Finally got the Wordpress iPhone app…. Let’s see if it allows me to post If you can read this it worked!

It’s one of those days again….. Not one of those where everything seems to go wrong but quite the other way around. Read the rest of this entry »

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.

Somehow I thought it would take months of utter boredom before I’d get my next assignment but here we are…. Gasunie Groningen….. Read the rest of this entry »

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 »

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….

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.

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 »

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.

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 »
