Some otherworldly force doesn’t want us to see the movie Hidalgo. Thrice we have planned to see it and thrice we have been denied by ourselves or others. Last night was a prime example, as our delivery from Grocery Gateway was over an hour late. For no real good reason from what I can tell… […]
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 […]
fixing the fan speeds in the Cavalier
j-body.org forums: HVAC Blower only works in two highest speeds – Our 97 Cavalier has developed this issue. Apparently it’s a fairly common problem in J-Body cars, and my brother-in-law’s Grand Prix has the same problem. There’s a resistor pack under the dash that limits the current flowing to the fan for low and medium […]
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 […]
Photos like this make me love the Newton.
The Stanford Newton User Group held it’s 10th anniversary meeting the other day! Without a doubt they are the longest-running NUG. Hats off to SNUG! photo by Adam Tow
