  • Random Photo-y Goodness

    As I was looking at my photos yesterday, I realized that I had a bunch of screenshots and photos that I’ve been meaning to blog but never got around to. So today’s blog posting shall be a bunch of photo-y goodness. Some of said images are of hilarious names that people give to their wireless […]

  • A Power Outage and the International Day of Awesomeness

    So I was sitting here eating my dinner, catching up on the emails I’d missed as I’d been out of the office all afternoon at a meeting, listening to the Canucks pre-game show on the radio and thinking about what I was going to blog tonight – when the power went out. At first, I […]

  • I Freaking Love the Internet

    Tonight I was chatting with my sister. She lives 4000 km away, but I was able to chat with her like we were in the same room. Anytime I want to know what’s going on in the world, or how to get somewhere, or how to I cook a new dish, or to find a […]

  • How Did You Celebrate World Maths Day?

    Me, doing the gang sign for “pi,” in honour of World Maths Day. You did know that today was World Maths Day, right? I knew about this important occasion because I downloaded the Nerdidays Calendar from Dr. Dan’s website. Because days like World Maths Day are just too important to miss! So, what did you […]

  • I Snooze, I Lose

    So I’ve been meaning since forever ago to write a blog posting about the Sleep Cycle iPhone app. It’s a free app ((and you know how I feel about free stuff)) that tracks your sleeping patterns ((by using your iPhone’s accelerometer to sense your movements as you sleep)) and then works as an alarm to […]

  • Blog, blog, Wanderlust baby!

    Oh yes, today’s blog posting title is homage to yesterday’s blog posting title. It’s true, I really did that. Now, “what the hell are you talking about, Beth?” is probably what you are thinking right now. What I am talking about, gentle readers, is the new blog of one Dr. Dan, who you know as […]

  • Boo DHL, Yay Kalev!

    Now, I’m sure I’m not the first person to say this and I won’t be the last, but holy crap DHL Express is the crappiest delivery company ever. You see, Kalev bought me some birthday presents from ThinkGeek and had them shipped to me.  Or at least, he tried to have them shipped to me. […]

  • Apparently It’s Delurking Day

    I have completely stolen this from Sarah’s blog.  Apparently today is National Delurking Day ((not sure which nation, truth be told)), so all y’all who read my blog but don’t usually comment are legally required to comment today, lest this cartoon character flash you. As is my understanding of the rules of National Delurking Day.

  • Happy 11-1-11!

    It’s like 1-1-11, but with 2025% ((Updated 2:52 p.m.: for the record, that was a typo. I’m really not that bad at math, says the college statistics instructor)) more ones. Image Credit: Posted by Cath Walker on Flickr.
