Not hiding, just creating….

August 20, 2007

If the lack of posts hasn’t made it quite clear, I’m in the middle of a huge project and wrapping up development on it as we speak. This means different things for different people, but for Brianna it means being a grouchy hermit who treats all external stimulus as a distraction. I do not answer phone calls, I respond to emails only because I have scheduled in time for it for support requests. I don’t socialize. I’m really good at multi-tasking until it comes to a big project, and then all my focus MUST go in that direction, or else I end up mired in the scattered bits and pieces of my fragmented brain, sucking me down like quicksand. A terrible metaphor, but rather illustrative of my point – when I’m working on big stuff, it sucks up my whole brain. It’s been good, though, I needed this project – my first big one in two years, since I went to school and Mom got sick and everything after. I needed it to re-strengthen my discipline, I needed it for my confidence, and I needed it for healing.

And it’s been super fun, and I can’t wait to launch it. So if you’re wondering where I am, I’m in front of my computer with my headphones on.
