Ok, so I'm not a globe-trotter :) Travelling just takes too much out of me, coming and going. But it was an amazing trip. So freaking packed. I barely had time to breathe the second week, with the retreat and DrupalCon. I have so much to say and so little energy to say it with right now. Our two huge projects with CivicActions are launching this month. And I just booked my GRE exam for October 30th. This month is going to be insaaaaane.

I posted the few photos I actually took in Barcelona, and here are many more from various coworkers.

It's so hard to see myself slipping away from my online life right now, but I don't want to let it get to me. I miss you all and I'm not going anywhere far, just trying to take care of the big stuff :)

You know you're in the right place when you fire off your an email asking if they have a blogging policy, and the response starts with a "Well, I've copied our blogging evangelist on this..."

I'm now working on a contract for CivicActions, an amazing network of Drupallers offering web services to progressive, political, and grassroots efforts.  They had the immediate need for a themer for a project and were out hunting, and I just happened to update my eLance profile the other night with the word "Drupal" liberally sprinkled throughout.  Not to mention getting my green card the day before so I can legally work.  Serendipity indeed.  My sister often jokes that I have a golden horseshoe up my ass, but I'm a firm believer in making one's own luck and aligning things to fall into place with your passion.

Apparently this fun niche that I've fallen into of translating from graphic design -> CMS theme is something needed right now.  More later, but they seem like an amazing bunch working in a great business structure.
