I've never run so much in my life. My energy and the very core of my being is suddenly charged-up and ready to run everywhere and anywhere. In fact, I'm beginning to outgrow my usual running haunt -- the fabled Frog Pond. The beautiful Purcell's Cove Road Frog Pond which connects to Sir Sanford Fleming Park aka The Dingle ( Read more... )

If anyone is interested, I'll be doing the Rocky Mountain Stampede in Rocky Mountain House from June 9-11. I've registered for two of three roughstock events--saddle bronc and bullriding. I've been training for nearly two years and this will be my first amateur event (ever). Would love to see some friends there ( Read more... )

It's funny how you change so many times in life but rarely get the chance to stop and notice it happening. I, for one, can attest to never having had problems flying. I've been on transatlantic and transpacific flights and for those of you who can empathize, it can be a boring few hours. Not that we want our flights to be un-boring in a crash- ( Read more... )

I proposed to ME on Friday evening, and she said yes. I went to Build-a-Bear, made a cute teddy bear and put my voice on a microchip asking her to marry me. I picked up the ring after work on Friday and proposed in the front seat of our car on the way to a movie.

Preliminary wedding date is August 2007 in Rimouski, QC. More details to follow.

Right now, I'm sitting at an empty desk at John Hancock in Boston. While I would love to share my four-day adventure to Singapore last month, sadly, I have neither the time nor the energy. I'm heading back to Nova Scotia tomorrow and I'm losing a card game to the slumbermonster ( Read more... )

Halfway around the world in the span of four days was fatiguing. I slept like a rock for a few days afterwards but I kept feeling more and more exhausted. I saw my doctor, explained the situation, he sent me for some blood tests and a monoscreen. Everything came back negative except for the purple underscores beneath my eyes and the 16- to 18- ( Read more... )

My life is just too busy right now to consistently update this thing. However, I should mention that I am still gainfully employed with one of the largest insurance companies in the world. I've travelled around a bit due to work and had a decent Christmas in Quebec. I'm still madly in love with ME and we're on the right track ( Read more... )

Got the promotion. I'm now an "Analyst" with a significant bump in pay. I'm still with ME which means I'm still gettin' some. The new car is great. The new digital camera is a great. The new job is great with the only downside being that Christmas in Rimouski might be called-off this year. We'll have to see ( Read more... )

Yeah, so apparently my life is changing in some vivid ways. Firstly, I bought a new digital camera a few weeks ago... some people shit all over Sony products but I'm more interested in the movie-making aspect of this camera, not necessarily that it was 500 bucks and has a Carl Zeiss lens... I don't give a flying fuck... secondly, we bought a ( Read more... )
