I moved into my new cube in the San Jose office yesterday. Actually got a little real work done as well. It will take a while to get fully settled. I cleverly left behind the little server we're using for internal trials, to minimize the disruption that would have been caused by taking it down and changing its IP address. So naturally, it's now on a network segment that can't be reached from the new office. :P

The Pegasus Awards - 2010 Brainstorming Poll results are up on the web -- I'm listed in the "Best Songwriter" category, and have two songs -- "Quiet Victories" and "The River" -- mentioned under "Best Song". I don't recall sending in a brainstorming entry this year, so don't blame me. I'm not complaining.

A few more links up there under the cut.

Congratulations on the nominations! I think everyone identifies with "Quiet Victories" to some degree, but it's "The River" that turns me into a teary-eyed puddle of goo every time.

Um... wow! Thanks!

I've always figured that QV displaced The River as my best song, but clearly there's room for some disagreement there.

No reason they can't stand side by side as equals. QV says things that need saying about the stuff that lurks in the shadows, and it casts a gentle spotlight on those who deserve to be recognized for what they've been through and rarely get (or expect) acknowledgment. It's an important song, a valuable song.

"The River", though... Is. Just. Perfect. One of these lifetimes, I want *that*.
