Sorry for all my friends, connections, enemies and business partners.

Moving to London was more like an accident than a planned project: opportunities arose and i seized them. As a result, things broke (like when you dist-upgrade your Linux) -- projects, processes, connections, deadlines, etc. i hope most of them could be fixed, and most of those which cannot don't worth the trouble. if you think i treated you badly read my excuses in this post and drop me a mail. Yes, i was not really reading email either, but i'll try now.

First of all i came for a tourist trip and found a life (read previous post), so i didn't plan too many things beforehand. Secondly, i had to deal with immigration stuff like signing a contract, finding an address, buying a phone, opening a bank account, etc. Thirdly, i bought a new computer which is always a rift in the continuity of one's communications. Fourthly, that computer got stolen, so i had to buy another one and start over again with the migration. Fifthly, i didn't have my own internet connection, so i was either using open networks or the company line. Sixthly, i started to work 8 hours a day, which i never done before, and which took away all my energy and my time. Sevently, after those 8 hours at the office the last thing i desired in the evenings was to sit in front of the computer for more 3 hours doing communication work.

Eightly, i didn't want to write to everybody individually all the commonplaces, but write some blog posts explaining the essentials, and then write to each person singularly just about the things that are singular to her/him. Ninethly, my blog engine needed updating, and the new version that i developed back then didn't compile on my new system, so i had to upgrade and downgrade software and debug a lot, etc. i felt a lacked the medium to communicate before i fixed this fucking blog. Tenthly, i had only my phone to take pictures, and the Bluetooth support was broken on my latest install, so i had to spend half a day fixing it.

But don't worry -- i've cut myself through all the these barriers just to get back to you! :)
