Okay, so I really was intending to post a bit more. I seem to have got a bit distracted with a lot of forum maintenance though recently - damned thing’s practically a full time job!
On the positive side, I did it! Got to the bottom of my inbox and replied to all those emails that [...]

Yes I was. Honest, and a proper post, not just some half-hearted whinge about being tired. Actually I’ve got all sorts of crap I want to ramble on about at the moment, but not enough hours in the day.
The day started off bad, briefly improved for a while this morning when I was actually handed [...]

I’m all for nice automated things that save time and money…that’s if they are really automated…
Take my employers’ new system for booking meeting rooms. In the old days we used to have to phone the post room, who rather confusingly also dealt with meeting room bookings, amongst a host of other things. So, you’d phone [...]

I can’t believe it was really 13th April when I made my last post here…I’m sure it wasn’t that long! Anyhow, both Rachel and Bliss are now back, and normal service shall now be resumed.
So where have we been? Well we’ve not been anywhere, and are firmly of the opinion that it’s you, dear reader, [...]

For the past few weeks I’ve been very side-tracked by my health, managing my forum and trying to mount a takeover bid to rule the world or something like that, holding online meetings which with an average length of three hours have somewhat sapped what little physical strength I have, chilling out and reading, getting [...]

The topic of the week at one of my favourite web haunts, an online forum (a neat idea to get folks talking, and one Rachel’s considering borrowing for her forum), is whether the very detailed descriptions of the natural environment in a particular piece of literature is needed, whether it’s superfluous, or whether it’s just [...]

Okay, so “WTF has eBay got to do with the creative process?”, you’re wondering. Good question!
What did we do before eBay came along? I’m not just talking about buying complete tat, rubbish we don’t really need, because there are an abundance of “bricks and mortar” places where we can do that. Charity shops sell all [...]

My apologies for the recent absence of Rachel, but for now you’re stuck with me, Bliss, on account of Rachel’s brain having taken an unscheduled vacation. It’s a little difficult to tell the difference sometimes…
Anyhow, here I am, at long last ready to re-commence work on “Fallen Angel”, and what happens? A couple of gatecrashers [...]

The past week or so I’ve been doing not a lot of pretty much everything. Other problems with arms and hands and fingers not working properly have curtailed my typing, and I’ve been mainly reading. I haven’t touched any of my OU stuff since the other week when both assignments for both courses were due [...]

Yesterday I had a bit of a scare. For the past six months I’ve been on some pretty heavy duty painkillers. The pain I’m now getting in my upper spine isn’t responding to anything much, not even the morphine-like buprenorphine patches, but I have to say that the rest of my back’s responded well to [...]

Hi, and welcome to NeonBlue Dreams. I'm Rachel, and so is my alter-ego Bliss; I'm ambidextrous like that. If you count Fallen Angel and Celestia there's even more of me! Collectively we're web developers and sometime writers, when we're not doing the boring stuff that pays the bills full time. These are our assorted ramblings.
