A sampler of things I’ll be posting about after I finish breaking the blog.
This has been sitting in my saved items folder since, uh, well, October. Yeah, that’s how busy I’ve been. There’s more, including some quite mock-worthy links, but we start with this.

The obligatory post… from the iPhone.
I am about to break my own rule. But before I do that, it has to be said that this week, with no exceptions, was a box of awesome, packed in epic, with a win topping. Jessica came by for the week, as she’s known to do. We had several … Read the rest

I used to be this naive.
Then, I got me an education real fast. From today’s random glance at search stats: Jul 20 9:05pm: will odsp try to employ me or just pay me Don’t we all wish. Sadly, neither ODSP or the CNIB will do much for employment up here–despite the insistence by some folks … Read the rest
