With all the lovely people on here, how is it that I can completely forget the site exists? Not good, I think though that the social media invasion has something to do with it... between the blog, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn one can get so lost in it all. At the end of the day I just find myself with limited time frown I really would love...

Man we are long overdue for a catch up. I keep threatening folks with a jam night so you'll be hearing from me about that at the very least.

SG just released a mobile version which works pretty nicely on the phone even though it's still in beta: point your iphone to http://m.suicidegirls.com

Happy Thanksgiving mate!

Hmm, it's strange just being freshly back on SG - kinda like having moved away from town for a few years. All your friends have moved on, and although you kinda would like to just step back in, you also realize that it was your choice to leave. Such is life I guess...

Anyhow, I feel that I'm approaching a career nexus once again. I've...

I'm reading you loud and clear, brother. Especially on the "people first" and being thankful.

After the 23rd of Sep, I'm starting the jam nights again. Come play with us!
madscience:
Wow, I didn't know there were still "people first" places around. They're a dying breed, as you're experiencing.

Ok ok, to suicidegirls and/or the fine benefactor of the relink. Thanks. Truth is I've been overwhelmed by social networking sites and a ridiculously busy life/career. Ok, I'm not going to complain. I know that many folks out there got hammered in the economic maelstrom over the past couple years. I'm grateful for everything and everyone in my life - you all rock!

...besides who...

Welcome back! You're part of a SG marketing campaign. They've been giving out free short-term memberships to old SG'ers to try to entice them back to the site (and to actually PAY for the site again) . . .

Back to another busy time, but lots of positives - going to another Canucks game this Thursday - row two... It's all work related of course, but it's better than boardrooms. Had tons of fun yesterday playing with all the neighborhood kids - they've so got it made. Bennet up on the corner is 6 and has his own jeep that I have to run...

If you haven't already seen it, watch "The Inconvenient Truth" Fucking brilliant!

sockpuppet:
Not yet. Thanks for the tip smile

(Actually, given recent developments, I will probably not be watching it any time soon. I don't go to the movies - never got the habit - and I heard on Monday that my current job ends in June. So I'm in a rather strange mood, and not inclined to spend money frown - at least not on anything my curious mind deems "frivolous".
Also, I don't need convincing about climate change wink .)
s_eldorado:
Definitely going to see it.

Coming tonight?

Happy Sunday - or as it's being refered to here as 'tree chipping day' smile Next year, no tree, no needles, no fuss - we're getting outta dodge for Christmas.

I'm thinking of trying to re-enable my former profile on hear: H2O and bailing on this one, I didn't realize I could do that when I re-signed up back in July... whoops... we'll see, but if...

eagles, wow. I don't see eagles from one decade to the next.

My new work year would have been a lot more productive if some of my colleagues had showed up tongue
s_eldorado:
Woofster is awesome!

I know exactly what you mean, I'm having the toughest time getting any work done right now.

Hope you guys had a super awesome New Years.

It's good to have a reliable source of flame, I think. One at work, one in The Backup Coat (the old comfortable warm scruffy one which stays in the car and has backups of everything in it - pencil+paper, fire, knife, pliers, hat, gloves...), one next to the cooker.
s_eldorado:
Advice on Montreal... hrm.. not much really. It's pretty damn cool - just be sure to get dinner before 10pm as a lot kitchens close relatively early. At least from my limited experience there.

Not sure if we're jamming tomorrow night but you're welcome to come by and scare kids with us. We have fireworks!

Ridiculous client deadlines currently ruling my existence... Forecast for next couple weeks is for continued mayhem with occasional moments of sanity and laughter, chance of madness skull

Sounds normal biggrin

Good luck with that. I hope your wife is recovering well.
s_eldorado:
Chance, you say? Quit speaking in past tense.

We missed you at the jam last night my man. But I know how it goes. Good luck and come back to us soon!

(If you can make it next week, that'd be awesome)

So last night I discovered a leak in the water line from the street to my house... water pouring out from beneath my concrete steps. City arrives at 10 to shut off water to my house - eek, but now I have water thanks to generous neighbors hose connecting to my house. This all sounds expensive to me...

Then today as I continue with prep...
