One of the items on my 101 things to do list is to “bake at least one thing per month for 12 months in a row, without baking the same thing two months in a row”. I’ve been working diligently to get this one done and have been doing quite well since I decided to […]
How, exactly, is it February? It seems like just yesterday I was finishing up my lovely restful Christmas holidays and *poof* it’s February! This means, of course, that we are 1 full month into the new year and it seems like an excellent time to check in on those goals that I set for 2013, […]
It just occurred to me that in all of my birthday festivities, I forgot to have any birthday cake! Birthday beer, birthday shots, birthday food, more birthday beer – all of these things were covered, but somehow cake did not make it into the mix. But I figure +/- a week is within the period […]
Here is a quick summary of my blog and Twitter stats for 2012 ((To see previous years’ nerd stats postings, click the year in the table.)): 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 % change from 2011 Blog postings: 423 357 344 380 201 -47% Tweets: 2,227 1,815 2302 3,625 875 ((note to self: You started Tweeting […]
It’s 2013 in just over 24 hours, so I figured why not set up 13 goals for the new year? Lose the 15 lbs that I gained since starting my MBA. Seriously. I have clothes that I can’t fit into and it’s not good for my health to be carrying around this extra weight, so […]
Just one day left in the calendar year, so it’s time to check in on how I did on my 2012 goals. (Note to self: I really should check in on my goals list before day 365 ((I nearly wrote day 364, but then I remembered that this year was a leap year!)), so that I […]
So, for some reason I thought it was a good idea to go to one of the tallest buildings in the world on an extremely windy day and walk around the outside of it with only a couple of ropes keeping me from falling to my death 1,168 ft below. It’s called the CN Tower […]
Is this thing on? Apparently I decided to go from my month of blogging all the damn time to complete radio silence. We are going into the home stretch of the core part of the MBA program ((Where by “core” they mean “insanely impossibly insanely impossible workload”.)), so all my waking hours have been spent […]
Where in this case, the “it” is me! Item #81 on my 101 list is: participate in five research projects (as a research subject, not a researcher) and I recently heard about a very cool research project called the BC Generations Project that I’m eligible to participate in. From their website: “With five regional study teams and […]
Along with forgetting to exercise every day after I set a goal of exercising every day, I’ve been abyssmal at my 101 things to do in 1001 days goal of: bake at least one thing per month for 12 months in a row, without baking the same thing two months in a row It was […]
