Sometimes in life, you find an opportunity to make a difference in something you care about, and it feels like, even though you didn’t know it at the time, that the last few years have really just been practice, giving you the background, skills and ability to really help. And in a very few circumstances — once or twice in a lifetime if you’re lucky — the opportunity you get to make a difference is one that has a very large, even global impact. My new role with my new company feels like one of those times.

My six word summary - great people, great work, great company. It’s a great opportunity that I’m very excited about, even though it brings my solo practice to a standstill.

The job is great, because it deals mostly with things that I’m familiar with, but still offers great opportunities to learn new things. I get to work from home, and enjoy being able to control my enviornment. Sometimes I work better with music, sometimes I work better in silence. Either way, it benefits everyone.

As usual, I won’t discuss the company I am working for or divulge any detailed information, as I have not discussed this with my colleagues, but I can safely say that we do ground-breaking beautiful work, and I will be proud to be part of their successes.

A commonly-asked question: will there be changes to this blog and website?

Certainly - at a minimum, I have some updating to do and I’m getting started on that. I’m still sorting that out and also taking the opportunity to assess what directions I want to go with the blog. I’m guessing that I’ll focus to an even greater degree on tech topics and areas of personal interest. I might even take this opportunity to help The Mister start a (productive) blog.

How is my personal life? I have felt more loved in the last week that I have felt in a very long time, and I have really been enjoying life and all it has to offer.

I’d enjoy hearing from readers with their suggestions of how I might refocus the blog a bit - comment on this post or email me at geneva.fox@gmail.com.

You will now notice the new link at the top no longer says “gallery” but now says “facebook photos“.

Seeing as I am addicted to facebook, and usually use that for my latest images, I thought it would be best.

You can still see the old gallery here.

I wanted to say a quick thank you to Paddy for the donation of US$50 to my paypal account, it will really really help me!

Thanks Padster, you have always been a good mate!

Seeing as I am skint like flint, and the bills are piling up, I am flogging things on ebay.

(don’t forget that you can donate to me using the “buy me a beer” form as well).

I wanted to say thank you to studiovip.com for the paypal donation and buying me a few beers - it is VERY appreciated!

I have been approached by a media firm/agent who are in the process of securing contracts to put my story, as well as the support group/charity owlss.co.uk, in the media - television, newspapers and magazines.

I was also contacted again by channel 4 last night in regards to a health documentary that is being done about obesity surgery. I was initally contacted earlier this year, and it’s nice to see that it is coming to fruition.

It looks as if the coming weeks will be busy, and I will need to get a photo shoot booked as soon as possible.

If anyone would like to help proof-read my exclusivity contract, I would appreciate any advice.

It looks like I will have to start removing some of my personal details from the internet, my CV and the likes, as I don’t really want any nutters having my personal details.

In regards to work, I am in London for a meeting on Wednesday next week, so I may squeeze some networking in if I can. I will have some time to kill at lunchtime if anyone wants to grab a bite to eat!

Okay, you asked for it, so you got it.

You are probably seeing this on the new theme Salmon, and I hope that it pleases your eyeballs as much as it does mine.

If you are looking at the freshy03 theme, I am sorry, but that it currently under work - and the bloody ajax isn’t validating.

I have also updated my ABOUT and WISHLIST pages.

If you want anything else on here, or have some suggestions on ways to improve the site (ie subjects to discuss or me adding some blog videos), please let me know.

Added even more photos today - can you guess which albums?
