In honor of your birthday, Dr. Dan, I got up early to do some math problems and after work I’m meeting up with some Dr’s for dinner and drinks and discussions about epidemiology. Because it seems like the kind of thing that you would do. Also, please take note of what time this “happy birthday” blog […]
I was reminded ((Where by “reminded” I mean that I noticed it when I was looking at an old blog posting.)) recently that I once upon a time gave a bunch of people official titles on my blog. There is Sarah, my Resident Historian and Chief Political Correspondent; Dr. Dan, my Official Statistician & Tattoo Consultant; Kalev, […]
Today I take a break from blogging about my trip to Oregon to ask a favour. My friend Dan is having surgery to repair a hiatal hernia. He’s going to be laid up for a few days/weeks recovering and requires entertainment for said laying around to recove. So, if you have a minute, why not […]
I’ve recently become addicted to a new podcast called The S&M Rants. Get your mind out of the gutter! S&M stands for Shane & Monica, the hosts of this show where they, well, rant. They rant about weird things they find on the Internet. They rant about news stories that are just so insane they […]
OK, so after that wee diversion on the whole blogivesary thing, I’m back to blogging about all the crap I meant to blog about from my trip! The National Art Gallery One of the things I like about going to Ottawa (in addition to seeing Sarah and Dave, of course), is that there are tonnes […]
I’m taking a page out of the Dr. Dan book of blogging by titling this blog posting about my race using the best sign that I saw along the route. In addition to the sign that said, “Worst. Parade. Ever.” my favourite signs that I saw along the half marathon route today included: Your legs […]
Time flies when you are having fun! Seems like I just got to Ontario and now I’m at the airport, waiting for my flight home! Since I last blogged, I: had breakfast, lunch ((in beer & onion rings form)), and dinner with Kalev had breakfast with my mom, Aunt Eileen & my sister had lunch […]
Since clearly I’m way too busy to actually write all those blog postings I said I was going to write, here’s an even shorter summary of what I’ve been doing since my last summary: Monday was a (mercifully) low key day, after all the crazy busy-ness of the first several days of my trip. I […]
Hey, remember when I said that I was planning to do a much better job of blogging this trip than I did of blogging my last trip. Apparently, I was full of crap. So, let’s see if I can do a quick summary of all the awesome things I’ve been doing instead of blogging. Let’s […]
Tonight, I hop on a 737 at 11 pm and will be whisked 4,000 km to the east, arriving in Ottawa at 8 am tomorrow. I originally planned to take this trip almost a year ago when my Granny’s side of the family announced plans to have a family reunion in Eastern Ontario. A few […]
