First of all, I have to admit, my friends think I’m screwed.
I seriously had to log in here and check the poll when it closed (err, 30 mins after). Yes, there’s far more important things in life than checking your blog, but this afterall, is my 10 year bloggoversary contest!!!
I am currently at a [...]

Hello, My Name is Stupid.

A few days ago, Workspace, a shared work environment in Gastown, got broken in to. Six laptops were stolen. One of them had a plug-in for Flickr which uploads photos taken from the machine. I guess one of the criminals (or someone who purchased the stolen machine) decided to have fun with [...]

Sorry folks, I was stricken with a migraine at about noon yesterday, and wasn’t able to get the vote up. It’ll go up sometime today…
Have a great Monday, everyone.

Friday Silliness (err, idiocy?)

Um. No comment?
TGIF, everyone! This one couldn’t have come quick enough… It’s been a crazy week for me.
Want to hear something strange? I know I have a ton of things that I have committed to this weekend, but I can’t remember any of them at the moment. I forgot to write everything [...]

Getting schooled! …Literally!

I’ve finally done it! I’ve signed up for my 10 week photography course, and it starts tonight! I was going to go through Langara, but after some research, I found a workshop-based course that is right near my office (5 blocks away) that specifically deals with DSLR cameras over 10 weeks, for much [...]

Friiiiday Silliness!! :)

Wheu! It was a busy day at work, which, after a late start due to my alarm clock not being set properly last night, had me rushing around all day. So, this Friday Silliness entry is a bit late!

I couldn’t stop laughing at this crazy pie chart I found this week. I’m [...]

Not a banner week…

I haven’t been the easiest friend to be around this week, and I know this. People outside my inner circle wouldn’t have any idea, but I’ve been in a state of frustration, sadness, and distress over the past several days — Questioning everything, and getting no answers.
I know that I, and I alone, worked [...]

This Chick is done with ‘online dating’

I’m done. Online dating, especially with the free sites, is not for me.
I’ve got one more date with someone I’ve been corresponding with for a while now, but otherwise, I’m removing my profile from all dating sites. That forum was once a place I had fun with, drawing from a dating pool of [...]
