  • Doing All The Things!

    So apparently I’ve decided to do all the things, which means that I have eleventy billion things to blog about and no time in which to write said blog posting ((As a microcosm of my doing all the things, while writing this blog posting, I’m also doing laundry, doing dishes, baking cherry squares for the […]

  • Look at me! I’m A Talking Head

    A colleague of mine was making a series of videos ((I posted this on Twitter the other day, but I figured I’d post it here so that I’ll be able to find it again when I want to. Twitter is like a black hole that all my various witty remarks disappear into, never to be […]

  • Hooray for Composting

    I was sure that I’d posted this blog posting back in mid-January, but I just discovered it sitting in my “Drafts” folder, so apparently I did not. At any rate, I’m posting it now! As of January 1st, it has been illegal to send any organic waste to the landfill in Metro Vancouver ((“Metro Vancouver” […]

  • My Weekend

    Spent the weekend on the Island, as my friend Rachel invited me to give a guest lecture on stats in her research methods class ((I gave this same type of lecture 4 years ago, but haven’t been back to do it since then as I got busy with that whole MBA thing, so I couldn’t […]

Case in point, I only blogged twice in the entire month of […]

  • Twelve Months of NTBTWK

    As I’m doing a bunch of year-end type postings, I figured I’d do the “twelve months” one where you post the first line of the first blog posting of each month of the year (and the name of the month is a link to the full posting). But I like to post the first *two* […]

  • Can’t Stop Learning

    As previously mentioned, I recently started taking some hockey lessons, because apparently 2 years of MBA school on the weekend got me addicted to learning stuff on Saturday mornings. The lessons are going great – the coach is excellent at breaking skills down into easy-to-understand parts and because we only have 5 people in the […]

The Procurement Department is on the look out for a cool piece of furniture inside which the litter box can be hidden, but have not yet found the right item. Expenses The primary operating […]

  • Sloth Beth Strikes Again

    And while I’m re-purposing old photos here on ye ole blog, I think it’s time to bring back this one: Sloth Beth! I have been such a sloth of late. I started the year off well – I went from the running study right into training for the Hollywood Half Marathon right into the BMO […]
