I started this blog
I started a Certificate in Project Management at Ryerson
February 2006:
My first trip to Arizona as Brian’s girlfriend (while I was there we went to this [...]
top searched for terms in 2006
This is pretty interesting. Have a look at what people searched for (I think it’s in the US) in 2006. In a MediaPost enewsletter that I get, this was broken out even further by the author to indicate which market sectors use which search engines on top of more interesting details. Can you match up [...]

Not sure if you’ve ever noticed that I have a tab for my current Reading List, but I thought that I would archive the 2006 details here for, well, archival purposes of sorts:

shows what i know
I was thinking that I had to use up my stamps this week before I had to add that dreaded 1 cent increase they add every single year. And, when I went to find a link, I discovered that they are creating permanent stamps here, like the ones in England, so that even if there [...]

So it’s likely a coincidence, but I went out with a friend last night who I haven’t seen for about 2 years. We went for yummy thai food and caught up on the past few years (funny how now even though life seems to be moving at a more rapid pace, there can be a [...]

We had a lovely Christmas together this year. The best part was that Kevin slept in for the first time, so we didn’t get up until 8:00!! It was nice to see everyone open the gifts that I had found for them (and to open some myself). The fun part about getting older is that [...]

I forgot to mention that I finally finished On Beauty a few weeks ago. I must say that I adored Zadie Smith’s first novel, White Teeth, but couldn’t get into The Autograph Man (there’s still a bookmark in it), and I loved On Beauty for the first half of the book then grew disinterested in [...]

Brian and I always do our Christmas a bit early because we don’t actually see each other on the day of. Here’s what we did last year. This year was low key, but just as lovely. We went out for a super early dinner at Green Papaya (my favourite candida-friendly vietnamese/thai place). We go there [...]

Starting in the new year, I will no longer be termed an assistant, but have been elevated to the status of coordinator! Yay! I’m so so so very excited!
