Just a brief note: I'm really enjoying myself as of late (I'm VERY busy with everything from data entry to conference planning to classes, to work, to fun, YES fun!). Monday night's SLIS board games were extra awesome. I lost at Clue, I lost at Killer Bunnies, and I did reasonably well at Bananagrams. Edmonton… Continue reading Pirates and lectures and busy-ness… all in a few days of a SLIS grad student

So with FIP come and gone (it was a most excellent conference and gives me much hope for next year's edition), I've come to realize that I really really ought to make some decisions/plans regarding this upcoming year's conferences/conventions and whatnot. There's a lot to consider, even as I slowly grapple with the everyday. So… Continue reading Conferences and conventions oh my!

This weekend, I watched XIII: The Conspiracy with J.D. and totally found it both suspenseful and entertaining. Perhaps one day I should actually watch the Bourne movies as there seems to be a fair bit of similarity to the Bourne Identity from what I understand. I've been watching a lot of dystopian movies lately. I… Continue reading Another less-productive-than-I'd-like-to-be weekend, but I'm making progress and having a great time

So this has been (as of yet) another busy yet rewarding week. Monday was spent doing homework (reading mostly) and catching up post-Denver. Yesterday I ate awesome bake sale goodies to begin my day… … and I ended my day by falling on the ice on my way home from work, popping open my bag… Continue reading Another busy week (but I think I'm regaining balance perhaps?)

Firstly I did finally upload the few pics I got of the Oil Capital Kiwanis meeting at YESS (Youth Emergency Shelter Society) where Drago was given his VP pin. They can be found at: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2183097&id=120402019&l=1d81198050 This weekend while at the SLP conference we were treated to both a wonderful '80s session complete with the outfits… Continue reading Home from Denver (and the SLP Conference) armed with pictures!

Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I think you're spectacular. Then repost this [if you like] and spread the love.

… but maybe a little bit more stuffed up than I would otherwise like. The Inverness seems like a reasonable enough hotel that I'm really going to like the amenities here (case in point: free wireless!) but gosh the trip here was an adventure. Firstly, I had originally booked this particular flight in the hopes… Continue reading In Denver safe and sound…

Here is a list of >150 well known places (landmarks, cities, countries etc). Copy and paste this into a new note/post/blog and tag all your friends who travel and compare where you and your friends have been, and want to go in the future! Fill in the brackets as follows: [x] I've been there [!]… Continue reading Around the world in 80 days – For the travellers (meme from Karena)

Last night's party was great for putting things in perspective. Jenn and Dave's housewarming/Jenn's birthday party was wonderful: I met some new and excellent people and got to see and spend time in a wonderful house that Jenn and Dave have made into a great home. It's nice to see people so happy with a… Continue reading Still having trouble being productive, but otherwise having a good time…

As you can likely tell, I'm still being a very busy girl. More so lately as I'm getting into the swing of far too many commitments I think… and its hard not to procrastinate the important ones. Fortunately I'm deadline oriented and should still manage to get most things done but still it sure isn't… Continue reading Wingfield, Pandorum, and other events
