So, I got myself a new phone finally! The lovely iPhone 4S no less. It’s pretty good so far. No glitches or anything. This is my first “big ticket” item from Apple that I’ve owned and I hope that it everything I’m expecting. I also hope that I’ll be able to get AppleCare+ when I go to the US on …

Book Binding
So, I’ve been thinking of trying this out for a little while, I need a hobby that takes me away from the computer for a little bit. Linds had suggested it once or twice in the past, and we’ve looked at websites about the process and processes. Today I dove in and gave it a try. I just used some cheap printer …
Things to do for free in Calgary, Alberta.
After some extensive research (A.K.A ten minutes on the Google) I have developed a comprehensive list of all of the fun and amazing things a person can do free of charge in Calgary! 1 — Go for a walk somewhere. There’s a lot of parks. 2 — Go for a walk somewhere else! … And, that’s it. Fuck
Brownies.
I’m making them. At Lindsay’s behest of course. I just remembered, after putting the pan in the oven, that I didn’t oil or flour the pan. Sadface. I imagine they’ll be delicious though. In them is flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, maple syrup, agave nectar, water, coconut oil, vanilla extract and heat. A vegan delight I imagine. It’s funny, …
I’ll call it a Poem
This way, it’s not whingeing. I don’t have anything to say. I don’t write on demand. I need a topic. This isn’t working. Something. Something Something, Write something. Write what thing? Is there any one thing that needs for me to write that thing. no
What do I want to say?
I’m tired. I look at myself and see me going to work almost every day, forcing a smile and acting like a good extrovert, then I come home completely drained. I’m barely able to stand once I sit down, so I find myself hunched in front of my computer looking at mindless comics and worthless crap from the dregs of the …
Forcing it.
Not much is happening here. I’ve been reading a lot. mostly Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series. It’s pretty okay; engrossing enough for the time being. I might be starting to get burned out at work, but I’m not sure, maybe I’m just starting to get cynical. Either way, I think some time off is going to be …
I’ve not done fuck all today.
That’s a double negative. I worked, at work, and that went well. I’m going to practice drumming in a little bit, and probably watch an episode of Farscape. I’ve also set up a mirror for this blog — useful, I know — at somethingeloquent.blogspot.com, just in case this one explodes or something. Every post I make here will automatically be cross posted at that site… …
Write what you… Something?
There’s some good advice floating about the Internets right about now from one Austin Kleon. I particularly like the bit about writing what you like, not what you know. I know lots of stuff, but I don’t particularly enjoy writing about all of it. And for the stuff that I like, I can fake the knowledge well enough.
I’m on a couch!
So here I am, laying on the couch shortly before I have to leave for a staff meeting. I’m bored out of my skull right now. I don’t really know why. I just feel like I should be doing something. I should go to the store and get TP or something. Or maybe I should read something or work on building a Christmas wish-list. …
