The Internet’s leading authority on radicalized geese
Been doing some field work this week, so my team and I have been working hard at collecting lots of data and entering it into giant spreadsheets. This has involved very long days of staring at a computer screen – like, longer than my usual 8 hour day of staring at a computer screen and […] →Read more
Because I am nothing if not stubborn, and a person who never knows when to quit, I’m going to give National Blog Posting Month a go again this year. Things are still fairly busy (what else is new?), so I’ve decided I’m going to blog about all the small things – those little things that […] →Read more
This year’s Halloween costume, being immortalized here on ye old blog: To put this photo in context, my gym had a costume contest: show up at the gym in your costume, take a photo, and post it on Instagram. Best photo wins a prize! Hence why I am holding a dumbbell in the photo – […] →Read more

Apparently all the things got together and decided that they should fall apart this year. You’ve already heard about my car’s clutch actuator and my kobo ((Incidentally, I did get a new kobo, but my new kobo needs a name)) and my toilet and my mouth and my cat’s mouth. In addition to those things, the following […] →Read more
Yesterday was the my third anniversary of working in my current job! It’s kind of hard to believe that it’s been three years, as I still think of it as my “new” job. And as much as I can sometimes be frustrated with the bureaucracy of working in a big organization (while, several big organizations, […] →Read more
Much like the Plumbing Edition of Stuff I Learned This Year, this is a lesson I’d have been happy not having learned. It all started on my drive home from work on Friday – I was slowing down for a red light on Stewardson Way and my car jerked (sort of like it would if […] →Read more
