oh, what have I been working on?
I guess I’ve had no time to write. All of my previous entries scrolled off the front page! Our house is firmed up! Yay! We’re moving in in under two months! In advance of moving, we’re working on packing and getting rid of stuff we never unpacked from our last move, as well as trying […]
the subway blew this morning.
First the Sheppard line wasn’t running. I think. There was a complete lack of information and just a lot of people standing around. The collector didn’t even know jack. Instead of putting my fare in at Don Mills I went outside and got on the 85 Sheppard bus. The bus behind us seemed to be […]
Ohhh….. what a weekend!
Man. weekends. We had a bunch of stuff to do on Saturday. First thing was to go to see my sister’s jewelery teacher Shao to have our ring sizes taken for our wedding rings. Sylvia (my sister, currently living in Taiwan) is designing them for us and then Shao is doing the casting and carving […]
Holy Freakin’ I-Have-No-Time Batman!
Mortgage approval? Check.. Home Inspection? Check. Moved my desk at work? Check. Setup my new workstation at work? Check.. And Mandrake Linux 9.2 is damn slick. New UNNA server? Not quite, but damn I spent a lot of time on it… Spending time with Sandy? Lacking a bit, but valentine’s and her birthday is just […]
We’re buying a frickin’ house!
I feel like I should add another category: life-changing events. We’ve bought a house! At the end of April we’ll be moving from our current apartment in Don Mills to a two-year-old townhouse in Whitby. It’s gonna be awesome. I can’t wait. Time to start packing and saving!
Oh yeah.
On Saturday night we went to Linkin Park… along with Sandy’s brother and five of his “country folk” friends. I say that in the nicest way possible, because we had quite a time corraling them all on the subway from our apartment to the ACC. And when I say “quite a time” I mean “I’m […]
three components are NOT better than two.
Today was just one of those days where the more you think about a problem, the more you realize how much of a bitch it is going to be to solve. In this instance, it could easily be eliminated by just getting rid of one redundant component. But when doing that isn’t an option because […]
phones phones phones.
Seems like Nokia still has the most phones that have an actual infrared port. Given the cheapness of the hardware I don’t understand why all phones don’t have one. Anyways. I’m seriously leaning towards getting either a 7210, 7190, or 8390. The 7210 and 8390 are still current models, while the 7190 is older and […]
Someone build this mail client. Now.
This is IBM’s view of the future or mail clients. It kicks ass! I want it now! Of course, only IBM is stupid enough to publish their research like this instead of putting a bullet in the head of Lotus Notes and releasing this instead.
phone envy.
Okay. I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve chosen some poor phones in my life. Like our Uniden cordless phone which I just bought another rechargable battery for – the third one it’s had in over two years. At this point I’m thinking of building one myself. Or the Motorola V101 – when Sandy […]
