So here I am again: Back to writing a systems architecture for the CAK. Read the rest of this entry »

Good times, Bad times

November 11th, 2008
by Croga

Yesterday I talked to my doctor. It can take up to another 3 weeks for the 24-hour bloodpressure test to get done as the machine broke down….

I’m having good days and bad days. Today is one of the best since ages, not really feeling all that tired and I’m getting a lot of stuff done for the WoW guild that needed to be sorted for a long time already. Last sunday, the day after Linda’s birthday party, was the worst since ages. I think I must have slept about 18 hours that day.

All in all I wanna go back to work. I think I’ll take a trip to The Hague and/or Amsterdam early next week to see how the driving affects me. I hope I can get back to 2 days a week or so, maybe do some stuff from home. We’ll see what happens.

WTF?

October 29th, 2008
by Croga

It’s sickyear for me apparently….
Starting off with the palsy I thought that was enough for a while (like a couple of years or so). My body thinks differently. Since about two weeks I can’t really do anything without getting some sleep afterwards. I wake up in the morning with a heartbeat of about 100. I take a shower, call my boss to explain why I won’t be back any time soon, and have to sleep for about 2 hours because I’m exhausted. Read the rest of this entry »

For about a year now I have been a member of the Nerds in Denial, a World of Warcraft guild on the Turalyon server. Yesterday the fastest progressing guild on the server got disbanded…..

New assignment!

August 7th, 2008
by Croga

Yay for me, I’ve got a new assignment! It’s been way too long since I’ve done something useful.
The Amsterdam Power Exchange (auctioneer for surplus power supply and demand) is changing the way they do business with Norway. The implementation of this new way of doing business will be my responsibility (well, the IT side of it at least).
