… as I'm heading off to BC with family on Thursday for my grandmother's burial and won't be back to town until Monday. Thus I have a tonne to accomplish including packing, working a full shift, seeing a Citadel play and more all before I leave town tomorrow night (yes I will leave town on… Continue reading It'll be a busy week…
Month: September 2010
Copious amounts of tea
Peppermint tea, chamomile tea, lemon tea, mango sunrise tea, green tea, white tea… it seems lately I'm consuming a lot of this marvelous beverage. And for good reason too — I'm trying to stay in the best of health and well, I've got a mild cold at the moment which isn't as amazing as I… Continue reading Copious amounts of tea
Games: Fruit, geography and more!
So yesterday was a good one: not only did I have a most excellent LISAA brunch, but I caught up with Justin, and then hosted board games at my apartment. It was perfect as the crowd was small but good and we played a nice assortment of games. First we played Sushi Roll, which was… Continue reading Games: Fruit, geography and more!
Apparently we're really good at trivia!
Out of the last three Kiwanis Trivia Nights I've attended our team has placed 3rd, 2nd and 4th. Not bad, if I say so myself, particularly since the teams haven't included the same people in each iteration. Last night we came 4th, losing the tie-breaker. It was a fun evening though, even if I didn't… Continue reading Apparently we're really good at trivia!
Interesting how…
… much difference a year makes. Last night's event at Fort Edmonton was a much different experience than the previous year. Certainly the food and drink was the same as last year, but the attendance was far different. There were far fewer people in attendance. That said, I had some great experiences talking with fabulous… Continue reading Interesting how…
Still feeling sick-ish but looking forward to tonight's party
at Fort Edmonton park! This is like the top socializing/networking event of the year for the Edmonton library community (well academic library community) and I honestly can't wait. Lots of good food, great people to talk to, and alcohol for those who are fond of that sort of thing. Today I slept in (gloriously), ate… Continue reading Still feeling sick-ish but looking forward to tonight's party
School and Health
These two are tightly intertwined. I'm still working out a schedule where I actually get everything I want to get done done this semester without a) burning out, b) not having balance in my life or c) actually putting in the hours I'm supposed to be putting in. That said classes are going rather well… Continue reading School and Health
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) and other thoughts on last evening.
Last night's Pub Monday was held at The Hat. I'm all for trying new pubs for the group, but I wasn't entirely too impressed with The Hat to be honest. The service was slow enough that we were questioning whether orders had been forgotten; several orders were mixed up or messed up entirely. And when… Continue reading The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) and other thoughts on last evening.
Is there a limit on the number of times one should change the date/time of a Citadel ticket?
… because I've already changed this one twice, and it may be a third time… a third and final time that is, because Eighteen Bridges is launching apparently. They're still using the website that Mihaela and I worked on (in part) with some significant changes and they don't seem (at first glance) to be crediting… Continue reading Is there a limit on the number of times one should change the date/time of a Citadel ticket?
Owls, Roadrunners and Coyotes….
This morning (yeah it was morning), I went to the movies! It was a preview screening of Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole and the film itself was really well animated: very beautiful to watch and made VERY good use of 3D technology. Yes, the film was predictable (it is after all based… Continue reading Owls, Roadrunners and Coyotes….
