How to never forget a birthday again

I love postcards. They are little burst of joy and humanity in the midst of automated email campaigns and invoices that flood your inbox even (sometimes…

Three decades on

As of last Friday, I kissed my 20s behind and turned 30. I also completed my first year at Google.

2010 was an interesting year, and seems to mark the end a long run-on sentence with a big, smudgy period:

Birthday Blues.

Birthday’s and birthday celebrations are a nightmare IMO and cause severe annual anxiety.

Yep, I resent the pressure and…
