I’m going to disagree with this study. With emphasis.
There’s a study out that basicly says coffee doesn’t do much for regular drinkers of the stuff. Now, granted I don’t consider myself a regular–meaning daily–coffee drinker by any means–I get my caffeine from other sources if I need it, but I’m going to just kind of give this report … Read the rest

Who controls your money? The advertisers, or you?
This blog post by Xup brings up an interesting point on the matter of advertising, product placements, and such. A perhaps odd thing for me to be writing about, considering the Google ads present on my blog, but I think it explains my take on advertising in general and why, … Read the rest

And back to school I go. Or, rather, I try to.
I mentioned a few days ago I was looking into options that don’t include me spending the foreseeable future on ODSP. One of those options, which as I expected didn’t pan out, was a conversation had between the employment assistance service I’m going through and Online Support, the only … Read the rest

My musical inclination’s temporary vacation.
Growing up, I always had a sort of obsession, if you will, with various types of music–mostly listening, but later on, playing. It started with the piano, and as I got out of highschool and finished college, it started graduating more towards the guitar–I blame my uncle, who could probably … Read the rest

Sometimes, family outings are awesomeness.
I hadn’t planned to do a whole lot yesterday, with the exception of posting the very little info I managed to get my hands on regarding Ontario’s, shall we say, ripping off of an entire class of tax payer. But, as often tends to happen, plans came up and told … Read the rest

Ontario’s generous provincial government strikes again.
The budget for 2010 came out on thursday. And, expecting to see a slight improvement in areas that actually matter, I read things over as they came in–because, you know, I’m like that. Sure enough, slight was probably the best way to describe the improvements. Very slight, in some cases. … Read the rest

Earth hour cancelled on account of hockey.
In just less than 2 hours, we’ll be encouraged to turn our lights and probably anything else electrical off to conserve energy and save the environment. Because, you know, the whole global warming thing hasn’t already been kicked about a hundred times in the gonads. In this apartment, however, the … Read the rest

Best. Week. Ever.
Some of you already know Jessica was up here for the week, having escaped back to Rochester this past Sunday. Mostly, we had her up here because we could, but a small part of it had to do with the fact it was the week of St. Patrick’s day. Naturally … Read the rest

A weekend well spent, I dare say.
Things have a nasty little habbit of happening here on 30 seconds’ notice. That kind of happened on Friday. Mom was in a fair bit of pain, and ended up going to Ottawa to get herself checked out Friday morning. There’s speculation that it may or may not be something … Read the rest

That didn’t take long. My sleep schedule goes officially sideways. Again.
Not for the first time, I ended up adopting a shift-worker’s routine. Specificly, a night-shift. By 8:00 this morning, I was contemplating sleep. By about 2:30, I was contemplating not being. And yet, since the end of November I was doing very well at, well, not doing that–largely because I … Read the rest
