		<description>Hey Matt, just passing by to say hello! 
 
I&#039;ve read you went back to freelance, and I can totally understand your feelings about the whole thing. I mean, once you get so used to be your own boss and to manage how you deal with every aspect of your job, it always feels like you are losing something when moving into somebody elses business, no matter how amazing that business is and no matter how good the pay is. 
 
I am Italian, and I have been freelancing for ages in Naples, back where I was born. I live in London UK now, and I work in somebody&#039;s business. I am totally loving it because the people over here are amazing and I am also getting a lot of knowledge and bla bla... 
 
but it still does not feel as great as it did when I worked by myself! 
 
And you know what&#039;s funny? I stumbled on your website some months ago and I started to read it regularly because we are quite similar minded. And not just that! 
 
I am almost done with my blog/portfolio (yes, we also do the same job!) and I&#039;ll send you over the link so you can take a look. I mean, you just wait and see the pictures, you will be &#039;stoked&#039; :D 
 
I&#039;m glad you went back to freelance, it suits you much more! </description>

		<description>Yes please do up some Wordpress! I would love to have a new skin for my blog, and I can finally move on to newer material (for my posts) and actually have some place to store them! 
 
Congrats! Your wife is pretty, your baby is cute, everything&#039;s going good! Keep it rocking! </description>

		<description>I&#039;m so excited to see: 
a) Your redesign 
b)  Your free wordpress skins! Please consider doing some premium ones too, at 100 dollars or less.  If I had the money, I would hire you to do my site in a second, but having a premium theme available to buy in my price range I would jump at! </description>
