I am lazy, and lazy is me.
There is absolutely nothing planned for the day, except to just sit around, watch a little TV, and just… generally do nothing. I approve of this. After doing fifty thousand things through the course of the last week or so, and still having fifty thousand more to do this coming … Read the rest

Holy hell.
This is the first time I’ve actually been able to sit down since, well, this morning. I mean, there was the span of like… 10 minutes wherein email got checked, people got replied to, and pixies got kinda sorta somewhat teased, but actually sitting down, not since before I did … Read the rest

Having that much fun should not be allowed.
After much shuffling of schedules, we managed to kill pretty much the entire day in Ottawa, and for once, it wasn’t the type of killing a day that makes you want to just go home, flake out, and try to forget that you actually left the house to be bored … Read the rest

So I relented…
And against what is obviously my better judgement, I’ve broken down and finally installed Skype. I have no clue why, other than the fact certain individuals, who shall remain nameless (I’m talking about you, miss L), have been insisting upon my downloading it. I can’t guarantee it’ll actually get used, … Read the rest

Well now, if that’s not motivation to move to Ottawa…
A guy I haven’t actually talked to in, well, ages, since my time at Algonquin College, just IMed me with a very… tempting offer. One that might almost be worth the hour and a half trip from here to Ottawa once a week. Apparently, he’s managed to hook up with … Read the rest

In China, car drives you.
Or tries to, anyway. A Chinese company demoed a driverless car that topped out at 37 MPH without leaving the road, or hitting anything. Small progress, but ’tis still progress. Some people may not think all too highly of a driverless car, but hey, as long as it knows where … Read the rest

If my relatives had blogs…
I think, for the most part, I would be quite… frightened. Although, I’ve given some thought to twisting my cousin and her husband’s arm to get themselves one… those two would, at the least, be extremely amusing to read. And I’ve got the space for it… hmmm. *ponders* But, anywho. … Read the rest

Yes, I’m a geek.
So it probably shouldn’t surprise you that I’ve got the TV set on the news channel in expectation of the shuttle’s launch this morning in 9 minutes from the time of this post. I dunno, I think I blame Star Trek for the fact I have an interest, even if … Read the rest

I got free food, and such!
And it only meant going to the clinnic so certain people could get stuff looked at, and spending 2 hours in a grocery store. But it was free! And food! Yeah, I’m easily excited… big freakin’ deal. It’s out of the house, anyway. And away from the insanity contained withint. … Read the rest

The linux of beer is upon us!
Because open source isn’t restricted to *just* software, this probably shouldn’t surprise you. Anyone who’s ever used an application similar to… well, just about anything that runs on the linux operating system for one, a la wordpress, movable type, and all that, is very familiar with the concept of open … Read the rest
