Dear diary….
Hey. In case you are one of the two or three people who read this blog and yet don’t know me, last week I successfully applied for the permanent researcher position at CBC. I’ve been doing that job since September in a contract role, and I’d been backfilling it on a pretty regular basis since […]
Dropped family off at the airport, picked up a package from Greyhound, got groceries, walk in the park, shopped downtown, then out to the box stores for a new doormat and pet supplies.
It’s not a financial investment, it limits your options, it’s time-consuming, and it’s awesome.
Hallowe’en Data Breakdown. I’m liking Daytum more and more. A year ago, we were nervous about Hallowe’en coming because we hadn’t yet taken possession of our house and we had no idea what our soon-to-be-new neighbourhood, located near a high school, was like. This year, we were excited at the prospect of handing out candy […]
A couple of weeks back, when fall was still warm rather than frigid and wet, I was able to go out to the Hadih House in Prince George to gather some tape on canning sessions they were holding there. The day before they had done salmon and the next day they were doing moose, but […]
In a world where even the smallest action is chronicled by a Tweet or Facebook status update, Daytum is the logical next step. For the uninitiated (and this will be pretty much everyone), the website is the creation of a guy by the name of Nicholas Feltron, who in 2005 sent out what he called […]
BC’s largest lumber company is now on Twitter. Currently, the account is following the premier, the leader of the opposition, the deputy premier, two of the Vancouver Sun’s more storied writers, and me. Interesting choice.
I don’t have a boat, but if I did I would get all my supplies from Marine Plus. Here’s why. One of our mic stands at CFUR broke. Well, it didn’t break, but the bolt holding it onto the desk did. Seems fairly straightforward to replace, but as it turns out, it was pretty tough. […]
1. Shaking people’s hands as I meet and greet new students 2. Having lunch with someone who was recently sick 3. High-intensity bike-riding in a high-pollution zone 4. Staying up late to do home renovations 5. Staying up late to dance 6. Being exposed to fine particulate as a result of home renovations 7. Poor […]
Busy day today. After staying up until 2 am grouting our tiles (so glad we had extra wood to do the halls, instead of full tile as initially planned), got up this morning for a 9 am meet and greet with the new cast of Health on the Hill. This is program on CFUR radio […]
I’m still going through photos from our southern Alberta trip. It was great for photographs, but it makes sorting them tough.
Neighbour’s Kid: Hello! Me: Hi. Neighbour’s Kid: How was your day? Me: Fine. How was yours? Neighbour’s Kid: OK. Neighbour’s Kid: It would have been better if I didn’t have to go to school. Me: Yeah, mine would have been better if I didn’t have to go to work.
performing at UNBC for back-to-school. It was a cool night, and turn-out was less than it could have been, but they put on a good show. Highlight was probably when a fire alarm was set off and the beer garden had to be emptied out. As the lead singer said: “Let’s see how long it […]
