Hi Internet, I have posted some new photosets to my Flickr account. In chronological order, MK’s Surprise 30th Birthday, Bluesfest 2011, and from a trip to Aventure Lafleche’s aerial adventure. It is worth noting that these events all took place before Stephanie worked her magic on my hair, which is now beautiful. None-the-less, they [...] July 19th, 2011
This year I did something that I’ve wanted to do for a few years now: I purchased “festival passes” to the Cisco Ottawa Bluesfest and went every day*. I had the pleasure of Will’s company for the majority of the festival, too–it’s not the sort of thing you want to do alone. The purpose [...] June 22nd, 2011
I had a family-filled weekend. Thursday night I made a shrimp pasta, and visited with Will until I almost fell asleep. Friday morning Will and I went to the gym, then Starbucks, then joined Alex, Mom, and Aunt Shelley for lunch at the Golden Rooster. Then a drive with Nana, Shelley, and mom to [...] March 18th, 2011
Hello, world. Here are some general updates. Last night I woke my motorcycle from hibernation. Immediately it felt familiar and comfortable. I took it around the block a few times, as did Adam J., and it was generally a great experience. I rode to work this morning and the weather was beautiful. It was [...] October 13th, 2010
It feels like I’ve been quite “go” lately. I need some quiet time. I have to get some milk and other various groceries today. I also must run a couple more small errands. When I return home I have some laundry to do, and a few things to put away. Maybe I’ll also do [...] September 26th, 2010
I just had a housekeeping Sunday. I was in desperate need of one. I did laundry, cleaned my bathroom, vacuumed (upstairs only), and cleaned out the fridge. The fridge had a lot of food in it that was past its prime. I had amassed a huge amount of leftovers that, try as I might, [...] July 17th, 2010
Last weekend was packed full of adventure. My journey started directly from work. I had the pleasure of taking a 2009 BMW 750Li for the trip. This made the driving extremely enjoyable, comfortable, and easy. The first leg was Ottawa to Kingston. I needed to stop into Kingston to pick up my tent and [...] June 28th, 2010
I went to the International Chicken and Rib Cook-Off on Sunday after church. It was delicious. Alex and Matt came to the city to pickup a subwoofer but couldn’t stay for the cook off, in part due to an incident at a Tim Horton’s. Later in the day I had a milk emergency, which [...] April 28th, 2010
As of last night, I have finished another semester of school. I had two classes this semester, which meant two exams. My Managerial Accounting exam was held last Friday evening, and my Financial Management exam was last night. I was nervous going into both exams. I had many weeks to prepare leading up to [...] March 21st, 2010
It was a bit of a chilly day, but an eagerness to get the bike out in the warmer weather led me to pick my motorcycle up from Kingston. I drove it back to Ottawa where it sits safely in my garage. Now, I am quite tired after a long day (early wake-up, gym, [...] |
