E-Bike Interest
With the realization that my new job is only twelve kilometers (7.5 miles) from home, I’ve started looking at biking options to get there and back on better weather days. Living in Halton Hills, the name fits the location, and I’d have to deal with some rolling hills no matter…

Last Day at rocketgenius
Today was my last full day at rocketgenius. I’ll be doing a few things this weekend to help out before I start my new job on Monday. The last two weeks weren’t anything too special. I said goodbye to a few folks, but otherwise just did my job the best…

Writing on a Train
Since purchasing a laptop, I’ve only had the opportunity to write while on a train a handful of times and I found the experience very rewarding, so I can’t help but feel excited about what Amtrak is doing. Amtrak has decided, after a social media push and trail run to…

I recently applied to and was interviewed for a new job which I subsequently was offered and accepted. I will be the new Communications Manager for Envirotech Office Solutions. I have big shoes to fill as they bring the role in-house, but I’m very excited about the opportunity. I will…

WordPress Theme Changes Again
I’ve gone back to a customized Confit theme on my blog because I find it easier to read and navigate. I find it cleaner than the new Twenty-Fourteen and easier to customize and personalize. I know the team worked hard to create a really nice new default theme for WordPress,…

Gearing Up for My Twentieth Move
So, at the end of this month, I’m moving again. This time, I’ll be moving from my bachelor apartment above a convenience store to renting a house from a friend of Annie’s family. It will mean that things are going to be even tighter when it comes to money, but…

Not Feeling the Blogging Vibe
I go through periods where I just don’t feel like blogging, and I’m in that state right now. Even this post was hard to create. There are unfortunately some really great moments in my life that I didn’t record in a post, and I’m sad about that because my memory…

Singing in Choir
Last night, I sang at Annie’s Catholic church. I don’t have a good singing voice and I don’t like singing in front of people. So why did it I do it? Annie and her other choir attendees asked me to sit with them this week since they were low on…

Goals for 2014
Here is my post for 2013, and as you may or may not know, I didn’t complete all of my goals, but I did better than I thought when I wrote them. I continued to review them through the year, and it seemed to help make a difference in my…

Quick Christmas Rundown
So Annie and I made it through both my family and her family Christmas celebrations. Getting to Kingston was a total nightmare. Poor Annie white knuckled the drive the entire way from Georgetown to Kingston. The roads were icy, and people in Toronto are stupid about driving in such conditions.…
