Why they should never let me near Ottawa. But they did.
Every time I come to Ottawa, whether it’s to live or visit, I always have this wicked huge list of things to do. And almost always, within the first week or two, I end up making a sizeable dent in that list. Which is exactly why it is they should … Read the rest

Anyone wanna guess what this is?
No? Okay fine. This would be, for the first time in a little bit over a month, my attempted reemergence into the realm of this whole blogging thing. This may or may not include yet more mockery, and that thinggy I’m supposed to do about what you guys were reading … Read the rest

The halfway update thinggy from Rochester.
Hey, it only took me 4 days–considering my previous record, that’s not bad. The trip itself went amazingly well. So did all the 80 million things I had to get done before I fled the country–with the exception of the post office, but that entry I’ll save for when I … Read the rest

It’s the pre-departure oh my God drive me crazy writeoff monday mental checklist.
Try saying that 3 times fast. While you do that, I’ll be busy very quickly disposing of a departure Monday. This is more of a “God please don’t let me forget something” exercise primarily for me, but if you’re curious just how dead my Monday is, here’s a hint. I … Read the rest

The-jdh.com turns 5, and my incitefulness takes a walk.

Putting the holy busy back into holiday. Or something.
the last couple days have been, well, oh my god busy in the extreme. Hence the lack of anything vaguely resembling a post in that time. Yeah, that includes hockey posts–but oh well. In really quick, list format. because I’ve only got a couple minutes and then it’s off to … Read the rest

I’m beginning to post a lot like Christmas.
It being that time of year again, and me being insanely busy–as I very usually am when this time of year shows up, there hasn’t been a whole lot in the way of actual content up here that wasn’t something vaguely resembling mockery. Or something thrown at me from relatives … Read the rest

My creditcard issuer has creditcard issues.
I have the good fortune, or not–depending on your perspective, to be in posession of a creditcard. Up until last week, the card worked pretty well flawlessly for anything from ordering pizza to paying the occasional bill online, in the event I’m too damn inpatient and/or lazy to bother with … Read the rest

This debate hurts my head.
And, surprise surprise, it reminds me why it is I wouldn’t lose too much sleep over not getting out to vote next week. In list format, because I’m lazy. Andrew Hayden: spending most of the debate picking at the other candidates, and interjecting his 0.5 cents where it’s not welcome–like, … Read the rest
