  • You Heard It Here Last

    I’ve never claimed to be one to break any news.  In fact, I’ve been known to say of this blog: “you heard it here last.”  For as much as I like to blog something every day ((and have done so for the last 90 days and counting, btw!)), I’m not exactly timely with writing about […]

  • Hello book, 2001 called, they want their floppy disk back

    I was at Office Depot the other day and came across this (below… I’m writing this on my phone and the WordPress app doesn’t seem to let you put photos in the middle of a posting – just puts it at the bottom). It’s in one of those fill-in-the-blank legal contract kits ((incidentally, it was […]

  • Bluetooth Headset, Take 5

    I’m starting to think that the universe does not want me to have a bluetooth headset. First, there was the bluetooth headset I bought that I proceeded to leave in the pocket of my skirt when I did laundry.  Second, there was a bluetooth head that I bought but returned because it sucked ((which I […]

  • The Internets! It’s ALIVE!

    The internets gods have finally deemed me worthy enough to have my very own internets connection in my very own home.  And what a great night for that to happen.  Canada – and Canadian women in particular – kicked some ass at the Olympics tonight and I got to watch it all via the Internet […]

  • Still Internet-less

    So this will be yet another micro blog posting as I am still without Internet connectivity and I’m pecking this blog posting out on my iPhone. The Telus guy was supposed to hook me up today but he said that the people at the office hooked me up to the wrong doohickey and he asked […]

  • Job Posting: Coordinator, Online Volunteer Engagement

    Just got this email from an organization that I used to work for with a request to pass it along to anyone would might be interested.  So I thought I’d share it with all y’all in case anyone is looking for a new job: Are you a people person? Are you a ‘systems thinker’ with […]

  • The Internets Knows Everything

    So the other day I was complaining on the Twitter about how Outlook doesn’t remind you if you forget to attach the document you intended to attach to an email the way Gmail does. (I have to use Outlook at work.  Not of my own free will.)  And since my tweets automatically post to my […]

  • My Moving “To Do” List

    So here’s the “to do” list I came up with off the top of my head for all the things I need to do for my move: Can you think of anything I’ve overlooked?

  • Steve Jobs, Why Have You Forsaken Me?

    For Christmas, my friend Clayton got me an iTunes gift card. He did so specifically because he knows I’m too cheap to buy any paid apps for my iPhone, but he knew I’d appreciate being able to get my hands on some sweet, sweet iPhone apps. I redeemed my card to my account and then […]

  • Do You Get This?

    OK, before I tell you what I’m all excited about here, have a look at this picture of a license plate and tell me if you get why I saw it and thought, “I MUST PHOTOGRAPH THIS!!” ((for the record, we were safely stopped at a red light when I took the pic)): When I […]
