Just closed my last bug on this project.

ETA: fridaypeach informs me that the Solstice Parade is also ending at Gasworks next weekend. Goddamn hippies, geroff my* lawn.

ETA again: she further informs me that the parade is on Saturday, so Sunday seems likely to be fine, but if it's really awful I'd rather know ( Read more... )

Apartment in near-total disarray. Books all packed. Found my great-uncle's mezuzah and a few other relics, which means I can pretty much ditch the box o' crap it was in. I need a treasure box that's less at risk of being donated by mistake ( Read more... )

eta: Trying drinking vodka, not heating it. That sounded more my speed than operating such a complex appliance as the microwave. Vodka goes down smoother at 25° F ( Read more... )

gfish has posted a great narrative of the Mackenzie trip, here. Pictures!

I had my name change hearing today. As expected, it was far more nerve-wracking in the ten minutes leading up to it than the event itself - just a few questions, and I was the second of three name-change dockets. I've got a passport replacement form and a new driver's license in hand. :D

I am back from the Mackenzie River trip with gfish - got back Thursday night; have been occupied re-settling into the inhabited world since.

Twenty-six days and 1,570 kilometers traversed between Dory Point, on the mouth of Great Slave Lake, and the river's shore in Inuvik. There are hundreds of pictures between gfish and I, but he already uploaded one of ( Read more... )

gfish reminded me to poke my head above water... today is the last day before we go on the Mackenzie trip, the main symptom (if not the cause) of all that lifehacky madness for me.

I'm not forgetting that moment around 2am at Beth's, when the idea crystallized.
